I think its less easier to get an older girl, that a younger girl.
    You'll notice I said that this is the minimum. You'll also notice that the 30 year old in question deserves some sort acknowledgement(applause, a trophy etc)for his deed.

    If the 30 year old in question was Orlando Bloom, I'd have to congratulate the lady

    Most of the people who don't like Tokka are the people who like Suki. That's why...huh?

    I'm still thinking that getting an older girl is a lot more complicated, and even Aang could have a lot of difficulties to get Katara's heart, even if it could show that way, I dont think its really possible. thats why I'm saying that Tokka and Kataang are maybe impossible.

    i agree! toph has a crush on sokka....but that's it its not like if toph says hey sokka i have feelings for you, and he's gonna say OMGosh really, i have obviously felt the same way.....yue and suki are nothing compared to you!

    .....besides even if he did (just to amuse you) toph might end up the same way as yue and suki.....DEAD


    do we know for sure that suki is dead or is that just speculation.

    what i am interested in if aang gang thnks they are dead or not only then will i let tokka out of the harbor, it definately is sailing though

    I would say that tokka has sailed in the sense that we now have concrete proof that toph likes sokka. However i'm not going to say that they'll end up together. A ship can always sail, but it can always sink too

    I do not beleive Tokka is gonna happen. But it's not simply the age difference but also the position of the genders. Kataang is acceptible because the male(Aang) is courting the older female(katara). If anything Aang would get respect for doing so(from his peers of course, not adults).

    But with Tokka the roles are reversed. The older male with the younger female. Sokka's peers would question why he is with her, when there are other females much closer to his age.

    I find the general rule of thumb is to take your age, divide by 2 and add 6. That is the minumim age you should be dating.

    ex age 18
    18/2 +6= 15

    ex age 22
    22/2 +6= 17

    ex age 15(sokka)
    15/2 +6= 13.5

    This works because at young ages when you should start dating 13-14, you should stick with people your own age, as there can be a lot differences between your friends and what kind of activities you can do.

    At older ages this goes away, and by 30
    30/2+6=21
    A man who can pull that off deserves a high five.


    No, its too a big difference, just take your last example, its near 10 years difference ! Its just too high.

    my parents have a 10 year age difference, never bothered me before, but this formula works, if toph were katara's age then definitely, i would ship it for sure, but she's not hit puberty yet (at least i doubt it) so no, no tokka for me.
    ...but kataang ftw, aang is definitely going through puberty, compare his voice in ep 1 bk 1 to the most recent episode.

    in TODAY'S WORLD for a younger age it might work, but after the one with the lesser age reaches 18, it is the complete choice of the couple, if a 22 year old wants to be with a 50 yr old, it is their choice, even if the formula says the youngest is too young (50/2 + 6 = 29)

    also remember that all changes depending on culture and year

    in the world of the 1820s, lot of 14 or 15 yr old girls married guys that were at least 30, sometimes in their early 40s, today many states would not allow a 20 yr old being with a 16 yr old, even if the "formula" allows it (20/2 + 6 = 16)as there has to be not more than 3 yrs difference if one is less than 18; and a few states would not allow an 18 yr old being with a 15 yr old (18/2 + 6 = 15), as they are strict that someone under 16 can't be with someone 18 or older; or a very low number of states will not allow an 18 yr old being with a 17.5 yr old, as some states laws are very strict and don't allow someone over 18 being with someone under 18 even if it is less than 1 yr difference
