Piper is married to Leo and there is Wyatt and Chris. Prue isn't there anymore. Phoebe and Cole was together. Paige came for Prue. To make the P3 complet again. So I can not form a judgment. But there is " still " a difference. Do you like what happened to Cordy and Connor? And is has really nothing to do with the age difference. Or am I the only one who dislike it?
Mary: If you are in love with a guy why would make love to his son who is younger than you.
I found these views in a thread so you were not alone.
Connor was 18, Cordelia was 21/22. Why are people so disgusted by it?
It's TOTALLY not the age thing. Can you say Bangel? That was worse. It was Cordelia. They raped her. But......it's ok in the end. It did what it was supposed to do, and make me go OHMYGAWD! NO!!! NOOOOO!!!!!
He did treat her like a mother even when they were intimate with each other...now I'm having horrible images of "mommy's not happy, someone's gonna get a spank"...
It was icky because she and Angel had a relationship of sorts which puts her firmly back in the mother figure camp, so it's a bit like sleeping with your step-son, which is gross because blurring or diminishing the lines between parent and child is very damaging to the child and is a dangerous abuse of responsibility from the parent.
I think the age thing matters too - the fact that Charisma is in real life is more like ten years older than Vincent (Connor) was a factor. She LOOKS much older than him and people just aren't used to seeing that on TV

Women characters do not have to be having sex with the lead to be important to the story.
