@feld I feel like these are not the same... Batman & Cyclops were full adult men interested in women. Nightwing & Spider-Man were young adults interested in their age contemporaries as they grew up.
The conflation is part of a whole problematic thing where mascs are not expected to have as many life stages as femmes are.
Like mascs have: child, boy, man(optional), villain
Where femmes have: child, young girl, girl, jailbait, young woman, woman, aunt, mother, crone with an option to turn villain at any point
