I laughed. And then I got curious and looked it up. Kate Winslet was 22 during the filming of Titanic. Her character was 19.
The joke is about actor Leonardo DiCaprio's dating preferences.
For context:
Jack Was 20-Years-Old In Titanic - And Leonardo DiCaprio Was 21.
I'll continue the comic and say that she only said it because she knew he was a creep.
Leo basically follows McDonald's hiring policy.
Real life Mr Peanutbutter.
I genuinely don't get it
I think 27 was chosen specifically too. 26 would have been a tighter upper bound.
ps: just noticed a different version was posted below before, sorry for the repeat
I love this graph because of how succinctly it summarizes info. But I also hate this graph because it is missing like 10 or 15 other women he has dated of several ages that break the neat pattern. Also, it hides how only like two of those relationships were truly serious, the rest are gossip and tabloid speculation from having seen him “next to them”. It is all very speculative. He does have a weird thing for younger women, but I think that part of it is that most single women on his social circle are going to be aspiring and upcoming super models.
Leo has a thing about dating women of a certain age IRL. To a hilarious degree. Nearly every one of his openly admitted girlfriends were dropped at the same age, where shortly after, he would find a younger woman to date and start the cycle anew.
Leo is a pedophile. He won't openly date a child but he will go as low as he possibly can without going to.jail
Edit: I get it, you guys don't think so, but lets wait and see. I'm a woman and have known some guys that only date very very young women in my life. I was a young woman at some point too. Believe me he would date a 16yo if he didn't had so many lights on him. But...let's wait and see... things are coming up

Leo’s behavior isn’t very socially acceptable, but he isn’t a pedophile.
His explanation is that he doesn’t have any interest in starting a family or having children, and he thinks that the drive to do so for women kicks in in the mid-to-late twenties. Women he dates know this going in, they know it’s never going to go anywhere real, they know there’s an end date. They get to participate in his lifestyle, they get to meet a bunch of important people, etc, in exchange for a sexual relationship with a very wealthy, attractive man.
They’re young, but they’re adults capable of making decisions for themselves. Maybe some will regret it later, others won’t. But regardless, it’s a mutual agreement between adults.
Gross? Creepy? Yeah, especially the older he gets. Sexist? Oh absolutely. 100%. Pedophilic? No.
Edit: fixed a formatting typo
Leo is a pedophile
Doesn't actually do anything with children
lol
It's gross, but has nothing at all to to with pedophilia. 18+ women don't have pre-puberty child-like features.
He dates women that are able to vote, are you saying that women at this age can't manage themselves ? Pretty sexist innit ?
It's pretty fucked up if you accuse him of that without any real evidence. Do you have any?
(Many people agree that he likes to date young women and that's creepy, but it's not nearly as messed up as what you accused him of.)
The bar is kind of low these days, so the fact that he doesn't go lower still somehow makes him better than a large chunk of famous people.
sounds like we need proof
27 stone? Ah yes fixation on a single explanation. Go you 14iq downvoters
