on a similar note to your discussion about twitter i keep seeing the SAME tiktok where the girl is doing ‘dirtbags with teenagers’ - which is imo completely valid to call out but i find it wildly frustrating that she uses a photo of Elvis + Cilla’s wedding and labels them ‘14 and 24’ - i absolutely think that it was borderline creepy of their relationship to start - her moving + living at Graceland and still attending high school does give me the ick BUT in practically the same years my grandmother was also married + pregnant at 17 to a man quite a few years older than her and it was absolutely completely normal - it just WAS a different time then sorry 🤷🏼‍♀️- and it’s so frustrating for it be misconstrued as though they MARRIED at 14 + 24 when all of their own comments about it make it clear the relationship wasn’t like that until later. It just feels unfair when he can’t defend himself and when priscilla tries it’s dismissed - and if you DO try to defend them in the comments you get completely shut down! saw the similarity with the twitter convo and just took the chance to vent - sorry!!

don't be sorry, you're welcome to vent :)

personally, their age gap never bothered me or gave me the ick or whatever, because it was consensual. priscilla was in love and people oftend tend to forget that not every girl in a relationship with someone older was/is being groomed. i've been in a similar relationship when i was younger so i would be a hypocrite if i would sit here and say that such a relationship isn't okay.

this is why i'm never on tiktok either LOL. i go on there very rarely and when i do, it's to watch dumb videos of people doing dumb things when i need a good laugh. when i come across elvis edits, i don't even open the comment section because i just know it's a mess in there.

i truly hate the internet sometimes. people need to go outside and get a hobby.
