Hypothetically speaking if I a 18 year old man paid a 48 year old woman to have sex with me and I wear a condom and we both consented to it is that morally wrong or is it morally okay?

In my opinion I think it’s morally okay if a 18 year old man pays a 48 year old woman to have sex with him as long as they are both consenting to it. Because what they’re doing is completely harmless.

    Morals are subjective.

    Many people would say paying for sex is morally wrong, regardless of the age.
    Many people would say an age gap this wide is morally wrong, regardless if it’s in exchange for something.
    Many people would say it’s morally wrong to have sex out of wedlock, regardless of age or exchange.
    Many people would say that two consenting adults is all that matters.
    Some people would argue what “completely harmless” means.
    And some people would argue over the legal or moral differences between “adult” and “of age”.

    What I would personally add to the conversation is that a condom has absolutely nothing to do with the situation when you’re questioning what’s “morally” right or wrong.
