"Would I date a guy who's 41?" - Pokimane talks about being in a relationship with a "much older" person
Earlier today (May 21, 2023), Pokimane went live on her channel and commented on popstar Dua Lipa dating Roman Garvars, saying:
"Yo! Okay... the reason I was like (the streamer gasps)... is because... I never knew this. But, Dua Lipa is 27. She is a year older than me. And she's dating a guy who's 41. Which is interesting because it makes me think, like... would I date a guy who's 41?"
The streamer began reading her viewers' opinions. While some claimed they would date a 41-year-old, others shared a mathematical equation. After reading this, Imane responded:
"'I would date a girl who's 41.' Are you in your 20s? '41/2 + 7 = 27.' Okay, I know there's this like, equation for what is acceptable. I'm not talking about what's acceptable because... it's not a crazy age difference. It just got me thinking, like, 'I could be dating someone who's 40!'

"'Past like 25, who cares?' No, no! I agree! I'm not saying I care. I'm saying... it's never crossed my mind and I've never... I've actually never even had a close girlfriend, who dated, like, a much older man."
The conversation concluded with Pokimane expressing curiosity about what it entailed in a relationship like this.
