Tracee Ellis Ross Sparks Online Debate After Sharing Why She Prefers To Date Younger Men

Tracee Ellis Ross has social media in full debate mode after revealing and explaining why she tends to date younger men. ?

While chatting with Michelle Obama and her brother Craig on their “IMO” podcast, the 52-year-old actress shared:

“Often I date younger men… A lot of men my age are steeped in a toxic masculinity and have been raised in a culture where there is a particular way that a relationship looks.”

The comment quickly sparked online chatter, with some users praising Tracee’s honesty and others raising eyebrows, especially when comparing her statement to male celebrities who’ve faced criticism for dating significantly younger women.

Critics pointed to names like Trick Daddy, 51, and Shannon Sharpe, 56, who is currently facing a lawsuit from a woman claiming their relationship began when she was just 19, alleging it later became abusive.

What are your thoughts? Is Tracee Ellis Ross being unfairly judged, or is the internet right to question the double standard?
