Happy Birthday Zac Efron

Zac Efron just got a little bit older today, 27 years old as a matter of fact. He was always a little too young for me but now all bets are off, I mean he was totally adorable in High School Musical but the name HSM was a total libido killer.

“You deserve to be kissed every hour, every day, every minute.”

Zac Efron’s line in The Lucky One trailer made me turn my head and loudly whisper in the theatre to my then boyfriend: “Zac Efron is a grown ass man now.” My ex rolled his eyes in response the way men do when they surrender to the fact the man in question is impossibly hot. If you really want to annoy a guy say, “Zac Efron is one of my favorite actors.”

This summer I freaked out about the image of him grilling in the movie “The Neighbors.” He’s certainly looks like many women’s fantasy type guy. Abs, blue eyes, great hair. But he’s still a whopping five years younger than me, which makes me feel like a total creep.

Why does a woman sound creepy when she likes a man younger than herself? It’s like immediate joke fodder. I know plenty of guys who waited with baited breath for Kendall Jenner to turn 18 so they could follow her on Instagram with a clear conscience. I am consistently horrified how extreme the gap gets in the younger woman older man industrial complex. Meanwhile women get smacked with the creepy label for going younger. Whatever, I don’t think any one would kick this guy out of bed.

I wouldn’t. (Ok that was creepy.) Happy 27th Birthday Zac.
