if that were Rudy’s wife - almost everyone on this site would be calling him a “dirty old man”. that’s the issue.

I wouldn't be calling him a dirty old man, unless he'd dumped his older first wife just to marry a younger woman. In Fred's case, he and his first wife had been divorced for several years before he met and married Jeri.

And to those who might wonder what women like me think of Jeri and Fred, I say, "Dang, she's a lucky gal!"
