Short clip from Anwar White (YouTube) giving dating advice about age gaps. The speaker urges Black women not to dismiss younger men and reports that many of their clients date men 3–6 years younger. They recommend a general age-range guideline of up to +10 years older and down to −5 years younger; for people aged 50+, they recommend flipping that to +5/−10.

Questions this video answers

Plus 10 years / Minus 5 years (i.e., up to 10 years older or up to 5 years younger).

Flip the range: Plus 5 years / Minus 10 years (i.e., up to 5 years older or up to 10 years younger).

Many clients are dating men 3–6 years younger.

What's your take on age gaps?
Well, I think it's really important for black women to date younger men, similar to what Tracee Ellis Ross said. Most of my clients are getting into relationships. We get women into relationships every other day in my program, but most of them are getting with men that are three to six years younger than they are. So don't shade those young boys that are hollering. Also, like, when you're dating and they're like significantly younger girl, entertain them, engage with them. Like, talk your is. Okay.
So I would say like, you know, plus 10 years, minus five years. That's kind of the range. But if you're like 50 plus, I would actually say like, flip that. Plus five years, minus 10 years.
Yeah.
