IA, but I'd also add that if this was the reverse, I'd find women in the mid-30s age range hooking up with 19/22 year old men creepy too. The same sort of fetishistic dynamic goes on there too.
I tend to be okay with age difference in m/m or f/f ships, but I'm okay with Finn/Poe or Poe/Rey because their ages aren't clearly defined in the story. I know they are in additional materials, but I think most people are only going off the movie and guessing the ages. I've seen a range of fics portraying Poe as Oscar's actual age of 36 or as late 20s.
I've noticed that people in fandom have a habit of aging down characters.
