If a WL has reached the age of 25 and above, the maturity level may be there and they will be more stable. To us, we may not feel that there's anything wrong to marry someone that's much younger. The viet lady may just keep quiet about it. But the truth will be out when she mixes around with her same group and start complaining about the age difference of her and her husband and start to say `my husband is sooooo old' .

I always read SingViet's post and have tired neck after that (keep nodding with approval and impressed at the wisdom of his words).

Everything SingViet said above is more than true... but i just want to add 1 more point... money can compensate for the difference... if u give her and her family lots of money every month, then they will keep saying that u look so young.

Having said that... there is a critical age which even money cannot help u overcome it... and that is... u must not be older than her father!!! at least be more than 10 years younger than her father is important... as the gap draws closer, the money got to increase linearly proportionally to compensate for the situation... and if the difference comes within a figure of 5, now the money component have to increase exponentially instead... very steep.
