The only time I ever find big age differences to be "icky" is when you see someone who's, like, 19 years old sleeping with/dating/marrying a really, really old person. And that's just because I suspect that somebody is being used. If I knew the facts and determined that wasn't the case, I wouldn't complain.
I personally wouldn't want there to be more than about 10 or 15 years age difference with the women I date (since I'm 30, I wouldn't date women under 18 for moral/legal reasons, but you get the idea). I wouldn't want to be an active, healthy 40 year old man with a girlfriend or wife in her 70's or 80's who couldn't go out and do much. Nor would I want to the opposite; where I was the really old guy who was too physically fragile to go out and have fun with my young girlfriend/wife.
