My husband is 16 years older than me. I've been told frequently it's weird or worse. We were both adults when we met, so I just accept whatever people want to say. I'm going to stay with him so it doesn't matter if they find it weird.

I caught some flak because my husband is 8 years younger. I reminded my family that they let my mom get married off at 14, and nobody brings it up anymore. Tennessee (USA), if you're wondering.
