Aunt May in Raimi trilogy is a voice of reason and provide moral support to Peter. MCU Aunt May is just sex object and often used as joke for Happy and Tony.

For what it's worth, I was never a fan of "old as dirt" Aunt May as she's usually portrayed in the comics.  It's a trope from a long time ago when parents, for some reason, were always portrayed as very old when the truth is that having children is something people generally do while they're still at or near their physical peak.  Go ahead and take a look at a lot of films from before the 70s, parents of even very young children are portrayed as quite old.

Yeah, I know aunts can be a lot older.  I've got an one myself that's like 50 years older than my baby sister, but it's still an obnoxious trope that I'm glad is dying.  Young Aunt May's a lot more fun anyway.

So you prefer irresponsable, casual sex-loving and hotter than your crush aunt May, over old, wise, caring and experienced aunt May? Cause i sure don't.

Spider-Man is from the 60's different times different costums. People were expected to get a job, get married, have children and act like adults as soon as they turned adults.

Sure she's fun for having casual sex with random dudes she just met, embarassing Peter and not even caring if he's gonna get himself killed being Spider-Man and all.
