Here's the deal. Cougars prey on guys who are 19-25 who are at a tough spot in life. We're usually broke, fresh out of college and young in our careers. Girls our age arent impressed by our cars or our lifestyles.


Cougars are women who are 35+ who see us as no-frills and sometimes as projects. Somtimes we get taken out, bought nice clothes, taken to someplace better than Taco Bell for dinner. There is ALWAYS sex involved. 35+ women dont hang with guys in their 20s for intellectual stimulation.


Eventually the cougar needs stability in her life and a man with a good career. She cant go on forever free-wheeling it with young guys.

To me (and I'm a man in my 40's who lives in an area infected with Cougars) a cougar is a woman who seeks out sexual relationships with younger men...for the purpose of sex. Much like I do with younger women!!


It's not so much a compliment being called a cougar. But I don't look down on or judge women for wanting younger guys. We men have been doing it since time began. So...more power to them!
Good thingyou prefer younger women --you won't get "infected," LOL!

I recently had to stop a friend from referring to me as one. For me a Cougar is an older woman who is only interested in dating younger men. I am NOT that woman, and have NO interest in being that woman.


But, there was the other point made about ‘willing’ to date younger. I guess I would if all things were equal. Equal being I found them attractive (we all know that that is different for every one), I thought there was some chance that it might lead to a long term relationship and the younger man would be able to handle it, for the long haul.


Do I seek this out no! I’m only seeking out a relationship. The package that it comes in is something I don’t want to restrict.


BTW – I have been approached by younger men often, most recently at the beach, in a bikini, while exercising (all sweaty, yuck) and he appeared to be in his twenties. What gives? Why are younger men going after us older women? And, no I did not except his invitation.


I recently turned 40 and the "cougar" comments started immediately! Yes, I'm single and interested in finding Mr. Right, but I didn't seem to meet him in any of my circles. I even went through several VERY bad blind dates, set up by friends with men my own age. In the meantime, there was this very young, smart, yummy man on my softball team who kept asking me out. I wouldn't go because of the 10 year age difference and the different places that we were in in our lives. Finally, I went out with him, really just to get it over with... He may very well be the sweetest man I've ever met. He treats me like a princess, acts like a complete gentleman and we really relate on an emotional/social level. He's very mature (PhD from Harvard) andI've been seeing him for about 4 months now. He pursued me.


He does jokingly call me "cougar" from time to time, but I take it as a compliment. Some guys don't wantto waste time on the immature, party girls. Don't limit yourselves, ladies.... Get them young and raise them like you want them!


The "Cougar" has spoken!
roxtar....I don't think a 10 year age difference is enough to qualify you as a cougar, which I think is good. That is, I think with only a 10 year age difference a relationship will have a better chance of surviving than if it was much more. I'd think 'cougar' territory is more like 15+ years of age difference. Hope this relationshipworks out well for you.

I too get more attention from men 10 or more years my junior than from the guys in my own age group. One man even admitted that he isn't very experienced and wanted to have s e x with an experienced lady so that when he met his soul mate, he could impress! And that's been the general tone of the pings! I've received from these guys.


Since I'm not a large predatory feline I find the whole thing odd and funny but not particularly complimentary ;-/
