Is the age gap a thing of the past?
These ladies think it is.

Mothers lock up your sons!

For a 20 year old woman to date a 40 year old man, it is not such a big deal. But swap genders, and suddenly you have a recipe for sharp whispers, long stares, and ‘pukey’ faces as the couple sits in the back corner of a bar, snogging each other like lost puppies with a t-bone strapped to their forehead.

That’s not the way it is supposed to be. Didn’t we grow up with the star quarterback finding his cheerleader in chemistry class? He’d drop a toad down her blouse, she’d burn a hole in his letterman’s jacket with the Bunsen burner, and the two would fall in love, marry, and make many beautiful babies.

Guess not! Not in Hollywood anyways…

What The Hell is a Cougar?
A cougar is a woman (35 or older) who has chosen a sexual partner who is at least eight years her junior. Another rule of thumb is to take half the cougars age, then add 7 years onto it. If he is younger than the result, she probably caries pacifiers and candy with her when she goes out to the local bars.

The “cougar” word itself translates to the tight-fitting, animal prints they supposedly wear. It also signifies the crouched leaping motion they make each time a younger man walks within 5 yards of their walking stick.

Don’t Bring One Home to Mama!
Considering the age similarity of a cougar to her lovers own mother, you can be damn sure she will see her as competition for a starring role in her son’s life. She will not express this, but instead choose her words more carefully, such as, Isn’t she a little too old or Don’t you want to have children someday?.

The father will just stay out of it, realizing the comment, “I’d do her,” would probably not add much validity to the argument.

What About those Rich, Old Dudes?
In a 2003 pole of single women over age 40, it was found that 34 percent were dating men up to 30+ years younger. According to an AARP study, one of the biggest complaints of women dating men their own age, is that they have too much excess relationship baggage.

Many cougars accuse men their age of being stuck in their glory days, wearing the same football jersey, listening to the same old music, and perhaps even wearing the same damn underwear since 1968. Women are very different from men this way. They like to keep up on the latest fashions, embrace the new.
