Is calling a woman a cougar a put down like dirty old man? Or is it a compliment?

    Is a cougar defined as a hot older woman after young men? Like a milf? Or just an older woman after young men?

    Personally I find it offensive, it suggests a predatory nature. I never chase younger men, they pursue me

    Depends on the attitude of the person calling someone a cougar and the attitude of the woman on the receiving end.

    Some are quite proud to be called cougars others not so.

    You are 35. That's hardly cougar territory.

    no clear answer to this, depends on the person. Cougars are my favorite by far! so I would think it should be a compliment but to each their own

    Cougar - I think it is a compliment.
    A woman who knows what she wants and gets it. Good for her!

    I agree that it can depend on who is saying or what's implied.

    Sometimes men over 40 just don't do. :wink:

    I'd prefer to be called a MILF. The term "cougar" makes me think of a lady in her mid 40's+ with botox, like all of those "Housewives." There's nothing wrong with being a cougar; I'm just not at that age yet.

    I used the term "DILF" once (which I thought was funny), and my husband was completely disgusted by it. So I guess it just depends on the person.

    So you're assigning is a negative connotation without being at the age yet. Got it. :smile:

    Good thing I'm not even 30 yet. ;) lol!

    Really though, all women are beautiful! Young and old. (Just have a thing for older experienced ladies. They don't play around or do drama. I hate drama)

    Quit lying. You know it's because women hit their sexual peak around 40.

    I am that age and my man is older than me. But I have been with younger men too. Life is short... do what makes you happy :) it's great when a younger man shows interest. And with that being said, just as good when a man my age or older. It's all good, who ever makes you happy.Whatever makes you happy :) love and enjoy life...
