    Oddly, any guy over 40 just becomes a perv when even talking to a younger woman. Why don't we get some really cool name for trolling young ladies?

    My husband is 18 years older then me, his friends have named him "that lucky *kitten*" :wink: :laugh: You could always just use that :tongue:

    Cougars, to me, are women who specifically pursue men 15 or more years younger than they.
    I don't see an older woman as a cougar if the man pursued HER.
    So some of those women in their early 30s who are sleeping with high school age boys are cougars.
    However: a woman in her 50s who generally does not date younger men, but is pursued assiduously (and is won) by a man in his 30s, is not a cougar.
    That being said, I don't think women who think about cougardom do so until they're around 45.

    I was called a cougar when I met my guy because I am eight years older than him, but now that we are married, I am no longer considered a cougar (at least that's what I'm told). I think these labels are stupid anyway! If two adults of legal age are attracted to one another, that's all that should matter. Consenting adults should be able to date whomever they please without being labeled.
    BTW, when I met my husband, I was 55 and he was 47.

    Maaan, I'm just getting used to this reply stuff. I mean to reply under the quote but it didn't work out. Anyway, my answer is any age where she is old enough to be the guy's mother.

    30-40 is a puma, 40-50 is a cougar, 50+ is a silver fox :drinker:

    LOL at this thread. Maybe I'm a cougar...maybe age really isn't that important when both parties are legal and mature.

    The average life span of a cougar is eight to thirteen years in the wild, but up to twenty years in captivity. As a cougar's sex is determined in utero, and the average gestation period is 91 days, I'd say a cougar is considered a woman at around 30 days.

    It's not the age of the woman that matters. It's the age difference between said woman and her "prey". I think a 10 year difference might qualify.

    I have been saying ^^ this for awhile now. People call me a cougar bc my boyfriend is 10 years younger than me. UH, the problem is a cougar is 40+ and usually has money. I am in my 30's - and im a broke B***. I refer to myself as a Puma.
    I am NOT A COUGAR!

    Rawr. lol

    So someone about 14+ years older than a person would be defined a cougar? Is that right?

    a woman who "hunts" for younger men is a cougar.
