Seriously, because I've danced all my life, people who dance swing are known as 'swingers' so as a young person I didn't know the term had another meaning. I wonder how many people I've given pause to reflect when I told them I was a swinger.
Women, do you consider yourself a cougar?
Will you become a couger?
Men, have you been, or are you in a relationship with a cougar?
I would never have a relationship with someone considerably older than me, but I did hook-up once with a very attractive 44-year old lady for a one-night-stand when I was 21.
I've always had the "MILF" fantasy, but now thats its fulfilled I have absolutely no desire to do it again.
I am 20 and would love to meet an older woman that I could at least talk to without having to shore up her withering sense of self-worth.
For some reason all of the local girls my age have relegated me to the position of "guy they come crying to". While having that close of a friend is nice, sometimes something more would be nice as well.
Well, I'm 47 and would consider going out with someone age 39-53 (if they can keep up with me), but I'm not looking for a one night stand so not sure if that makes me a cougar or not. Lately, the only guys asking me out are 35-37 year olds--have been turning them down but you never know, may say "yes" one of these days. It really just depends on the emotional maturity of the guy.

I would never consider myself a "cougar", but I have been in a relationship with a guy who is 14 years my junior for over 9 years. When we first started, I was very reluctant to see him because of the age difference. It turned out that he is wise beyond his years, very intellectual, extremely well educated and worldly(not to mention very sexy). Seems to me that age difference is less important than common interests, goals, values, etc.
Younger men hit on us "older" (but not OLD) women all the time, especially in my line of work. One thing that older women need to be aware of...dating someone much younger could become an issue if he wants kids, etc. Most of us have been there, done that and don't want any more.
I'm not sure I get why young men would be attracted to significantly older women. There are so many cute young single girls out there. I'm 40 and view guys in their 20s as kids in "that" sense. When I see an attractive one I think, hey, if I was 21 I'd be into him. But that's where it ends.
