I have noticed (even in this forum) women are referred to with these "alternate" names which have been created/adopted by the media? What about the men?

What is the equivalent skank, MILF or cougar for a man? I'm all for keeping things equal, you know!

the term "DILF" is fairly common.

I don't know that your other terms have male counterparts.

In general I think derogatory names are more accepted for women than men.

There's sugardaddy for the older man with a younger woman. Not sure how many men are offended by it, even though it implies all they're good for is their money when they're old.

Derogatory Man Names:

"Dirty Old Man"
"Perv"
"Sugar Daddy"
"Man Ho' "
"Cradle Robber"

Nah. I don't know the basis for your opinion, but I don't agree with that.

I was thinking that, but you've got the counterpart "Sugarmomma".

Cougar doesn't imply financial assistance, like sugardaddy.

"Dirty old man" is about as close as I could come.
