Cougar Women Taking Over the Jungle

Feast your eyes on the latest cougar couple.  Rachel Hunter, who is now 37, and her new boyfriend 24 year old Edmonton Oiler Jarret Stoll.  As we look at this picture, can't we imagine ourselves enjoying the erotic pleasures of a fantastically sexy romantic interlude? 

It's funny how things change.  When I was 30 I loved older men.  I looked for a man who was 45 or 50.  I loved their, sophistication, their charm and their knowledge.  I was like a sponge drinking up whatever brilliance they were willing to share. Sometimes I felt like Eliza Doolittle, being tutored by Professor Higgins. Now that I'm a boomer, all that has changed.  I can still imagine myself with the guy who is 40 or 45 except now, I have morphed into the Professor.

Older women have been given a bad wrap.  If we take care of our body, mind and spirit we still have lots to offer.  And fortunately, there are a number of willing participants wanting to find out just what that means.

According to a study done in April by the dating site PlentyofFish.com, more and more women aged thirty and over are looking to date guys five and ten years their junior.  It appears cougars are taking over the jungle.  According to Markus Frind, founder of PlentyofFish.com, Many people look for younger partners hoping for a more exciting relationship.  There's also the experience factor.  Many women are fed up with men their age who lack the stamina and skills to satisfy them.  That may not be true for all of us, but there are plenty of us gals who can relate to what he's saying.

A cougar woman likes herself.  She is sultry, self-confident and has the power to stop men in their tracks.  She's not the skinny, barely-dressed 25 year old - she's much more desirable. Are you ready for the spontaneity, sensuality and pure excitement you deserve?  If the answer is yes, consider yourself timeless.  You have an incredible presence, finesse and sexiness that comes only with maturity.  You, my dear, are a cougar!

I am definately a cougar... and have no shame. I do not persue the young men who ask me out. They are persistant and polite. Even seem to be much more considerate than their older counterparts. I believe most have more respect for an older woman, than the man dating a younger woman. I certainly feel that they appreciate me more than older men. I once was told by an older man to "respect my elders" on the first date... ya, I assure you there was not a chance for a second date. Younger men are still excited about life, and carry a passion that I do not see as much in older men. Older men seem set in there ways and are very resistant to change. I am a successful, beautiful, independent 41 year young woman. I blend well with men in their 20's and early 30's. I totally enjoy the feeling of being with a younger man. It keeps me disciplined with my own life, to look good and feel good. I wouldn't have it any other way. I no longer care what others opinion of my actions are. As long as both partners are adults and happy with each other, then age should not be an issue.

I don't like the term "cougar" - it sounds like a predator.

I have been married to a wonderful woman 17 years my senior for the past 14 years and we have a 12 year old boy. I'm 35, she's 52.

Sex isn't a big deal. Like any married couple, we're lucky to have time once or twice a month...so I wish people would stop thinking this is why older women like younger men.

I've never dated "older women" because they were older. I dated them because I like the appearance of a woman who looks like she's between 38 and 60. I suppose you could relate that to the guy who insists on having a skinny, tiny framed "trophy wife".

We both have our Master's degree. We're both entrepreneurs with our own companies. We're both happy. Age is not and has never been an issue.

And for the post below mine from "lurdabruzzi@yahoo.com" - seriously man, you won't attract anyone, even 15 year old girls your age if you keep talking like you've just texted from your cell phone... "coz" isn't a word.

I like the term cougar. I have always been asked out on dates by younger men. I am 46 and my fiancee' is 25 we have been dating and living together for 2 years. I am just starting to feel comfortable about our relationship. He has never had a problem with our relationship. At first I had a problem with my children. Then I was too embaressed to be seen with him in public. I have always had the feeling of being judged by others. Then the ladies that assume he was my son. He always laughed an got a kick out of it. But I do enjoy the relationship. We have a lot in common. But we do have our problems. I don't know if I am really a cougar. I do enjoy the life we have together. I know I would do all again for the extreme joy. So as one cougar to another I say go for it. ENJOY!

I have always dated older men. About 2 years ago I noticed that younger men were asking me out and older men whom I had dated were now dating women my daughters ages. I was dumbfounded. After several offers I decided to start dating but set a cut off age. No one under the age of my oldest child. I dated a couple and found them to be delightful and energetic. What they lacked in material things they more than made up for in energy and activity. I am now engaged to a man who is younger than my oldest and a few years older than my youngest. We all get along great and my children have asked me why I waited so long to join a growing group. I have laughed more, lived more and stopped worrying so much about gray hair and wrinkles. Younger men aren't after you for your youthful appearance. They love you for who you really are. They want someone in their lives who knows what she is and what she wants. They don't want someone who is still trying to figure out how they fit into the big picture. I have asked my soon to be husband why me. He has told me in different ways but always the same thing. I am comfortable with what I am and what I am not. I don't play games to make him prove his love for me and I have no problem with taking chances on new things. To all the cougar women out there, Kuddos. You have decided that age is simply a number and happiness is ageless.

I was married to a man 10 years older than me and we lasted for 11 years. I had no idea that I would have anything in common with a younger man until I met the love of my life. He is 17 years younger and he has given me a new lease on life.

Not only do I provide him with stability, attention and great sex, he in turns provides me with laughter, youthfulness and great sex!

We truly are in love and we both don't care what anyone says about our situation because they are not experiencing the electricity we feel when we touch.

Proud to be a cougar

I live with and have been engaged to a man 14 years my junior for the past 3 years. I used to
be very closed minded and was only interested in older men. What a mistake!!!!
I personally know several women that are cougars and they totally enjoy their relationships. This has definitely got to be
a growing trend. My fiancee' says that he enjoys an older women due to the maturity level and the sophistication. I am very active and sometimes he has a hard time keeping up with me and my adventurous ways. He says that is what is so intriguing. I have no doubt that if we ever broke up that he would seek another cougar!!!!!!

I'm a 52 year old woman.I've been told my whole life that I exude sex. I've always felt much younger then I am. 10 years ago I was dating guys 10 years my junior and still do. never has my age been a problem with these lovely Lads, and this was way before anyone thought up the cougar tag. For years I was told that at some point I would become invisible and for sure would have to cut my hair. Well, I haven't done either. I first heard of cougars about a month ago, but instead of the word cougar, this guy (an older man) called them coyotes. My first reaction was being pissed off that once again when we ladies want to have fun sexually we get tagged with a "bad" label. When I found out the real name I not only loved it and the concept but realized that I was one and had been one for a while.

Hey, I'm 29 and found a great guy who's 8 years younger than me. We go to college together and I sometimes forget he's younger because he has a younger sister and is protective of both of us. We're always on the same page and have a lot of love and respect for each other, so it's awesome. Besides being physically attracted, there is so much more to it than that if you're in it for the long run. I'm not really in this for my ego either, we just clicked big time and love being around each other all the time.

Thank you for defining a true cougar. I am really tired of reading about overly made-up, coiffed, nearly-desperate women who dress like teenagers, smoke, and want a lot of casual sex. I definitely identify more with your description. Thanks for showing the world "Real Cougars"!

I really enjoyed this post. I started am age gap dating site, Cougared.com last year because I kept reading about the trend, and in fact I saw it with my own eyes in bars and with one or two friends who started dating older women.

On my site we have loads of older women who are looking for younger men to date and they are far from desperate or needy ladies. The majority seem to be intelligent, sophisticated women who have decided that a younger guy more fits in with her lifestyle choices. It's a trend that I can only see growing, so it looks like the cougars are here to stay!

Anyway, keep up the great blog, and best wishes,
Oliver.
