A lot of media buzz about cougars lately. Mass media trends and TV in particular annoy me so I try to disconnect from it as much as I can...I watch less than 1 hr TV a week although I inadvertantly pick up trendy news from miscellaneous sources.
I see more women being interested in younger men than used to be apparent years ago...at least it's more openly obvious than it used to be, and I believe it to be a real phenomenon. To me it seems logical that as women feel more freedom to express their sexuality, they will expand their interests into less "mainstream" directions, like younger men.
As fresnelly said above, I see the recent media hype as a vehicle to take advantage of the concept as a marketing opportunity...sell sell sell. Let me guess what products are advertised during the TV shows???
I saw one of the hottest "cougars", not on TV, but in real life the other day...of course to me she's a gorgeous younger babe of only mid to late 40's. A young guy detailed my car and when I went to pick it up his mom came down to open the garage for me...I almost fell over but managed to maintain some composure so she doesn't realize I'm a stupid jerk and we had a nice conversation so it seems she's smart and has a sense of humor, too; she was painting the living room and I heard she's a great cook...virtually perfect! Later I told him I hope he doesn't take it wrong and I mean it respectfully, but "...your mom is freakin' gorgeous, dude!..." ...she's single, too, though I'm not in the market so to speak, just appreciating the beauty.
