Cougars?
« on: May 03, 2008, 07:01 PM »

There is a growing interest on older women by younger men nowadays especially among celebrities. Nick Canon  just married Mariah Carey and there are rumours that Dwayne Wade has a thing for Star Jones. But my question is this, since this is not a new thing because men has been doing it all along, why are women who like younger men refered to as COUGARS?  Do we also have a name for 45 yr old men getting jiggy with 22 yr old women? Why is life and society so unfair to women?

LOL!! Neither do I. I'm really not a fan of either of them. I just didn't think that out of ALL the guys God put on Earth, Mariah Carey would choose Nick.

@OsunAmazon

The same reason why older men at age 35-55 attract dating younger women mostly college age between 18-25.

Too many older men reject dating older women- - -same age, NO REASON!!! Prefer opposite attractive in 10 years age difference! Therefore, no choice for too many single older women not find any decent guys same age, choose younger men BETTER THAN NOTHING!!!!

I'm not against it, the only problem I have with it is why those women should be quickly named by the society. Why give them a funny name?

I don't think a cougar is a funny name, I think its ok for a  woman to be with someone who is youger than her but when it gets to being a 8 years and over difference I think thats a bit much and vice versa for men.

I don't know why society gave a funny name 'COUGARS'.  My former pastor called me 'CRADLE THE ROBBER', that I never understood why he called me until I found out later it talked about age difference. (2 yr difference not bad) Angry  Angry

You ought ask someone who invents 'COUGARS'. I assumed that you have been watch DR. PHIL talk show about 'COUGARS' yesterday afternoon on the TV show (May 2, 2008).

Hmmmmmm I heard the same rumor too, but during the half time game, the sport reporter Dwayne  if they were dating, his responds was like "She get a very good friend" hmmmmmm friend in deed Lips sealed,if it's true that is disgusting ***vomiting on the floor**.
For a 45yrs old man dating a young babe, i call him Aristo Grin Grin.

Rarely  watch TV shows, Dr Phil, Oprah, Tyra etc. It's just that it irks me why men that have been doing this all these while turned around to give a "fancy" name to a women that followed their footsteps. Your pastor's remark on you may not go down well with some people especially this chic here. I don't care what he is. Imagine? Cradle The Robber? What is he?  Cradle The tyre?

LOl, when I heard the rumor I got goosebumps, and threw up in my mouth a little.

I don't think its true anyway because I think he's still married and Dwayne Wade and Star Jones don't even sound right in the same sentence.

Yea, when women are reffered to as Cradle the rubber, cougar, old hen etc but men remain playas etc. I wish the world will adopt your "aristo" baptism and keep calling them that.

Again, I used to think that 'aristo' means  extra horny sugar daddy? I don't think it's a befitting name for men that prey on younger women. Why not a name like 'He-Swine'?

I personally have dated a couple of older chics & it's not because I went out of my looking for them, it just happened that we both had a meeting of the minds.  Older chics for most part make good partners as long as you both have a good understanding. The focus of their priority is different, older gals want someone to kick it with & most times have gone through their period of discovering whom they are & accepting themselves. Suffice to say, what you see with an older chic is what you get.
When it comes to the intimacy I have been fortunate to learn a lot from them, don't be fooled by their age because body no be firewood  Grin Grin Grin Grin

Lol referring to my pastor's remark!!! Yeah, I don't care what my former pastor think! Too harsh to criticize among too many single/divorced women with children at my former church.

I rarely watch the TV show, yesterday i was channel-changing the word "COUGARS" caught me attention to find out what it is. New word to me!!! Those talk shows such as Dr Phil, Oprah, Tyra are not my FANS!!!

lmfao I see you are trying to play the gender role, but my dear you know the deal, that is how the world works, we can shout, fight, argue but men will always have power, but that doesn't mean it's the "Men’s world"

I see the overflow of wdivorced women with children strictly as mens fault. They are fewer than us in this world but they surely have a way of controlling our minds and making us feel that we are surplus which is not necessarily true. That's why most divorced women suffer from low self esteem and i think it shouldnt be that way. The pastor should be more interested in encouraging those women to go through life than calling them names. He's lucky I'm not in his church.
