School For Aspiring Cougars — Hilarious or Horrifying?
Mark your calendars, cougar-wannabes! November 6 is your big day. Before the California Cougar Convention takes place at the Beverly Hills Crowne Plaza Hotel, cougar expert Lucia (no last name?) will host a cougar tutorial.
Do Tell: What Younger Guy Would You Go After?
I dislike the word "cougar," but I've got no problem with women going after younger men. After seeing Joseph Gordon-Levitt in (500) Days of Summer and in this photo on the set of Inception, I think I have a new younger-man crush.
Gordon-Levitt isn't that much my junior — it's not nearly as extreme as my 30-something friend's thing for Zac Efron — but he's baby-faced enough that the crush feels a bit cougarlike.
The Top 15 Movies With "Cougar" Characters
I loathe the word cougar — used, for the most part, to try to humiliate women who date younger men (their "prey," known as cubs). But for better or worse, it's in the lexicon, which means that the idea that older women can still be sexy — and sexual — is out there, too. The following group of films shows that the cougar's been around in popular culture for a while, that cougar/cub desire is a two-way street, and that these couplings can be good, bad, or downright scary.
Cougars: The Manual
Ugh, along with the acronym MILF, is there a worse word than "cougar" to describe an older (read: older than 30) woman who remains a sexual being? (I know, I know, cougar describes a woman on the prowl for younger dudes.) In spite of all that, I still think this video is hilarious. I love how, after they define cougar ("an older single woman who frequents clubs and bars looking for innocent young men she can have passionate hate sex with") that guy goes, "Yeah!"

Do You Find the Cougar Concept Offensive?
Unless you live under a rock, you know that "cougar" is a term for an older woman who likes to "prey" on younger men. While it can be used in a derogatory way, some older women are reclaiming the term as a way to express their virility.
On the show The Cougar, a seemingly empowered 40-year-old Stacy has her pick of the litter of men half her age, who are all competing for her attention.
Sarah Haskins: The Cougar's on the Prowl
In the past "cougar" may have been a demeaning way to describe a single woman preying on younger men, but TV Land's latest reality show, The Cougar, is reclaiming the title for all women who like to date men younger than their children. The 40-year-old star Stacy feels like Eve in the Garden of Eden, surrounded by men in their 20s who show her their abs, jump in pools, and make her cocktails. Check out these highlights from the season and Sarah Haskins's take on the ridiculousness.
Stacy Anderson Is The Cougar
Meet Stacy Anderson, a sexy, intelligent, 40-year-old real estate agent who's done really well for herself and her four children. Married at 16 and feeling like she lived her youth for her ex-husband and children, Stacy's now ready to PARTAY, mmkay? find true love with a guy in his early 20s.
Meredith Vieira to Navy Pilot: "I'm an Old, Horny Woman"
Should Max Shuman of Virginia Beach, VA, want to file a sexual harassment charge against Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? guest host Meredith Vieira, he will have no trouble providing documentation to the authorities.
Unbeknownst to him, the young (and yes, incredibly hot) Navy pilot walked into a cougar's den of lust and inappropriate comments.
Do You Date Younger Men?
Author Candace Bushnell might be married to a man 10 years her junior, but don't call her a cougar. In an op-ed out tomorrow in More Magazine, the Sex and the City writer laments the fact that women who break out of traditional roles are then labeled with a derogatory term. We have "ballbuster" female CEOs, "bitchy" politicians, and alas, "cougars."
