A
Cougar implies a woman in her
40's or later who is
on the prowl for young prey. She isn't after an equal relationship. In fact she may not be interested in a relationship at all, maybe just a one-nighter. She isn't interested in a man her age or older and small wonder: many men that age are out of shape, take women for granted, and generally are cheap skate poop-heads. Not all of them. Just in general.
A
M.I.L.F. on the other hand is an acronym for a
Mother I’d Like to Fu*k. Seriously. Isn't that nasty? In this case the woman in question is seldom a cougar (on the prowl), and she may not even be aware that younger men are interested in her. She goes about her business and is blissfully ignorant to the gross comments that youngish men say about her under their breath.
A
G.I.L.F. is an acronym for a
Grandmother I'd Like to Fu*k. In fact she is a cougar who has passed her prime. She's about 60 or older. Seriously. And she still gets young men. Super nasty.
Can a M.I.L.F. and a cougar co-exist in one person? Absolutely! In fact one feeds nicely into the other in a mutual exchange. The cougar who prefers younger men is pursued and receptive to young men who consider her to be a M.I.L.F.. It's a nauseating scenario. Hence the reason I find it so nasty. There are even cougar theme nights in some establishments where men in their
20s hook up with middle-aged women, if all goes well. Whatever.
