Well those guys are just called creepy.
Yeah. I assume that terms like "slut" and "cougar" are bothersome because they represent a social judgment about your sexuality suggesting it may not be the right (traditional) kind. Although "creepy" is broader, I'd say it covers much of the same territory.
I thought the term "men" by itself insinuated that they want to have sex with younger women.

not that it's a bad thing...just that we know all these wild stories about your dates...and really...exploring caves isn't that far out of the realm of a possibility

Creepy guys would be the ones who actually do, I guess.

I guess it depends on what we're talking about here.

"Cougars" are 40-50-somethings that go out on the prowl for 20-something guys. Is a 40-50-something guy hooking up with a 20-something woman that creepy? Or are we just calling them creepy because they're trying to elbow into our market?

Isn't that the general consensus?

I would consider anyone hooking up with someone who fits in the age range of their real or potential offspring creepy, yes.

Age is just a number...sometimes people just find each other.

I think anyone (male or female) that exclusively sets out to hook up with someone inordinately younger than themselves, I think that is kind of fetishistic (if that is a word).

Alright, so are the cougars creepy? Or are just the men creepy?
