"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?

I would consider anyone hooking up with someone who fits in the age range of their real or potential offspring creepy, yes.Arthur Dent wrote:Isn't that the general consensus?Popeye_Card wrote:"Cougars" are 40-50-somethings that go out on the prowl for 20-something guys.

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?
