Another one out from the jungle, free to explore the mating habit in the city, she is the younger breed of mountain lion, like a cougar wild as she roars, and she is the “puma”. Young men are grabbing the chance to meet older women while some women in their late forties reject the “cougar” label, a younger set of mature single women who want to adapt the title prematurely are out in the limelight.
The Pumas, the Breed of Younger Cougars
The Pumas are new breed of wildcats, the thirty-something women ready to prey on young men either for sexual pleasure, long-term affair, and who knows commitment for lifetime companionship. There’s got to be an inner wildcat attraction for younger men to be on the hunt for growling cougars and pumas these days.
The pumas are just that eager to catch some boy-toy action and these guys are glad to oblige. The fact is that these breed of mountain lions are wilder but milder to handle. They have no excess baggage to deal with, no pretensions, and no inhibitions. They can be feisty as young men can drive them to be. Cougars and pumas are your kind of women in bed and they are out to catch the thrill they never have experienced before. Sex became another adventure when the partner is energetic and aggressive like these young hunters roaming around.
Playing is not really the older women’s game for love; it is romance to the extreme, passion that they have missed when they were younger. When a woman reaches fifty, she can now realize some rules of lovemaking are way different since they first dated. The old gray mare is no longer what she used to be. She could explode in bed! Intimacy is a bit more seasoned. The cub appeal works to tickle her fantasy. For these cougars and pumas, life would make a tremendous difference when with younger partners. The feeling of being reborn to be once again young is some kind of attitude.
Statistical Evidences
According to AARP The Magazine, the survey in 2003 reflected a whopping 34% of women in their early forties got exposed dating younger guys. Similarly, the poll surveyed from about 3,500 participants (comprising single men and women from 40-69 years of age) revealed 56% are separated from spouses, are divorced or widowed, 31% have been single. The same participants in their fifties (revealed a ratio of 7:10) were formerly married and remained single for five years or more. Studies show that divorce rate now compared to when older women were married twenty-five years ago, has sky-rocketed the number of single women in their fifties to be hunting for younger men in the dating pool today.
The Passion for Older Women
Why the young Romeos of the new generation want to meet older women? They said they have unique sophistication that magnetizes their soul. The young Romeo has penchant for older ladies and is over the issue of age stigma. Appearance is always a factor and the wonders of Science are on the rescue. But for some young men, there are more than looks. If an older woman feels confident about herself, that is more than a sex appeal. And if she has both, that is a bonus!
Older women are more independent and can be depended on when serious decision is to make. Mature women can handle stiff situation because of the benefits of time and experience.
Most of them are financially stable and have accomplished something in life; this has shifted younger guys to date them for reasons that they do not need to spend, think of gifts and birth control pills. They are discreet and can be told to hide from public eyes.
Aside from relationship for convenience, older women have directions in life; a lot are even attuned to high education. This is why younger men look on them as someone superior, they are emotionally aroused and eventually surrendering. If guys lack the ambition, the older partner’s understanding is immeasurable. As to these carefree Romeos, what is there to lose anyway? Older women can prey on their flesh in exchange of security. We never know where the road could lead to.
Taboo/Double Standard Mentality
It is no longer surprising that cougars slink into the mainstream. But to some, there is still an issue of taboo that surrounds these weird types of relationships. It may sound creepy and awkward having a toy boy on her side, that is, if the age difference is big. But if it’s something like ten or fifteen years, the relationship is no longer unusual. There are lots of them in our society. Hollywood stars and celebrities enjoy the benefits of such age-spanning relationship.
And why the double standard? The safe answer is that there must be a scientific explanation on procreation regarding concentration of species. That is basically a thing of the past. Cultures diversify, people change, and so does norm. Putting aside that notion, Cougars are no different with Dirty Old Men. If aged men can get themselves younger women, why can’t older women follow suit? If the mentalities of having younger partners can make you feel like you were in your twenties go for it, meet older women, why mind some people’s opinion when you do not ask for such. It’s your life.
