Cougars

OK, so I was having a conversation at the bar and someone made a reference to "cougars" and was shocked when I had no idea what it meant.

Apparently cougars are older women you see at the bar on the prowl for young guys, which we would normally just call MILFs around here, but she said it's like a southern thing and it's more specific than that. Can anyone elaborate on this because I am interested to know more.

Just want to say that you aren't alone, this yankee has never heard of this term either.

Its not just a southern thing, I heard this term 2-3 years ago, actually, I think it was on Oprah. Its just older women who are "on the prowl" for young dudes.

If you listen to WAAF (Boston) in the morning they call any woman over 30 a cougar. Any woman over 40 is a double cougar.
