Why I Am Not a Cougar Woman

Grrrrrrrrrrr. I wish I was a Cougar Woman. I don't have the chutzpah to hunt younger men which bums me out. Cougar women how and where do you do this? Are you in caves out west; a feral group clad in animal hide feeding on unsuspecting bighorn sheep and flat abbed 35 year old boys with hair? Go girls, go! "Google" defines you as over the age of 40, financially independent , successful, confident, motivated, love your life and self. Are you having a membership drive or bake sale any time soon? Cougar women survive on a tasty cuisine of men at least 10 years younger. Yummy, but I've never been particularly adventurous about food. Curiously old men have preyed on younger women for years and they've been called "lucky" not some form of wild mountain cat. Rumor has it younger men are more energetic, fun, and trainable. The happy word is "trainable". Yet.... it sounds time consuming. I'm the lazy sort who always wonders when I get a new puppy why I just didn't buy a 2 year old dog. No muss, no fuss, they sit, stay and don't pee on the rug. I prefer this in a man also.

I dated younger and "trainable" once. He had all those good puppy qualities: cute, playful, energetic, youthful enthusiasm, stared at me adoringly and mindfully. Not bad huh? Was I crazy, what went wrong? For starters he never read one play by Shakespeare, one book by Hemingway, or F. Scott Fitzgerald, stared vacantly at me when I mentioned Hunter Thompson, no less William Burroughs or Jack Kerouac. No "Catcher in the Rye" in his personal history, or "Annie Hall" and "Easy Rider". Yes, there was a war in Vietnam and Watergate brought down a President named Nixon. "You were three when Kennedy was shot"?! Crap. My puppy man and I had very different life landmarks. Sadly, those aren't trainable. The flat abs were nice.

I confess I really do like puppies and will probably have another one regardless of the paper training, accidental peeing on the rug, and the time consuming lesson of "sit and stay". As for men...must come fully trained.

I'm young and I'm trained!! I sit and stay. I fetch new clothes for women and on my credit card. I cook and clean. I'm good looking and dress well. I can read and have a masters degree. I'm energetic, loving and a good lover. When making love I say good stuff - like "Oh baby" and "You're the best" And occasionally I talk dirty like "shit" and "damn".

The best part is everything I said here, with the exception of young, good looking, loving and a good lover is the absolute truth.

Ok I believe I am almost an expert when it comes to being a cougar...To answer your questions lets start by numero uno. Where do you find younger men, EVERYWHERE sweetheart, online, at the store, on the street, driving next to you, library (great place to meet people) at a bar, they are everywhere and they all have one thing and that is they are all ready for sex.
How do you get them? TALK to them, they do have trained ears already.
About your objection on why not date a younger man, well honey I don't know any woman that wants her man to whisper on their ears while having sex Shakespeare or Annie Hall or talk about Vietnam or Nixon do you? cos that's way strange honey..
About training them; Gail, honey darling we are not talking about 18 year old men are we? can you go for a 30 or 35 year old? They have been potty trained and some know how to cook and let me tell you, I've met women (in my case of course) that are on their 50's who act like a 4 year old and women who are in their 20's who think and behave like a 45 year old... But then again, you want sex with a younger man or you want to marry, have kids and grow old together, if it's just for sex and a boyfriend then you'll be ok with a 35 year old who has a job, know how to cut a steak, and can last a while in the bed chamber... Go for it.. TRY IT, YOU'LL LIKE IT...or would you want to be with a 65 or 80 year old man who carries reading glasses, a cane and a Viagra pill in his walled vs. a viral young man who can shake a martini, and carries a condom in his wallet, you decide... Talk about what happened in the 50's and 60's or talk about what has happened in the last 20 years and BTW in bed why talk about politics?... PLUS when you meet a guy who's hot, viral, and young and with energy your hormones will kick in and you will want sex 365/27/7...
