According to Wikipedia the slang word “Cougar” is used to describe an older woman who prefers to date men at least 5 years their junior. Dr. Joyce Brothers notes that women don’t reach their sexual peak until their mid-thirties and sometimes older. Therefore, they are perfectly matched with a younger man who has more sexual vigor. Women today are taking care of themselves and often looking for younger men who can keep up with them.

Calling a woman a Cougar was initially an insult that meant an older woman who stalked and pounced on unsuspecting younger men while hoping for a sexual liaison. Women called Cougar were thought to be pathetic, lonely old women who preyed on immature young men because no one else would have them. My, how times have changed!
