about the whole cougar thing.
At what age is dating an "older" woman not considered a cougar? Example I'm 37 and I'm not looking for any status thing like getting with an older woman. Is there an age thing involved with the whole cougar thing? |

Ok maybe I phrased that wrong.
what is the age diference between a man and woman for her to be considered a cougar. And is there an age for men that it doesn't matter if the woman is older? |

I don't know what the age gap is. But I think any woman who is younger by more than a few years would be considered a cougar. Frankly, I hate that label, I think it's demeaning. Society sees nothing wrong with men dating younger, but if a woman does it, she has some horrific label slapped on her.

Not really into the label thing myself but seems that most that use that label there is 15 years or more difference between them not really sure myself not into labels. But now over 50 they are actually called Jaguars is what I read not long ago
 Cougars are those up to 49 years old. Have no clue where it all steamed from. But does it really matter as long as your with someone you want to be with?

ok - seriously...guys 26+ don't use the term cougar...do they?
i always thought that was kind of a mrs. robinson or stiffler's mom kinda thing... of course for some people age really doesn't matter very much so such terms just don't apply...

Here ya go found this one
 Question: What is a cougar? The short answer: A cougar is an older woman who is primarily attracted to and has sex with with significantly younger men. Answer: The most commonly-accepted definition of a cougar is a woman 40 years of age or older who exclusively pursues very young men. The onset of the cougar years is hotly debated. Some feel that a cougar can be as young as 35, but women of this age would not be viewed as cougars unless their sexual conquests were no older than 25; the ten-year age difference seems to be an unspoken but accepted minimum between partners. Typically, cougars prey upon men almost young enough to be their sons. Thus fortysomething cougars would be attracted to men in their 20s, and fiftysomething cougars would pursue men in their 30s and so on. Some cougars are less interested in a relationship than a sexual conquest, perhaps enjoying the fact that they are physically appealing to men who are considered to be in the prime of their virility. A cougar may be married or unmarried, and some even go after their daughters' boyfriends. Although the term 'cougar' comes from the big-game predatory cat of the same name, the cougar connection also may allude to the wearing of animal print clothing by older and more sexually aggressive women. An early example of the cougar phenomenom was seen in the groundbreaking film The Graduate, in which middle-aged Mrs. Robinson (Ann Bancroft) seduces fresh-out-of-college Benjamin Braddock (Dustin Hoffman). Real-life cougar relationships include Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher (15 years), Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins (12 years), and Barbara Hershey and Naveen Andrews (21 years). |

So, I think that "cougar" applies to women who date only younger men whose only attraction (to them) is that they are younger? I guess that would be ego.
