Cougars are on the prowl

Older woman seduces younger man. Sound familiar? It’s a scene from the new classic “Wedding Crashers.”
Actress Demi Moore is 15 years older than her husband, actor Ashton Kutcher. But high-profile Hollywood couples like Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins (12 years her junior) — who met and began dating while filming an on-screen romance in the 1988 movie “Bull Durham” — have proven that life can indeed imitate art when it comes to matters of the heart. Theirs, however, is a real-life love story of an older woman and younger man — something that is not so uncommon nowadays. A 2003 study by AARP revealed that 34 percent of all women over 40 in the survey were dating younger men, and 35 percent preferred it to dating older men.
NBC aired a reality dating show this summer — “Age of Love” — that pitted women in their 20s against women in their 40s in a battle for the heart of tennis star Mark Philippoussis. Meanwhile, online dating sites like GoCougar.com urge older women who seek younger men to “get what you want.”
Why are these women having to go online!??! My local P.F. Chang’s is referred to by me and my single buddies as the “Cougar’s Den”. I tend to date older women (3 of the last 4 were from 1 to 6 years older then me), so I definitely buy off on the idea. A website seems like a little much, but hey a niche is a niche. Look out boys… you might get mauled
