And I can't say I totally dig the whole 'women who want sex after 30 are on the prowl catty fiends" or "they has sex=shockah!"

Uh, there's a difference between 'women who want sex after 30' and 'women who dress provocatively, loudly mention things about not being interested in a relationship after their divorce years ago, and make unflinching, scary eye contact with any male in the 20s at the bar'. Some women are less obvious, but sometimes stereotypes come true, and scare the living hell out of me.

'in their 20s' I meant

And how is that not true? There are women who ARE on the prowl catty fiends', but they are a small subset of women over 30 wanting sex!
― mh, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 17:36 (sixteen years ago) link
yeah, old bitches should not be allowed to make eye contact!

Right, or drink a single martini and then try to grab the groin of men they happen to be sitting near after doing all the things I mentioned above.
I think that it's cool if someone chooses to live out this stereotype, but are you ladies seriously trying to claim that it's normal behavior and not deserving some parody?

no they scratch your back with their claws since they haven't had sex since the divorce
― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 17:40 (sixteen years ago) link
mh i think what you are describing is not 'post-30s woman on prowl' but 'mental illness'

that is kind of the point, that it is completely atypical behavior and hence so interesting
― mh, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 17:46 (sixteen years ago) link
this isn't, like, oppression of older women, more a mild ribbing by folks acknowledging they also mostly like the attention

GUYS seriously, dudes have lusted after widows and divorcees since time immemorial, but most of the time it's been because men have felt free to treat them as whores and ruined women.

also elmo otm.
No, that happened to my friend who talked to a lady in that circumstance. I've seen the same thing happen a few times, although in this case:
1. I sit down at bar. 2. Woman (LATER OUTED AS COUGAR) sits down a few seats down and repeatedly tries to make this weird flirty eye contact. I stare at beer. I observe her flirting agressively with targets in her "demo" 3. I leave bar, and later find out she pulled that move on a friend who did sit next to her and talk, although she was more interested in mentioning that she had a place, giving her contact info, etc. (groping)
And yeah, I'm not really up on random creepy women grabbing my junk! I might be missing out on a world of awesome.

elmo otm, I have no idea if it's empowering in some way for women to flip that situation around and act like being divorced or older gives them motivation to live by a cougar set of rules, but more power to them if so.

i'd rather be a giraffe than a cougar
― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 17:55 (sixteen years ago) link
yes well it seems like this individual was irritating & problematic in ways that are a bit apart from the "cougar" issue we are carefully and respectfully discussing
xp man what
― gff, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 17:55 (sixteen years ago) link
mh is rubbing the wrong way because instead of cougar sounding like an lol joek its sounding like an actual definitive designation
― deej, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 17:56 (sixteen years ago) link
someone clearly needs to record a song called "cougar" immediately

giraffe sounds like slang for a dude who is aggressively into cunnilingus

no I think it's pretty awesome as a joke and I think it should be joked about freely without people thinking we're mocking all hot older ladies
― mh, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 17:57 (sixteen years ago) link
guys who think older women are hot tend to announce their proclivity with the same kind of weird pride as guys who are all "look, i'm not racist, i'm totally into black chicks!"
