The Older Woman Younger Man Relationship

August 9th, 2008 by GiGi

Like it or not, we are still living in a male dominated society. Take a look at Aleta St. James, the lady who had two kids at the age of 57. A man at the same age fathering children wouldn’t even raise an eyebrow.

This same mind set can be applied when referring the older women dating a younger man. When a mature woman dates someone her age or older she is likely to be congratulated on her relationship. But if the guy is a younger man, it may be considered unacceptable and even scandalous.

It’s not unusual for the younger man dating an older women to brag about his relationship to his friends, but very often the relationship is kept hidden from his family. Many young men don’t appear to have the guts to tell their families. They believe that their family and in particular their parents are not ready for their older woman/younger man relationship.

Is it possible that society is bogged down by numbers and is completely overlooking the benefits of any relationship that gives the partners love and satisfaction? It is highly likely that the families of these May to December romances have a long way to come before the young men will feel confident enough to step up and declare their love and fascination with older women.

Who The Hell Wants A Kitten When You Can Find A Mature Cougar?
Is it any wonder that 34% of women over 40 are dating man who are younger than themselves? The kittens or younger women are busy trying to figure out what the hell they want out of life. Many still believe that they need a relationship to find happiness. They still believe in the dream wedding, the picket fence and living happily ever after, and they’re spending most of their time trying to find someone who’ll give it to them. They haven’t yet discovered that you can be happy even if you are single.

The cougar or mature women seem to have eclipsed this time of their lives. What’s more [tag]sexy than having the confidence to know that you can do everything a younger woman can and probably do it better.

Cougars have confidence and wisdom working for them. Somewhere through the years the cougar has discovered that happiness is not dependent on someone else. She could give a damn about the opinions of others as she has spent too many of her younger years toeing the line. She’s looking to explore life, love and sex and what better place to do it than with someone who’s got the vitality and youth and will appreciate her.

Find Yourself A Mature Woman!

A New Look For A New Relationship

June 15th, 2008 by GiGi

If you’re thinking about a new relationship, especially may to december romance with a younger man, it’s time you started to get out there and feel young. Unfortunately as we get older, our instinct for knowing what suits suits us all too often gets lost

cartoonass2.jpgYou know those expensive beautiful dresses that you bought 15 years ago, they may still fit (go girl!) and everyone knows that a expensive, classic outfit will last for years, however it’s time you bought some trendy upscale clothes that shows the “new you”. Behaving younger just won’t cut it.

Many of us tend to get stuck with the last look that we really understood and go on working it. We feel comfortable with the look, it hides our body flaws and though not at the height of fashion refuse to move out of the 80’s or 90’s.

Let’s face it, smocks, vest tops, neon colors and skinny jeans may be all the rage, but they probably should not be in your wardrobe. Your goal here is to give the world the impression that you’re a sophisticated woman. Dress like one.

Younger, trendy clothes doesn’t mean you’re looking for the same look as those hard bodied teens who insist on showing the world their navels. What is possibly more pitiful is middle-aged woman trying to remain young by wearing what the “kids” are wearing. What you don’t realize is that what they are really doing is pointing out, quite visibly, that you aren’t a kid any more. Trying to look 20 when you’re 45 will make you the butt of jokes, but there’s no reason that you can’t chop 10 years off your look with a fashion statement.

You also need to forget the idea that it’s okay to wear certain things when you’re a certain age. When I was 30 I didn’t have to read a fashion magazine to know what I wanted to wear: But most of us over 50 and over 40 as well, find this instinct fades as we age and takes with it that confidence that seems to be in the possession of younger women as they sashay into the room just knowing they’ve got it right.

Take those classic rags and donate them to Goodwill. You’re going to be amazed at just how young you’ll feel in a new outfit.

Lastly, if you really want to look younger, invest in a hairstyle overhaul. Modernizing that reliable haircut you’ve had for a while will take more years off you than a miniskirt. And you’ll keep your self-respect, too.

Ellen Degeneris To Marry GirlToy

May 16th, 2008 by GiGi

BoyToy or GirlToy -  I’m as confused as hell.ellenportia.jpg

On the heels of a ruling that struck down California’s laws against gay marriage, Ellen DeGeneres announced her plans to wed longtime girl-toy, Portia de Rossi. Ellen, 50, and her longtime love (since 2004 which can be “longtime” by Hollywood Standards), Portia who’s 35, made the announcement before Ellen’s cheering audience.

The California’s Supreme Court ruled that people have a fundamental “right to marry” the partner of their choosing – therefore the previous ban on gay marriage was ruled unconstitutional.

One key to their happiness, DeGeneres said last year, is that they learn from one another. “She’s taught me lessons about myself, and I feel like I’ve taught her,” said the TV host. “We’ve both changed and grown, and we just feel like, ‘Oh, okay, this is completion.’ ”

Seems to me Ellen had similar things to say about wierd Anne Heche at one time!

Love Had No Boundries For This Old Cougar

May 15th, 2008 by GiGi

englishcougar.jpgSome love stories just pull at the heart strings. This is the story of Britain’s oldest bride. She’s 94 and her boy toy is a measly 86.

It seems that Winston Barraclough met Bess Atkins in 2005 when Winston, a widower, was volunteering as a bus driver for the local hospital. His bus picked her up from her home and he instantly “took a shine” to Bess, a former civil servant, who had been a widow for 40 years. During that first fateful drive, he actually stopped to buy her a box of chocolates!

But it was only later, when she went searching for him, that romance blossomed. “When he dropped me off on that first meeting. I didn’t even know his name but I tracked him down to a shop in the centre I knew he visited,” Bess said.

“I was a bit nervous when I rang him to ask him around for a coffee - I thought he might think I was a fast woman.”

“But we had a great chemistry and I thought why not?”

Bess said Winston proposed to her in January of this year on New Year’s Day.

“Winston said he had something serious to say,” she said. “I thought it was some medical problem and feared the worst,”

Instead he popped the question - “Will you be my wife please. I would love to marry you.” Bess was shocked but I said “Yes, that would be lovely.”

Bess and Winston exchanged vows April 5 at St Nicholas Church in Hornsea, East Yorkshire, which happens to be the same church in which the new Mrs Barraclough first married almost 70 years ago, ten days before the outbreak of the Second World War.

Bess remarked that “Marrying in the same church was lovely and brought back “a lot of happy memories.”

The Rev. Phillip Lamb, who married them, said: “Love has no boundaries. It’s never too late for anyone and Winston and Bess are living proof of that.”

What did I learn from this lovely little tidbit?matthew-mcconaughey2.jpg

  • There’s hope for me yet. I need to start considering a boy toy that doesn’t necessary have the physique of Matthew McConaughey.
  • I haven’t had a box of chocolates bought for me for some time. The chocolates the children give me get classified under “obligations to the old lady”, and don’t qualify.
  • I need to quit hanging around the local coffee shops and Wal Mart and start prowling the bus stops.
  • I’d like to know what hospital hires an 83 year old coot to drive it’s buses?

Online Dating And Lying About Your Age

May 13th, 2008 by GiGi

4girls.jpgWe’re all tempted when we fill out those profiles for the online dating sites - why not crop a few years our age? It’s obvious from the profiles of the men online, that women aren’t the only ones who can “stretch the truth”.

Just what is a few years? Two years seems fair, five may be stretching it, but probably ten years is pushing your future dating possibilities.

When we lie about our age, we’re probably going to attract the wrong kind of people. Also if you’ll lie about this, how many other things on your profile are false? If you’re looking for a quick one-night stand, then what the hell, but if you’re looking for some form of meaningful relationship then you’ll need to start the process out on a truthful basis.

Moral? If you’ve lied about your age on your profile, you need to get it straightened out ASAP with your new love interest.

Why Some Women Like Younger Men

May 12th, 2008 by GiGi

Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher. Madonna and Guy Ritchie. Your old high school English teacher and… your best buddy?! Hey, it could happen. These days, if an older woman wants a baby, she can have one.

There will always be the Traditional Tina, scoping out an older fella who’s “on her maturity level” as she likes to think- and who’s willing to play provider. But what of the ever-growing population of footloose women with their crazy cradle-robbing ways? Is this another Maggie May, who, as Rod Stewart tells it, will “wreck your bed, and in the morning kick you in the head?” Or is she some lonely desperado, hoping to latch on to a kinder, gentler generation of men? Here are some insights as to why some women prefer to date younger guys. Read the rest of this entry »

The Pleasures Of Dating An Older Woman

March 12th, 2008 by GiGi

 

She is Cougar, Hear Her Roar!

Compliments of SexualForte.com

If you’ve been dating for any length of time, you’ve likely met a terrific woman who’s everything you want except for one thing-she’s older than you. Significantly older. She might have five years on you, or even fifteen years, but before you write her off because she wasn’t born in the same decade as you were, take some time to consider all the benefits of dating an older woman.

The most obvious benefit is her maturity. How many bad dates with a hot girl have you had to endure, spending hours listening to the differences between lip gloss and lipstick, just to get ho-hum some sex at the end of the night? Fortunately the older woman has more important things to think about than makeup, namely you.

Despite what you might think, the older woman is far from desperate and can definitely give you a more interesting evening than a twenty-something who just wants to talk about her own petty problems. And you won’t have to worry about the older woman embarrassing you at the office Christmas party with some wildly inappropriate comment to your boss-she knows how to react in any social situation and will make you look good too just by being in her company.

Issues Facing Older Women

February 14th, 2008 by GiGi

One of the issues facing older women seeking a mate is a lack of eligible men of their age. Male seniors are nearly twice as likely as female seniors to be married, with 75 percent of senior men living with their spouse, compared with just 41 percent of senior women. The reason: Women still tend to live longer than men, resulting in more widows than widowers in this country. The best way for single senior women and unattached senior men to meet is for both to get out and socialize.

What’s The Attraction Between Cougars And Young Men

February 12th, 2008 by GiGi

It has often been said that opposites attract, which is why men and women get together. Traditionally though it has been the older man with a younger woman, usually not more than a few years between them.

But why shouldn’t a young man have a relationship with an [/tag]older woman[/tag] or indeed a woman have a relationship with a younger man. In societies nowadays, barriers are being broken down everywhere so why are cougar relationships still seen as unusual?

An estimate says that about 1/3rd of women aged 40 or over have dated younger men. So what’s the attraction for these women?

  • Is it simply sexual, thinking that a younger man will have more stamina and satisfy them better?
  • Is it a power thing, do these women enjoy having influence or a ‘mothering’ aspect over their partner? Is it simply female ‘trophy hunting’, are these younger men used as ‘trophy partners’.
  • Are cougars are trying to prove to themselves that they are still attractive and able to pull young virile men,
  • Do these older womenhave problems accepting their real age, and like their male counterparts are attempting to bring back their youth?
  • Do these women enjoy a loving successful relationship with a man who just happens to be their junior?

But what’s the attraction for the man?

  • Does he see the woman as a ‘mother figure’?
  • Does he see her as an older experienced woman; someone who will ‘teach’ him.
  • Again, is it a ‘power thing’? does the guy see the wealthy, older woman as being powerful and feel that he will gain some power by being associated with her?
  • Or could it simply be that the man is enjoying a loving relationship with a woman who just happens to be older?
