There are apparent questions and typical myths surrounding the older girl/youthful man dating phenomenon. Here is a partial record:

Q: Isn’t this nearly intercourse? And do not Cougars simply need a younger man for enjoyable and video games?

No! Many individuals consider Stiffler’s mother in American Pie or Mrs. Robinson from The Graduate and assume that Cougars are growing old, determined ladies prepared to leap on any youthful man with a pulse. There is a lot extra to this dating dynamic than individuals understand. It is not only about intercourse, and sure I do know many May/December couples who’re very fortunately married. Cougar ladies are literally way more selective about their youthful man and which means that the youthful males should have extra to convey to the celebration than only a raging libido. The youthful males are driving this development. There are extra youthful males in search of older ladies than there are older ladies in search of youthful males. So, it is women’ selection.

Q: Is Cougar dating right here to remain?

Yes. It has all the time existed and may be very in style in Europe. In the United States, 30% of older ladies date youthful males. The BBC say that 25% of older ladies are married to youthful males. From a physiological perspective, it is sensible that an older girl would like a youthful male. From a psychological imprinting perspective, I’ve interviewed 1000’s of males who’ve particular defining moments of their lives once they knew they have been interested in older ladies and most popular them over ladies their very own age.

Q: Why do not these youthful males go after ladies their very own age?

The youthful males inform me that girls their age are boring, manipulative, sport taking part in, self centered, and shallow. They are interested in the depth, maturity and spirit of the older girl.

Q: What occurs when the males attain age 35 and their Cougar is 50 or 60 or older? Don’t the youthful males depart?

20 years of psychological analysis particular to psychosexual imprinting focuses on how youthful males are imprinted to the older girl. An imprint is a really highly effective psychological phenomenon that could be a lifetime bond. Their child sitter, college instructor, mother’s finest buddy, actresses and different older ladies brought about an imprint formation that immediately bonded them to an attraction towards older ladies. Even as these males grow old themselves, they proceed to hunt out ladies older than themselves. For that purpose, males of their 40’s and older take into account themselves Cubs and refuse thus far ladies their age or youthful. This explains why a person in his late 30’s can marry a lady 20 years his senior and as soon as single once more, need to hunt out, date and marry one other older girl. Not all Cubs are males of their 20’s, and as I all the time say to my members: ‘There is a lid for each pot.’

Q: So, there’s extra to this Cougar dating development than what the common public is aware of?

The media and popular culture ‘consultants’ have jumped on a bandwagon they actually know little or no about this dynamic. They wish to narrowly outline this demographic of individuals and capitalize and sensationalize it for revenue, notoriety and to promote their “self published” books. The individuals I’ve interviewed who’ve a few years of residing this life-style object to this bias by non credentialed individuals who provide a superficial overview of their in any other case very intricate lives. I do my finest to set the report straight.
