Cougar Life ad
I actually laughed
at this ad when I saw it on TV. I love that we have all these dating
services everywhere, like Zoosk and Christian Mingle. I also got a
kick out of the fact they got away with putting a Milf Pornstar in
their TV spot. Hey, at least it is better than those lame Christian Mingle or Zoosk ads.
Since when did older
start using the term Cougar to describe themselves? Cougar used to
be a sort of derogatory term for an older lady pouncing on a younger
man. So, at some point the Milf Federation embraced the term.
And, I am all for
older women getting their freak on. I'd loved to have an older woman
paying for my dinner or buying my movie ticket. I just thought this
ad was a bit strange.
From
Merriam-Webster, ((:
1 a
large powerful tawny-brown cat (Felis
concolor)
formerly widespread in the Americas but now reduced in number or
extinct in many areas —called also catamount,
mountain lion, panther, puma
2 slang : a
middle-aged woman seeking a romantic relationship with a younger
man))
Maybe I am missing
something with the relation between term one and two. Does a older
woman turn into a mountain cat that eats livestock? Are we, the men,
livestock? Do older women want to be connected to an animal that
reigns down death?
Wait, I am not seeing the connection here.
