A woman typically over 40, who enjoys the company of the younger male. It isn't all about sex, but rather more about honesty, openness and expression. Its about getting out and enjoying life and activity. Who wants a guy who's sole peak of happiness is a remote and someone to wait on him? Younger males have more energy,confidence and fewer hangups. They are also much more likely to be willing to admit that they don't know it all and they like a little adventure in their lives, therefore there are a few that are much more desirable sexually...
Nuff said!..lol

A woman typically over the age of 40 who seeks the company of a young buck...under the age of 25. She usually looks like a bleach blonde hag with all the trimmings of a dried up bird (fake claws, tough skin etc.)

An insult to a female that is at least 10 years older than you; an older attractive female that takes care of herself, eats right, exercises and is financially capable of having a great life without your sorry ass. As a general rule, guys don't want anything more from a cougar than to have sex with her. Pretty equal to a MILF.
That chick is a cougar. I would love to hit that!

The real definition of cougar comes from the american muscle car also known as the ´67 Ford Cougar, one of the best known cars to be lended or bought for being such a popular classic even after being used for a great ammount of mileage, that is why it can also be exemplified by "riding an old classic" just as a great looking 40 year old woman, which may have been also a classic or a beauty back in the day, being used once again, even with the mileage and a couple of bumps and scratches is a hell of a smooth ride!!!

In plain English: Any prime and mature woman seeking or prowling for younger men.

The term Cougar was coined to any woman seeking a youger man. Like the animal of the same name, they constantly hunt for fresh meat they can sink their teeth into. Cougars tend to seek energetic guys that are mostly vulnerable.

Many guys would have wished that their cougar counterparts would have baby sat them so they could have lost their virginities at a way younger age, without the fear of mommy or daddy knowing it.

One prime example of a cougar is Mary-Kaye Letourneau.

An older woman, usually with abnormally large breasts and a very small waist looking to get some action from a defenseless young male. Cougars usually range from the ages of 35-55 and can be vicious creatures out to end puppy love relationships. Cougars dwell in small, dark, high class bars in downtown settings where they can quickly sneak up on their prey, rendering them defenseless. The night usually ends in waking up next to the cougar after a night of sexual escapades to her child getting ready for school. Beware of cougars, beware.

DCS 2: Dude, I was attacked by a cougar last night.

DCS 1: Fuck.

A divorced woman who is going through menopause. She was the town slut in youth, had an abortion before she was married, and uses sex to advance in a career instead of hard, honest work. She enjoys going after men that are the age her aborted child would have been if it was still alive. She uses girlfriends that are more attractive then herself as lures for younger men, because they would not touch her with a ten foot pole. She cares little to nothing about the psychological affects of her actions will have on her sons.

She is constantly making and loosing friends who drop out of sight when they figure out the type of person she is. Her male friends rarely tell her the truth and are losers in business.

Former girlfriend:
No, I don't hang out with that cougar anymore, especially after her son, who is young enough to be my child, made a pass at me.

Yes, she laughed at the information for hours in private and made up a story about her son allegedly enlisting in the army, thinking that made up for her bad parenting and his actions.
