In the past week or so, there was a marriage in what is growing into a celebrity fad. This celebrity fad is what I call, Celebrity Cougar marriages.
If you are unfamiliar with the term “cougar”, let’s explain. A cougar is a mature women who is either divorced, widowed or still single who prefer to date and/or marry younger men. The cougars who date, are looking for a fun, fling with an attractive younger male. Its mainly non-committal, and much of the control usually belongs to the woman who seeks younger men.
Cougar marriages are of course just a little different. These marriages are by older women looking to marry younger men for several different reasons. These women may be late bloomers and feel more comfortable with the company of a younger man, because they themselves feel that they are truly at the same maturity level as their male counterparts. Other reasons may be because these women have been in relationships where they may have been the less dominant of the two, for whatever reasons, and might be looking for more control in the relationships to a younger male. Still yet another reason, is that the older women might have been bored by older men, while she was more vitale and looking for more activity from their male counterpart. This may also be related to more of a physical relationship that many more mature women desire than what is with an older man.
The alluring trait that younger men see in dating an older woman is that they are more mature obviously, but also more focused what they want out of life. It also may have to do with a man who isn’t very comfortable with being the dominant personality in a relationship, although this probably would be never revealed by another man. There is also the fact that a man might feel more better of himself knowing that such type of women are interested in him. This has to do with the male ego most of the time. It is something that a lot of men discuss when they are amongst other men and it is seen as sort of a “badge of honor” somewhat. Yes that sounds corny, and again, most men probably won’t admit to that, but in the end, it’s the ego and maybe being seen with such an attractive, successful mature older woman and his arm. As sophmoric as that may sound, ego and the ability to catch an older woman is something that most men dream of.
