Gross. Why Would They Make A Show About This?

The whole idea of older women preying on a young twenty something is kinda sick. I'm not saying age difference is an issue if two people genuinely love each other but that usually happens by accident. I don't think any older women should be going out looking specifically for younger men. its disturbing. They just like the guys for their looks and bodies. I feel the same way about old men with young women. the whole thing is just really disgusting to me.

Thank you Eliza. I agree with you 100%. I'm a 48 year old man, but let's face it, women in their early 20s who go out with guys my age are usually gold diggers. As for these meatheads chasing after that 40 year old woman, I have no idea why they're doing it unless they're just completely unsuccessful with women their own age.

you told us. haha. your childish attempt to insult someone is hugely pathetic. The fact that you got so offended tells me your probably an old lonely cougar yourself or some sad computer nerd who is too much of a loser to find a real girlfriend so you have to go after people who were your age when you were born.

DonNova needs to shut the hell up. The OP was just stating her opinion and I agree with her. There is no need to insult anyone. I don't get why a guy would want to be with a woman who's old enough to be his mother anyways. That lady that is the cougar on the show stated she's been married 2 times and has 4 kids. That's crazy and that's a lot of baggage to handle. Some of the guys on that show are too young to get involved with something like that. Some of these older people need to stick within their own age group not go after someone who can pass as your child. I have never considered going out with much older men. I'm in my twenties and this guy wanted to date me (he works at my job) and he's in his fifties. He was very unnattractive and looked like he could be my granddad. I don't even talk to him anymore now. I agree with the OP. It could be quite disgusting and unflattering. That's just my opinion.

I'd just like to point out that all the haters happen to be WOMEN in this thread. Jealous much?

I'm a woman and I am definitely not "hating" on this woman, but then again I'm a 20-something and this show actually makes getting older a lot less scary! If I was 40 and had gained weight and aged terribly, I can see how I would be jealous though. As for the age difference, I do agree with the OP somewhat. It is disturbing when older men and women ONLY date people way younger. It doesn't seem natural. Over the years my taste in men has matured with me as I aged. I no longer find 20 and 21 year-olds sexy; they look like little boys to me now. And I'm sorry, 30-somethings dating 18 year-olds is disgusting! It makes it seem like the only thing stopping them was the law. It's sick.

LMAO just because women find it gross doesn't mean they are jealous. Do you know how childish that sounds. My main problem with it is women who like college aged athletic guys like the cougar on this show. They probably have a son that age that looks like that. How creepy is it that your son is basically the type of man your attracted to. What happens when the guys get older, will they just move on to younger meat? Will those guys still be interested in her when she reaches 60? Call me old fashioned but I just feel people should be with people their own age.

DonNova....I see you happen to be very familiar with mental retardation, but then I guess that's to be expected considering your posts are those of a person with an extremely low IQ.

[–] DonNova 15 years ago

Haha, yes I have an EXTREMELY low IQ, and yet all my points are valid. So what does that say about YOU?

Let's face it, in a previous post you said you don't understand why men at this age would chase after an older woman. You wanna know why you don't know? Because you're fat and nasty and don't have younger men chasing after you. If you were hot, then you would know why. Clearly you aren't.
