Cougars vs Pedophiles?

I think its gross either way. early 20's are still too young. think of how different you were between the age of say, 20 and 30.... she wont even be the same person ten years from now. Her mind is still growing and changing, especially in college! Dont kid yourself, when she is done with school she will either have another man on the side who is a little closer to her age or just plain leave. Her not having to work for her education while you do work? how is that not gold digging? They had a whole thing on the exact same circumstance on dateline. You are being used for a while.

A woman over 18 who wants people under 16= A pedophile

A man over 18 who wants people under 16= A pedophile

A woman over 40 who wants 20 year olds= A cougar

A man over 40 who wants 20 year olds=sugar daddy (or what ever they call them)

what exactly is your argument here because older men dating younger women has been going on since the beginning of time and although it may turn some heads, its been far more accepted than older women dating young guys. This is probably why the cougar name came about and the glamorization of it because things should be equal, its merely to get it to be as accepted as its been the other way around.

48 with a 21 yr old wife?

I think the age difference is going to become a problem at some point.

21 year olds have not had time to mature into the person they will become

But to answer your question, it is a savage hypocricy.

A pedophile is someone that messes with children that have yet to hit puberty. If you've started or ended puberty, you aren't a child.

---- @Angry Indian: You perverted animal. I would imagine any (smart) man regardless of how old they are, would know better than to mess with someone under the age of consent (which is 16-18 depending on your area give or take). I prefer women no more than a year or two younger than I am, so don't make stupid assumptions like that about me.

------ @Angry Indian: When and where did I say that was fair game? I was just explaining to this person what a pedophile is. A man that's 40 dating a woman that's in her 20s is not a pedophile. He just likes young (but mature) women.

Dani don't reply to him anymore, he knows what you mean, but if he doesn't it isn't worth explaining. Now to the question, Dani gave you the practical definition of a pedo, a cougar dates men that are younger than her not boys. A man that dates women younger than him is not a pedophile or even close to one, if he's dating girls that would be totally different.

Cougars = white women

Pedophiles = white men

I guess Dani thinks its ok for 12 year old to sleep with 40 year olds as long as they have hair. A 20 year age difference is gross but not illegal as long as they aren't a minor.
