Cougars, Cubs, and Manthers, Oh my...

Hello Everyone,

Thanks to some recent inspiration I have compiled an interesting collection of what I like to call, "relationship terms" for you...

• Chickenhawk - an older gay man who sexually pursues younger males.

• Cougar - The term is commonly applied to women who are forty or older and pursue younger men. Hunting their prey, enjoying the "prowl".

• Cradle robber or cradle snatcher - a person involved with a much younger individual.

• Cub/Tadpole - a younger male who is going out with an older partner, often paired with the term Cougar. The term is also often used in the gay community along with the term Bear^.

• Gold digger - someone who develops a relationship with a much older partner or someone whom they do not find attractive physically, intellectually or congenially for primarily financial reasons, especially to inherit the partner's wealth upon death (which is expected to come soon), or upon divorce.

• Jailbait - a sexually attractive young person who is below the legal age of consent.

• Lolita - a sexually precocious girl who is the object of desire of a significantly older man. The term's origin is the name of the title character in Vladimir Nabokov's novel Lolita, whom the book's narrator, Humbert Humbert, calls a nymphet.

• Manther - A male 40 years of age or older, who pursues younger women, typically younger than half his age.

• May–December romance - a relationship in which the age difference between the two adults is wide enough to risk social disapproval.

• MILF (an acronym of "Mother [or 'Mom'] I'd Like/Love to Fuck") - a sexually desirable mother, though not necessarily an older woman. The term is used frequently as a descriptor of pornography featuring older women, assumed to be mothers.

• Puma - a woman in her thirties who dates a younger man (i.e., 20-somethings), often considered a "cougar in training". It also means a cougar whose age disparity is less than eight years.

• Sugar daddy/mommy - a rich, usually older person who offers money or gifts to a less rich, usually younger person in return for companionship or sexual favors. This differs from prostitution in that the older person is usually the sole financial provider to the younger person.

• Boy Toy - a much younger boyfriend or husband of an older woman.

• Troll - an older gay/bi man, often a less-attractive one, who cruises younger men for sex.

• Trout - An older man who dates a younger woman.

Some of these I have heard, but most were pretty new to me... what are some interesting terms you have heard?
