If they have tattoos they're legal. This is a much easier formula to remember.

I try not to think about how old (or, um, not) Brendon Urie is. And I really try not to think about how old I am.
You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I have not led the sort of life that leaves me with the luxury of saying "Well, he's funny and interesting and sexy and I love his company--but he's too young/old for me."
Yes. This.
Leave me alone, Marco Andretti! Can't you see I'm just no good for you?!?!?!
Yeah. Not gonna happen.

Back when I was younger (and thinner), I drew far more attention than I wanted from the twice-my-age-and-lacking-appropriate-boundaries crowd. Who did not take being turned down gracefully. Gaining weight and graying a bit may not do me any favors when I'm the one on the prowl, but it has paid serious dividends in not being perved on.

I personally think you are not a cougar unless you have had a face lift and are wearing a leopard-print camisole to show off your new breasts.
Everybody else who finds younger men attractive is called "able to see."

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I concur with Nutty in this matter. Also, a cougar's skin is often tanned to the breaking point.

A 23-year-old kid at work told another one of the girls he likes to date cougars. I kind of flinch whenever he talks to me, since he's sort of weird and weirdly flirty.
Cougar = Mrs. Robinson for me.

Finding someone attractive and dating them are two different things.

I'd pretty much date any available person I'm attracted to.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Right now I have that luxury. I don't have any romantic plans I could mess up by dating the "wrong" attractive person, so why not?
eta: But then I guess you have to look at what "attractive" means to you--for some it could stop at sexy, for others it goes as far as wanting to make them soup.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Unfortunately the only available attractive people I meet are students, and while I am not their teacher, that still seems wrong unless they were closer to my age and more importantly, not in my department. I would certainly date a grad student.
