Dingo: an older gay man who prefers to date younger men. (on the model of "cougar")
I'm trying to figure out if that's more or less unflattering than "chickenhawk", what with the whole "dingoes ate my baby" thing.

SHRIFT! TOO EARLY IN THE MORNING!
I just choked on precious precious coffee.
THAT'S what chickenhawk means!
Also, the dingo thing made me snort my coffee.
Also, too, I really don't want to work. But I need to buckle down, because I have no boss....
I think of "chickenhawk" as kind of sleazy older man interested in fellows that are slightly too young. A "daddy" is an attractive older man who may or may not be interested in younger men. Younger men would more likely be physically attracted to a daddy than to a chickenhawk.
I hadn't heard "dingo" in that context before. I'll only note that there's a big difference between a good-looking 40-year-old and a 40-year-old who tries (and fails miserably) to look and act like he's 20. As well as a 40-year-old whose a 20-year-old boyfriend thinks he has the sexiest eyes and one whose 20-year-old boyfriend likes receiving presents from him.
So what's a "silver fox"?
I'm actually kind of afraid of what shrift might answer.
Cougar isn't an especially attractive term
Really? I think most of the big cats are attractive, what with the whole ultimate land predator thing they're working.
So what's a "silver fox"?
I always thought it was an attractive older person (not sure if it's gender neutral or not, but that's how I've interpreted it).
So what's a "silver fox"?
Just an attractive older man, right? Regardless of orientation? ("Silver" being his hair color.)
CHARLIE RICH!

I've always gotten a really negative vibe from it, though I don't know that I could pinpoint why.
