See, I always thought MILF was just something teenage boys came up with when faced with a friend's mom who was hot. Sort of a "Stacy's Mom" thing.
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Me, too!
(The hilarity when my brother married a woman named Stacy was undercut by his unblinking threats of maiming should anyone play that song at the reception.)
(Nope, nobody -- including me -- was dumb enough to even try to play it. Although Stacy's mom [that is, my brother's MiL] is attractive.)

Coming in late ... but cougar always struck me as moderately favorable - kind of, she's going after younger men and she gets them.
Silver fox is pretty much gender-neutral, but strikes me as mostly favorable - i.e., the hair's white, but they're attractive.
And years ago, chickenhawk was used of men who preyed on underage boys. Usage may have changed.

Me three. In fact, i feel like I started hearing it around the Stacy's mom/American Pie time.

I think it started out that way, but I have heard younger men (the rugby boys, not sure if that's a representative sample), notice an attractive older woman across the bar and say "whoa, check out the MILF."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
the Stacy's mom/American Pie time.
ISn't there a big gap between those two? I thought Stacy's Mom was relatively recent.

American Pie the movie (I'm assuming), not the song.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
American Pie came out around 1999, Stacy's Mom around 2003 or 2004.

"Stacy's Mom" always made me double-take, too, because I had a friend named Stacy in PA who was definitely a MILF herself, or would be as soon as her kids' friends were old enough to realize it.

I wouldn't call that a big gap in terms of cultural trends.
