I dislike the term cougar because it implies there's something predatory about an older woman with a younger man, while men go after women a third their age without having a similar label.
How's it sit? Pretty cunning, don'tchya think?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
while men go after women a third their age without having a similar label.
Cradle-robber is gender-neutral, isn't it?
And definitely predatory.
But perhaps not applied as often as it could be. I certainly do.

Except that since Fast Eddie never posted here, that makes no sense.
I'm assuming that Fast Eddie is the same meatspace person as Gus and Janitor and Gus' imaginary Korean girlfriend (Kimi?). Guy Straley/Gus Raley.

I find this all ENDLESSLY fascinating because of the extreme wackiness, but please stop mentioning us. No really, stop.
Also? how bored to you have to be, or how disappointed in who you are as a person to make up multiple different characters for the purpose of nothing. no scam, no con, no murderous plot.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Do you think GusEddie misses us?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
for the purpose of nothing. no scam, no con, no murderous plot.
This is the thing that keeps eating at me, the purposelessness. As if, somehow, getting lied to for some particular intent would be better. Which, honestly, I don't think it would be. More understandable, though. I'm trying to chalk it up to goose-juggling.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Well, obviously he misses you, Miss The Nicest.
I'm still pissed about that crappy New Year's Eve. He OWES me an angst-free champagne holiday.
