You've heard the term "cougar" before right? If not, let's go to school!

To find the true definition of cougar, we must first visit UrbanDictionary.com. I will warn you, be careful with what you look up at this site.

Anyway, Urban Dictionary defines a cougar as:

An older woman who frequents clubs in order to score with a much younger man. Cougars are gaining in popularity as young men find not only a sexual high, but many times a chick with her sh** together.

Okay, so now we know what a cougar is. A more PC way of putting it would be a woman who is in to younger men.

According to the Daily Mail, such women do much better in their careers. Boom! Double bonus ladies! You get a younger man, and more money.

The survey that was put together found that 50% of cougars are in upper management jobs, that is compared to one third of all women in the survey.

Here's the theory, older women who date younger men have more self-confidence. That self-confidence is either built in or developed. This in turn makes it easier to be more assertive, and makes it less challenging to say what needs to be said without much thought, that translates to a successful career.

So, if you were looking for a reason to date a bit younger, there you go!
