Cougar relationships may be hot in Hollywood with Courteney Cox and ABC's "Cougar Town" but in the real world, very few women are married to men who are significantly younger. An estimated 1% of all marriages in 2008 were between a woman who was 10-14 years older than her husband; 2.6% 6 to 9 years older, according to Census figures. Matchmaking services such as Cougar Mingle have seen an increase in the past six months of women requesting younger men but she has not seen a change in age preference from her male clients.
Just goes to show that women get the short end of the stick no matter what age they are.
If you are in the market for a Cougar style relationship – we recommend Cougar Mingle
