Is Wisdom the Ultimate Attraction Factor?

The cougar dating trend is definitely on the increase with women feeling more comfortable with being labeled a cougar than they would have done only a few years ago. In fact, being called a cougar is something women are now starting to enjoy and feel flattered by because men are quite open about the fact that they find an older woman so attractive, partly because she is probably far less attainable than a woman of their own age.

So what exactly is it about these older women that cause younger men to fall at their feet? Is it just down to the way they look? After all, celebrities such as Kylie Minogue and Demi Moore certainly don’t have anything to worry about in the aesthetics department. However, many men claim that they find cougars to be mysteriously attractive in a way that isn’t always down to appearance, but more so related to the cougar’s wisdom and independence. Cougars know what they want, they are interesting to be around, they know how they want to be treated by a man and probably won’t put up with the nonsense or games that can often come with dating.

Is this therefore a situation whereby the sense of knowledge and experience is more attractive to men than simply looking good? Some men could have the pick of the bunch when it comes to younger ladies but they still prefer to date an older woman because she is wise, intriguing and will likely keep them on their toes!
