Cougar (slang)
Cougar is a slang term for a woman who seeks romantic or sexual relationships with significantly younger men. Terminology and age The origin of the word ''cougar'' as a slang term is debated, but it is thought to have originated in Western Canada and first appeared in print on the Canadian dating website Cougardate.com. It has also been stated to have "originated in Vancouver, British Columbia, as a put-down for older women who would go to bars and go home with whoever was left at the end of the night". Though, like many formerly derogatory terms, there has been an increasing effort to "reclaim" the term in recent years. The term has been variously applied to middle-aged women who pursue sexual relations with men more than ten years younger than they are. Academia A 2010 British psychological study published in ''Evolution and Human Behavior'' asserted that men and women, in general, continue to follow traditional gender roles when searching for mates, and thus concluded that t ...

Kitten Heel
A kitten heel is a short stiletto heel, with a slight curve setting the heel in from the back edge of the shoe. The style was popularized by Audrey Hepburn, and recent followers of the fashion include Theresa May, Michelle Obama, and Hillary Clinton. Shoes with kitten heels may be worn at work in an office setting by people who wish to wear feminine attire that is still practical. For parties, kitten heels are an alternative for those who find high heels uncomfortable.

They are on the shorter end of stiletto shoes, which can have heels as tall as 12.5 centimeters (5 in).

They were sometimes referred to as "trainer heels" in the US, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
