World's First Puma Party, for Cougars-in-Training

SAN RAFAEL, CA, January 26, 2011 (Press-News.org) The first-ever Puma Party, for single women under 40 who prefer younger men, takes place on Friday, February 18, 2011, 8pm-Midnight, at Neptune's Restaurant at Pier 39, San Francisco CA 94133. Adult men and women of all ages are welcome.

One Puma in attendance will be crowned Miss Bay Area Puma. She will win a free room at Hedonism II Resort & Spa at Negril Beach, Jamaica during International Cougar Week, March 27 - April 2, 2011. To be eligible she must be legally single, under age 40, available to the news media for interviews, and prefer younger men.

"The worldwide cougar craze is NOT limited to middle-aged women," says Author Rich Gosse, Executive Producer of http://www.cougarevents.com. "Many women under age 40 (AKA Pumas or Cougars-in-Training) also prefer younger men. While middle-aged women are forced to date younger men out of DEMOGRAPHIC NECESSITY (the shortage of men their age who are willing to date middle-aged women), Pumas date younger men out of CHOICE, despite the fact that there are an unlimited number of older, more prosperous men who compete for their favors.

"The Puma Dating Phenomenon is celebrity-driven," says Mr. Gosse:
•Selena Gomez, 18, and Justin Bieber, 16
•Ashley Greene, 23, and Joe Jonas, 21
•Nicki Minaj, 26, and Drake, 24
•Carey Mulligan, 25, and Shia LeBeouf, 24
•Rihanna, 22, and Chris Brown 21 (no longer together)
•Lauren Conrad, 24, and Jason Wahler, 23
•Kelly Osbourne, 26, and Luke Worral, 21 (no longer together)
•Taylor Swift, 21, and Taylor Lautner, 18 (no longer together)
•Jessica Szohr, 25, and Ed Westwick, 23
