CHICAGO -- Tracy Tedesco is smart -- she spent 20 years as a corporate recruiter.

She's funny -- most professional comedians are, or at least should be.

She's hot -- and she knows it.

At 41, Chicago comedian Tracy Tedesco is beating back guys in their 20s like she was giving away Xboxes.

Tedesco is the definition of an "urban cougar."

The label used to be an unflattering characterization of middle-aged, boy-hungry single women. But as more women shed the traditional taboos about age and dating, the name has been taken on as a badge of empowerment by sexy, older professional women who prefer the physical and spiritual qualities of younger men.

No, they prefer the disposibility of younger men and the ability to have that back door when it becomes awkward more often than not. Plus, that younger man isn't going to challenge her in any meaningful way emotionally.

The only exception to this is when she finds that the men her age find that she has too much mileage on her and look for younger models.

Full admission: I did not bother to read the article.
Full observation: Ladies, young men make easy prey.

Usually they find out that the young men are in fact, gay.

Pretty much my first reaction as well. I mean, she's no Helen Thomas, to be sure...but hot?

I like that she has a link to "Join the Bitter SKank Nation" which is her fanclub.

I don't ever remember any "urban cougars" being around in *my* 20's.

Do you think that the American Pie films had something to do with this?

I just don't have much to say to people who are more than 7 years younger than I am. I really like people my own age, when it comes to relationships. Young hotties don't even register on my radar. They kind of all look alike.

Older women can be very attractive in addition to being experienced. I'm thinking of Mrs. Robinson in The Graduate. -:)

One way is with a voluptuous figure. The figure in question being net worth.

Ask Teresa.

What a wretched, ugly scene it must be when she gets coldly rejected sooner or later.
