Dates of earliest usage edit
Need dates of earliest usage, with examples, of this definition: "(Canadian and US slang) A woman of middle age who actively seeks the casual companionship of younger (typically under 30 years old) males." 24.29.228.33 03:55, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
Etymology edit
Hi,
What's the etymology for the acception of "female…": is it the same that for the animal? The word doesn't seem to exist in 1765-1775 as the reference [1] says it. — Automatik (talk) 15:52, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
40 edit
Is "over the age of 40" part of the actual meaning (i.e. what people are referring to) or an arbitrary age approximating the meaning?--Simplificationalizer (talk) 21:50, 2 April 2017 (UTC)
