This is why I am bad at learning languages.

I am much more interested in finding out if there is a Japanese translation for the slang term "cougar" than I am in grammar. Or you know, useful words.
Unfortunately, I only found translations for older man with younger woman ( 夕暮れ族、ゆうぐれぞく、yuugurezoku), and the young lover of an older woman (若い燕、わかいつばめ, wakaitsubame), and that is lame. They acknowledge that it happens, but I can't find the right word. I guess I'll have to ask a J-person the next time I can tactfully insert it in a conversation. Ha. Ha. Ha.
(This all came about because G is playing some confusing game called Lux-Pain, which might have the worst text-dialogue inconsistencies EVER, and there was totally a cougar talking to the main character. Totally.)
