Findings in a new survey by social networking site Badoo show that 52% of British women want to date a younger man. And the hotspot in is in fact Gloucestershire which has been dubbed as the ‘cougar capital’.
The study of 2,000 women found that in Gloucestershire, more women date youthful men as opposed to anywhere else in the country and that more than two thirds of women in the city confessed to being ‘cougars’.
The poll also revealed that despite half of female Britons wanting to date a man who was their junior, 70% admitted to considering an adolescent relationship. A minor 12% of women surveyed said they actively ‘hunted’ out younger men for UK dating.
Aberdeen and Glasgow were the second and third largest ‘cougar’ populations, shortly followed by Southampton, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Oxford, Swansea and Leicester.
According to the survey, reasons stated for the appeal in dating a younger man included the obvious physical side as well as friendship, fun and boost in self-confidence. Over a third of women said they felt more assertive in making the first move online rather than face-to-face.
And celebrities are jumping on board the band wagon too with the recent well-publicised romance between TV presenter Caroline Flack, who is 32, and One Direction band member Harry Styles, who is 17 years-old.
