No idea what you're talking about. What is the red hat society, and why
do you have such contempt for them?-


Cougar women are different from the Red Hats:
"And she has little to do with that other vision of stress-free aging,
the pert, grandmotherly "Red Hat Society," which promises wholesome,
sexless, depoliticized fun for over-50 women. The group's website
declares, hopefully, that wearing the right-colored hat "adds an
element of fun to aging."

The cougar is interested in a different kind of fun - the sort that
must appeal to a boomer bubble that is moving steadily toward
retirement age. Census data predicts a 72 percent rise in adults 50
and older between 2000 and 2020 - and not all of those women want to
"greet middle age with verve, humor and elan," as the Red Hat site
declares."
