DATING younger men has always been a bit of a taboo topic, but as far as Tara Gen is concerned it’s more common than people realise.
Despite being in her fifties, the self-confessed cougar has previously dated men younger than her sons, who are 30 and 24.
Now, in the wake of the new erotic thriller Babygirl, which stars Nicole Kidman as a high-powered businesswoman who begins an affair with a 20-something intern, played by Harris Dickson, Tara has hinted that more women lust after younger men than most people realise.
Posting on TikTok, Tara, who is an ex-Mormon, shared a clip of her slowly dancing to George Michael’s Father Figure, much like Harris Dickinson’s character in the film’s many raunchy scenes.
“Why y’all acting like this is a new phenomenon?” she wrote over the viral video, suggesting more women want a younger man to boss them around in the bedroom than might be willing to admit it.
“Is this surprising? I think not,” she added.
Tara hasn’t always been so outspoken about her relationships with younger men, and previously confessed she likes to keep flings “on the down low”.
She’s even gone so far as to make sure she’s not friends with the parents of her romantic partners because of the notable age gap.
But it’s not a husband she’s after- she simply wants to have fun with her young lovers.
Her admission came after someone commented on a previous video and wrote: “For the young guys, just hit and run. These women are damaged goods.”
But the gran had no time for haters and explained that she’s not looking for love.
In fact, it’s the men who keep chasing her.
“Strangely enough, I can’t get rid of them once I’ve dated them they won’t go away,” she said.
Tara explained she can tell if she’s going to hit it off with someone instantly, but they often get the wrong impression and she ends up having to break it off with them.
She confessed she doesn’t want to waste her time with someone she’s not compatible with, unlike the younger men she dates.
She previously told The US Sun she’s making up for lost time, since she was busying raising kids when her peers were dating and having fun.
“I didn’t get to go through the fun 20s,” she said.
“People think cougars run through young men and I don’t. It takes a while to find one that is compatible with me.”
While bored and stuck in the house during the onset of the pandemic, like many others, she dabbled with making TikToks.
“It kinda put me in the MILF category,” she said.
“I noticed people who followed were younger and were in the 20 to 30 age range and was kinda shocked by that.”
This led her to be one of the prime faces of “CougarTok” and gave her the ability to monetize her good looks and assets.
“I was shocked by the crazy amount of money people can make online,” she said.
