Cougar lovers rejoice! The National Single Cougars Convention was held in Palo Alto, California last month.

The big gala began with cocktails and appetizers, served by Trader Vic’s, as well as presentations from various booth sponsors.

Francesca Gentille, an author, and Tahil Gesyuk, her love interest who is 14 years younger, addressed a room of almost 60 “cougars”. The topic? Relationships with younger men, of course.

After the presentation, the Cougar Ball took place with more than 100 “cubs” (younger men) who were there to mingle with the singles.

The highlight of the night was the crowning of the very first Miss Cougar USA. That prestigious honor went to Gloria Navarro of Redwood Shores. Next year, we might have to check this one out first-hand.
