The Cougar Convention will be held on July 9th in Toronto and promises to be one heck of a good time.
The Toronto Star recently covered the event and its coordinator, Rich Gosse, used a picture of the famous age-gap couple Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher. Rich Gosse explained to the paper that women like Demi Moore and Madonna have made it socially acceptable for women to seek younger men and for men to seek older women. Held at the Tattoo Rock Parlour, the Cougar Convention will for sure break social expectations.
