This is pretty much unrelated to my normal line of blogging, but I've mentioned "cougars" once before so I thought I'd share this story I came across today on the Huffington Post: "Carnival Cruises Bans 'Cougars,' 'Cubs' From Future Trips."
Basically Carnival wants to keep its family friendly image, so it has turned down the request of a singles travel club to have a second "cougar-themed" cruise. What do you think? Should Carnival have done this? Do you want me (and everyone else) to refrain from mentioning "cougars" ever again?

Honestly, if there are ladies out there who want to call themselves cougars and get it on with younger gents, I have no problem with that. I also don't have any problem with them organizing cruises around the idea. It wouldn't be the first romantic-themed (or sex-themed) cruise ever to be invented. The fact that Carnival finds it unacceptable says a bit about Carnival, don't you think? Gay cruises are total chill but the idea of a young man finding an older woman attractive is just too ick?
