She's been credited with sparking a boom in the number of women seeking a toyboy.
But actress Demi Moore says she doesn't understand how she's become a poster girl for cross-generational relationships.
And the 46-year-old, labelled a cougar for her relationship with 15 years younger husband Ashton Kutcher, says she would rather be known as a puma.
'I'm certainly not the first person to be in a relationship with a younger man, but somehow I was plucked out as a bit of a poster girl,' she tells W magazine.
'I don't know why that is. But I just kind of step back sometimes and say "There is some reason, and what is it that I have to share in a positive way?"'
Recently Demi's marriage to Ashton was credited with causing a surge in women looking to date a younger man.Back in 2005, just 8 per cent of single women in their 40s and 50s said they would date a man five or more years their junior.
Today, more than a third said they would consider a younger man, according to online dating service Parship.
Despite the age gap, mother-of-three Demi says she and Ashton, 31, are still very much in love.'The most overwhelming part of meeting someone that you already felt you had such a deep and old connection with is that your feelings are greater than the time you’ve had to actually be with one another,' she said.
