SAN RAFAEL, CA, September 17, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Cougars from throughout California are invited to compete for the title of Miss Cougar California at the first-ever California Cougar Convention, Friday, November 6, 2009, at the Crowne Plaza Beverly Hills, 1150 S Beverly Drive, Los Angeles CA. Cubs (younger men) in attendance will decide who wins the contest. Adults of all ages are welcome.
LUCIA , "Queen of the Cougar Jungle" (KTLA TV), will deliver the Keynote Address: The Cougar Revolution. "When young men think of a Cougar," says Lucia, "they imagine a single woman over 40 who is attractive, sexy, classy, confident, fit, independent, and healthy. True Cougars are vibrant, have glowing skin, shiny hair, and dress with class. They often look much younger than their actual age. Unfortunately, the news media is sensationalizing the Cougar Revolution by focusing on WANNA-BE COUGARS, who don't look healthy, often have over-tanned skin and straw hair, are overweight, show too much cleavage, are sleazy rather than sexy, and look older than their age."
Lucia is the author of Lucia's Lessons of Love and a syndicated columnist. She hosts The Art of Love Show on http://www.LAtalkradio.com. She was voted Miss Urban Cougar in December 2005 by UrbanCougar.com. She is the veteran of numerous interviews, including Dr. Phil, The Tyra Banks Show, CBS Early Show, VH1, 60 Minutes Australia, Danny Bonaduce Show, etc. Lucia is available to the news media for interviews by calling Ashley Ulrich at 562-537-6277. Lucia's website is http://www.theartoflove.net.
"Age discrimination is perhaps the most pervasive prejudice in American Society," says Rich Gosse, Producer of this convention, as well as the wildly successful National Single Cougar Convention this past August 28. "Older women, in particular, are victimized by our youth-oriented society. They are regarded as 'non-sexy'. Supposedly every American male is only attracted to nubile 20 year olds found in the centerfolds of men's magazines. The truth is that there are millions of American men who find older women attractive, and we will prove it at the California Cougar Convention!"
Rich Gosse is America's foremost authority on finding a romantic partner. He is the author of eight books on this topic, including You CAN Hurry Love, Singles Guide to America, and A Good Man Is EASY to Find ("This is a great book!" Oprah Winfrey). His entertaining advice has been featured by ABC, BBC, CBS, CNN, CNBC, Fox News Live, MSNBC, Oprah, Donahue, Cosmopolitan, Newsweek, Entrepreneur, Business Week, Playboy, Playgirl, The Wall Street Journal, London Times, The Australian, The New Zealand Herald, etc. Mr. Gosse is available to the news media for interviews by calling 415/479-3800. His website is http://www.RichGosse.com. Mr. Gosse will be in Europe, September 28 - October 19, escorting the Singles Mediterranean Cruise. During that time he is only accessible by email at rich@richgosse.com.
The cost for the California Cougar Convention is $30. Overnight rooms at this luxury boutique hotel are available at an additional cost of $129 per night. Coat & tie/dressy attire are recommended.
The highpoint of the Convention will be the Miss Cougar California Contest. One cougar at the convention will be awarded the title and prizes, which include a free berth on The World's First International Cougar Cruise, December 4-7, 2009, courtesy of http://www.SinglesTravelCompany.com.
