For a mere $30 entrance fee, L.A.‘s “cougars”—and the younger men who love them—can learn all there is to know about the intricacies of older woman/younger man dating and mating rituals Friday at the California Cougar Convention. Like: Who pays for dinner? Inquiring minds (and aspiring gigolos) want to know.

The event will feature a keynote speech by “cougar expert” Lucia (see video clip below), the crowning of Miss Cougar California (selected by the “cubs” attending) and what is being described as a “giant feline dance party.” Prior to the main event, there will be a women-only “Cougar School” for aspiring Mrs. Robinsons that begins at 6:30 p.m.
 

 
(Speaking as a guy, when I watched this clip, all of the men in it have that “this is like shooting fish in a barrel” look in their eyes. I suppose that’s the point, isn’t it?)
