MILF, M.I.L.F (read as “milf”) is an acronym that stands for “Mother I’d Like to Fuck“. This abbreviation is used in the English slang, instead of saying the whole phrase. It means an older/mature woman, typically one with children, considered sexually attractive. A related example is a “cougar”, which suggests an mature woman that wants sex with younger men sometimes also know as toy boy.

History of the word MILF

Linguist Laurel A. Sutton states that M.I.L.F was one of nine terms for “attractive women” collected from undergraduates at a large linguistics class at Berkeley in the spring of 1992. Stereotypical users would be “college students from East Contra Costa, California”. The term was widely popularized by the film American Pie (1999), where John Cho’s character (simply credited as ‘MILF Guy No. 2’) used the term to refer to Jennifer Coolidge’s character Jeanine Stifler (Stifflers Mom). American Pie screenwriter Adam Herz stated that he did not invent the phrase.
