MILF (, as if read as "milf") is an acronym that stands for "'''mother I'd like to fuck'". This abbreviation is usually used in colloquial English instead of the whole phrase. It connotes an older woman, typically one with children, considered sexually attractive. A related term is "cougar", which suggests an older woman in active pursuit of a sexual relationship with younger men.
