This article is about the slang term for sexually attractive older females. For the Filipino paramilitary organisation, see Moro Islamic Liberation Front.

MILF, an acronym for "mother I'd like to fuck", is a common colloquial term generally regarded as vulgar when spelled out. Slight variations include mom I'd like to fuck.

Usage

MILF denotes a sexually attractive older female, generally between 35 and 50 in age and not necessarily an actual mother. The term was popularized by the film American Pie (1999),[1] though the origin of the term predates this (the term was already used for years on the Internet).[2] In addition, the term was used in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989) in a description of Bill's stepmom by Ted. In 2007, Spirit Airlines ran a promotional campaign titled "M.I.L.F.", described as meaning "Many Islands, Low Fares".[3]

Tori Amos' song "Big Wheel" on her 2007 album American Doll Posse refers to herself (or rather the character she portrays in the song) as a MILF.[4]

The Non-Offensive term Yummy Mummy also applies particularly in the UK, however there is a school of thought that this should only be applied to women under 30. [5] [6]
