A cougar (or couger) is simply defined as "an older woman looking for a younger man" according to internetslang.com.

Wikipedia defines a cougar as a woman over 30-40 who wants to date men at least 8 years younger.

In either case the term cougar is descriptive of Martha based on her match.com profile.
