I've been called that a couple of times. Tacky and cringeworthy but harmless really.

What does it mean?

I assumed it was something to do with mother in law?

Eugh. I had to google that. Better than googling dragon butter, but yuck all the same.

Not nice - but I suspect I'm just jealous as I'd never fall into that category! Grin

It means Mother I'd like To Fuck. It's tacky and charmless and used by a certain type of person

Oh I'd be made up if someone called me a MILF! What an ego boost.

Probably never happen :(

It sounds like a phrase coined by a woman.. I can't see a man thinking of anything like that with 'mother' in the title. Ick.. Confused

From what I gather mumnotmachine, it's said by a younger lad of a woman in her 30/40's.

It's a bloody awful term. It's supposed to be some sort of compliment but the whole "wow, she's a mother and I'd still like to fuck her" thing is just odd. Does this mean that the minute a "normal" woman has a child she immeediately becomes completely unattractive but that, in exceptional circumstances, there is a mother who is sexually attractive?

Really, really offensive, I think.

No belle.

It was originally used in the scenario of teen boys fancying their mates mums.

Shakirasma - I know where it came from but that's not how it's become more widely applied.

It's just another term showing sexual objectification and nothing more...
