Sugar Daddy, fact or fiction?

I recently saw a very popular article on Huffington Post about the Sugar Daddy - Sugar Baby scene. for those of you not in the the know the scene is called the 'sugar bowl' and is where eligible young women are compensated for their company by older gentlemen of means.

Or at least that's the theory, the myth. Is there some reality to it some where? Absolutely. As long as there are rich men and pretty women they will find a way to get together. But these websites that claim to offer a virtual Ebay of rich men willing to treat you like a princess, is there anything to them?

I say no, not really. These sites are just thinly veiled prostitution. Just read through the HuffPo article:

"While she and her host hadn't agreed to a set amount of money, on the drive back to the train station in Greenwich he handed her $350 in cash. She pocketed the envelope, seeing it as decent money for half a day's work. But once on the train and no longer worried for her safety, she started to agonize over what she had just done."

This girl just spent a day with a John and for $350 for sex. There are escorts who make more in 1 hour...and, as the article reveals, he never called her again.

Do a little research and you can find threads on cam girl message boards where they talk endless about how dead and filled with losers most of the big sugar daddy sites are or you'll find comments like this from sugar-bloggers:

"Or the fact that more and more sugar daddies without substantial means are entering the arena. They are aware that this segment of the industry is flooded with sugar babies and they are calling the shots. There are now websites that allow men to pay for dates with suggested prices as low as $25. It’s your guess what activity most of these sugar daddies seek."

She's hinting at exactly what I believe is going on. Guys are using the PROMISE of a rich sugar daddy to turn you into a low priced escort.

Girls, keep in mind that men are bastards, and act accordingly.
