I bring it up because in the strictest sense of the word I have been either a Sugar Daddy or Sugar Baby at one time or the other. When I was younger I had a fairly well to do girlfriend help me with College and a car. Once I became established I found myself doing the same thing in another relationship.
If I was to critique many of the posters here I bet I would find similar situations
I see where you are getting at there are probably a lot of different dynamics than the standard definition suggest.
The word itself is a total turnoff to me. Nobody's a prince or princess. We make our own way. Hell no would I pay another women to be with me. Hell to the NO! I hate people like that with a passion and it is my "biggest" turnoff. I look at girls or guys like that as very/ extremely sad and pathetic. I look at girls who want a sugar daddy as ultra pathetic. Complete peon, loser, waste of life. Go make your own money loser. Nothing I can't stand more.
well...I don't know his exact age but he's more than a few years older than me. We met on a site that's specifically for SBs and SDs. PS LOTS of johns on that site looking for discount escorts, don't fall for it ladies. We just started the arrangement so I haven't traveled with him yet...but he compensates me generously for the convenience of this situation and hanging out with him for a few hours. I couldn't see him in normal relationship, he's too much of a workaholic.
So, it is a "True" SD/SB relationship and not one that fits all of the loose definitions. Do you think the compensations exceeds 12k a year?
Of course not. I don't have to pay women to be with me.
it's not really so much that you're paying a girl to be with you. Sometimes you're paying for a very specific situation. Many of these SDs guys say they have girls who want to be their girlfriend, or want a relationship with them but they don't want the drama of a real relationship, and have major time constraints. Usually a girl wouldn't be down for the little time and attention an SD could actually offer due to his life circumstances, so they turn to arrangements like these.
Yeah, but it starts to deviate from the topic of "would YOU be a sugar daddy......" and into "describe the mindset of a sugar daddy...."
As I have already mentioned, I could never be a sugar daddy myself. But I am responding as a relatively young guy with a wife who is hotter than most Hollywood acctresses who gets great sex regularly. Now, if I were an older, single guy, living a comfortable life, but in an extreme drought when it comes to sex, or, only have rare and occasional sex offered by old, wrinkly, elephant grey, dried up, saggy boobed and droopy bootied, post menupausal Nancy Reagan-esqe types, then I would GLADLY and HAPPILY prefer to become a sugar daddy to some 18-22 year old girl who would exchange regular sex for a few dollars to buy som Mac eyeliner, Juicy pants, a new Coach purse or books for her education at USC, UCLA or Pepperdine.
So, consider the options: 1) No sex; 2) sex with old dried up pruny sandpaper private having post menupausal grannies, or 3) regular sex with young nubile firm hot bodied girls for a few dollars or gifts here and there Its an easy decision to make for an older guy living a comfortable life.
But me, personally, nope I cant see myself doing it.
I'm see it as not looking at the sugar daddy mindset but more of a social mindset. Now we live in a time where everyone can make there own way and woman making more than a man is entirely plausible the idea of an older man taking care or catering to a younger woman makes no sense. In days past this would probably not even be looked at with such disdain. In the past an older man would have the money and young woman would probably not have much so in social functional way it in made sense.
Now that society has change and shifted this makes no sense and is seen as deviant behavior.
I answered my question on a personal level but LS Juan brought up an interesting point in looking at in broader sense.
There was a article in the news paper I think last week about seeking arrangements I was shocked that sugar daddies/mummies were looking for sugar babies!! It's mostly students looking for a wealthy male or female, they spend time (sexual i assume) with the wealthy individual in exchange for gifts and a monthly allowance.
