Sugar baby
<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>
A sugar baby is a type of mistress who dates wealthy, older men, while receiving cash and expensive gifts in exchange for being in the relationship.[1] The practice is known as sugaring. This emerging trend has produced the highest number of sugar babies in the United States, followed by Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia and Colombia.[2] In America, students are able to find men through online dating services with such names as "Sugardaddie", "SeekingArrangement", "SugarDaddyForMe", and "MutualArrangements".[3][4][5][6] The site SeekingArrangement claims to have over 1.4 million students among its members, comprising 42 percent of registrants. Almost one million of these are in the United States.[7] According to one of the main websites that connects the two parties, 36% of what they receive goes to tuition payments, while 23% is used to pay rent. The rest is spent on books, transportation, clothes, and other items.[2]
Legal status
The online sites used for introducing people who may negotiate sugar arrangements are technically dating sites. Membership on one site in 2016 was $70 a month for sugar daddies, but free for sugar babies. What happens after the initial date, whether much or nothing, involving sex or not, is between the parties.[8]
