As the cost of tuition and rent rises, so does the apparent popularity of such sites among students. But are they really providing financial relief, or signing women up for something more exploitative and dangerous than debt?Kashani believes such sites are a “great resource” for young women, but others say these arrangements smack of prostitution and take advantage of women in a vulnerable situation.Lynn Comella, an associate professor of gender and sexuality studies at University of Nevada Las Vegas, said that it is not unusual for students to turn to sex work such as stripping, prostitution or webcam work to pay for school. But the sugar daddy sites are relatively new, and she says not entirely upfront about what they are really about.
Doesn't matter, there's nothing wrong with prostitution.

It's ripe for predation and abuse, and unlike other sex work it's completely unable to be regulated.
licensed businesses with proper security and protocols it would be fine.
Quote from: Tyger on May 30, 2016, 07:09:03 PMlicensed businesses with proper security and protocols it would be fine.What does this even mean? A business would monitor their entire lives 24/7 and make sure the client isn't abusive? The article describes it as "prostitution light", but it's far more significant than prostitution because it involves a continuous relationship (and sometimes cohabitation) instead of just sex. Prostitution can (and is, in some places) regulated.Stripping is regulated. Porn and cam work is regulated.Also, sugar daddying isn't illegal. It would only be illegal if they were explicitly exchanging money for sex, which isn't the case. There's basically no way to regulate it without forcing it to become prostitution.

You have no right to dictate what people are allowed to do to themselves.I absolutely have the moral right to protect young women from an experience they will 100% regret. The majority of people do stupid things and have no idea what they're in for. That's why these laws are in place.

Or teachers/students? Presidents/interns? Cops/suspects?

This isn't a business.
could be easily regulated
Protecting the dignity of women is a far more important and takes priority over allowing her to be a prostitute out of some misguided ideal about personal freedom.
If it's consensual.
what are your thoughts on "sugar daddying" for college students?
