Cash-rich Sugar Daddies Meet Goal Seeking Sugar Babies

QQ MAGAZINE – Mar 2 - SeekingArrangement.com is a dating site set up by 41-year-old MIT graduate Brandon Wade in 2006 that acts as a "fixer" for "modern sugar daddies" and "goal-seeking sugar babies". The site has now ~ 600K paying members. Many claiming these "ar­rangements" amount to little more than so­licitation and prostitution. "The site started because of my own per­sonal frustrations with meeting women online," Brandon explains. "I wanted to create a site where I could meet beautiful, open-minded women – simple as that. The stereotypical notions of gold-digging women and lecherous old men just don't apply any more." Over 80% of female members online have a college degree – these women aren't dumb. They all have goals. "Gentlemen are a dying breed, especially in America. There's this feeling that women have gone through a lot to fight for feminist rights, and now they are, indeed, equals. But they've lost something along the way. In becoming equals, so the etiquette of being a traditional gentleman – standing up when they enter, opening doors, paying for dinner on the first date – has been lost. This is what draws a lot of women to the site, and I think being taken care of by a stronger man is – deep down – what a lot of women really long for."
