I really want Becky and Alexa to have a TLC match . I wanna see either a Bexplex or a Twisted Bliss on the tables . <| sep |> Well written article . I guess you will agree that this is certainly your opinion about sugaring vs escorting and you are definitely entitled to have one like the rest of us . In any healthy environment you will agree that it can be debated and a rebuttal can be offered although I certainly see shitstorm incoming soonWith that being said , the society definesnames a relationship . If I give money to a stranger in need without anything in return it is charity . I donate monthly to a girl ' s orphanage in my kids name and expensive medicines to poor people in remembrance of my parents that is charity and it feels good to do some good in this world . The moment I expect something in return is when it moves away from charity . If I am expecting some work to be done in return it is either wage or compensation for their work . If I am expecting a young woman or man to spend time with me who would not in ideal scenario , it is compensation for her work . Everything from here on is sex work as per society whether sex is involved or not . In older days , royals teenagers males used to stay with courtesans to learn manners . But some courtesan did provide sex and hence it comes under the umbrella of sex work . A lot of girls are using twitch . tv and playing games and accepting donation . Some people still consider it as sex work . Their position is that these girls are selling sexual fantasies to these guys who are donating them . I saw another posting today which mentioned sugar babies provide true affection . How am I to judge whether that affection is true or false besides taking someones word as gospel of truth . Some escorts provide the illusion of true affection which can be nowhere compared to what a regular SB can provide . There is reason why they are called professional . With all this being said , IMHO it all comes under the umbrella of sex work . The negative connotation the society has attached to words escorts or prostitute and their media image of street walkers or lizards is the reason why both SBs and SDs find it difficult to accept that it is all the same in principle yet different in the way it is acted out .
