That true, "sugar babies" have been around for 100s of years though, we just called them "mistresses", "courtesans", etc. in the olden days.

What's changed is technology makes it easier to find them.
Are you sure?
The Courtesans I thought they were the SW, And the Mistresses would be groomed by the guy at the same time for his future use after he had enough with the Courtesan. I mean you don't expect men back then to stick to one woman Courtesan unless it's his wife for ever do you?

I am sure most men here switch SW per month.

SB's are escorts who don't want to call themselves escorts.
Exactly. They can feed you whatever line it sob story they want. Still same thing. They prob have more than 1 SD on rotation. But sure go ahead and think you are the only one. They just play on emotions more than an sp. so is more honest in my opinion. At least they call a spade a spade. Saw lots of new girls on LL just before Xmas. I’m sure more on a sites as well. Lots of sps are not about the life either. They go home at the end of the day and take care of their kids or family. Just like the rest of us. It’s all the sane. Money for sex, sex for money.

Sir, this is an escort review forum, I don't think I'd expect men in 2022 to stick to one woman :D

Courtesans (Courtier for a man), Mistresses (the female form of Master), and kept woman are all older words for unmarried women, but usually they were upper-class themselves.

Mistresses are what we'd call a side-piece/girlfriend now.

"grooming" is kind of a loaded term now when it comes to sex. I wouldn't really use it unless you're talking creepy guys cruising for 15yo - leave that to Kevin Spacy and Asia Argento

That's the thing, I think some guys prefer one or the other but many guys are probably not exclusively in one camp or the other either.

I just want to be in and out. Not trying to 'meet' anyone.
That's totally true. Sometimes you just want a "bang and go" :D

That's one reason I think the government should just legalize brothels instead of this legal mess we have now.

Years ago, agencies could at least list the services each lady provided, but that seemed to stop after 2015.

The poll question, aka Thread Title, does not really match up well with the voting categories. It is misleading.
The internet largely killed strip clubs in North America; How many streetwalkers do you see in Toronto anymore?

It's been dying for years by a combination of the internet and anti-sex activists in government.

For all we know sugaring is a gateway and it ends up drawing more women into escort industry after they become disillusioned with sugaring
I'd think that most women are on sugar sites because they don't want to have sex with a dozen random guys each week. They'd rather have 1-3 guys they see every now and then.

I could be wrong, but most women in the sex industry don't aspire to work at an agency, they want to move into another area, either into management, become an independent and build their brand, or land a whale and retire :)

Sugaring is really it's own thing. The women on Seeking do not act or behave like escorts. Many of them do not identify as sex workers. They treat sugar dating more like an untraditional relationship, which has its benefits over seeing escorts.

The biggest challenge is that there aren't a lot of attractive women on Seeking. Most are average looking. You can get a gorgeous escort for $400/h without much hassle, but even if you manage to find any on Seeking, they might not respond, might be a scammer, might be a toe-dipper etc. If you very particular, such as seeking out Asian women, than you could be waiting around for a while. When I first started, I met several Asian women immediately in the first couple of weeks. When I came back, it took me months to find someone.

If you manage to connect with someone though, and can afford to meet up regularly, than the experience can be better than anything you can get with a GFE escort.

If you are paying by the visit instead of a monthly fee you have a trick/prostitute relationship, not a SD/SB thing. Just because you identify or don't identify as something doesn't make it true.

I'd also say that if you have a monthy rate but the number and time of visits are set in stone... it's still a t/p think not a Sugar thing. It's a bit more complex.

I get the impression from skimming past threads that for many dudes, SA is more about going through the fuckery to find a better rate than actually getting a Sugar Baby

Sugar dating isn't killing the Sex Industry, it's just another part of the Sex Industry. Another option for both the buyer and the seller.

Agencies and Indy escorts aren't going anywhere.

I agree but think it may be hurting the SCs.

SB's are escorts who don't want to call themselves escorts.
True ok. But for me the only difference i saw is that with SB i got girl who handpicked the guys they've accepted to have sex with. They wouldn't have serviced every one showing at the door like escort. That's a big difference but that's also why i stopped SB because it's way too much time consuming.

It's obvious from many of the comments here that those posting have not tried the SB world.
Nothing wrong with that but don't post things like "SBs are escorts who don't want to call themselves escorts" when you don't know what you are talking about.
An SB is not for someone who is looking for a 30-minute quickie.
It's more suitable for those looking for an evening or overnight getaway. I have been on several trips with my SB and we have both had a fabulous time.
Previously, I saw mostly escorts. Now I see my SB almost exclusively.

Good point, yes they get to pick.
