Some of the most popular dating websites are those created for older, wealthy individuals looking for young attractive boyfriends and girlfriends. The older wealthy individuals are referred to as Sugar Daddies, and the Sugar Daddy matching business is booming. However, being as both parties enter into the relationship knowingly, exchange money and expensive regalia for a companionship and whatever else it brings, so it has been compared to prostitution. On an ABC News investigation into the chemistry of Sugar Daddy relationships, a sugar baby named Melanie stated, “She is 100 percent having sexual intercourse with that man. Escort means usually a nicer word for prostitute, but [a] sugar baby is a relationship you’re dating someone but you have a monthly allowance”(ABC News, The Anatomy of Dating A Sugar Daddy Jan 2010). Often Sugar Babies get more then an allowance, including new luxury cars, access to yachts, and designer clothing. To learn more, some popular Utah SugarDaddy websites are: seekingarrangement.com, SugarDaddyforme.com, Sugardaddie.com, affluentarrangements.com. If you find yourself questioned by the law you should contact the best possible Utah criminal defense attorney as whether or not this type of dating is a form of prostitution is a legal issue yet to be determined.
