Sugar baby pacts leave a sour taste

HOW sad that young Irish women are willing to enter into creepy “sugar baby” arrangements in return for gifts.

Pretty girls hardly out of their teens end up being mathced with much older men mainly for money.

TV star Vogue Wiliams was moved to tears when she met an innocent 19-year-old Irish girl whose sugar daddy was a friend of her uncle’s.

Vogue explores the whole sordid concept in her RTE show when she attends Ireland’s first sugar baby coaching event.

The 19-year-old virgin told Vogue she had no money, in college and that she had paired up with a man more than twice her age.

The young women go on to the sugar baby website and end up being targetted by much older men.

The older men say they want to help the girls through college or with the career, but in reality most want to sleep with them.

It is really not much different to working as an escort.

The model clashes with Brook Urick, the American organiser of the event – and rightly so.

Organisers say if girls are discussing what they are to be paid they are sex workers. They claim sugar babies are not paid, they are gifted.

What a load of nonsense. What you have are pervy old men who want to be seen with pretty young women – and are prepared to cough up, either in treats, gifts, or cash.

Let’s hope Vogue’s programme opens their eyes to what really awaits them.
