Today the women described in this article would be a combination of a prostitute and a “sugar-baby” to a “sugar-daddy”. Like others I found “dating,” “pick-ups,” “occasional prostitution,” and “temporary alliances” (329) as odd names to give to these casual sexual encounters, as if they were nothing at all.
