For some reason, several people have posted and announced themselves as feminists and said that this it pathetic for the woman. What about the man? Is it pathetic that the man has to spend literally thousands of dollars just for companionship for three months in the hopes that he might get some companionship and sex? Is it pathetic that only rich men can make such a proffer? I don't see that patheticness except that it is considered immoral (and I hope it's not illegal).
What's the problem? I thought most women would go out with a guy that could show her a good time and lavish his attentions (and food and drink tabs) on her. Feminists might say they want to pay their way, but there is still the element of giving of one's time. We all are doint it, just at different levels.
