This is why it is nearly impossible to study protitution scientifically: How does one define it? If something is real it must be definable and measurable.
These types of "arrangement" are so common as to be uncountable. They are extremely common, for example, among affluent Asian businessmen and often with the tacit approval of the spouse in a don't ask, don't tell arrangement.
The question here -- is gold digging prostitution -- is as old as dirt. One reason there is no "good" answer is that nothing will ever change so long as attractive -- and younger -- women have something to offer in the boudoir and men have money and power.
Maybe I'm oversimplifying here, but it sounds like two people that are just perfect for one another...
I feel sorry for this young woman that she may be passing up finding an actual relationship while wasting her time with this guy. Or she may not be capable of a real emotional connection. It's sad.
This is right on target. A woman (or man) can sell their bodies if they want, but time goes fast and why pass up any chance of a real loving relationship and family? For designer shoes? Not worth it.

Does this bozo realize that he just compared Melissa Beech to Norman Mailer and Beethoven?
------------------------------------
There are various degrees to every profession...
... prostitution is no different.
Literature has Norman Mailer, Vladimir Nabokov, David Foster Wallace... and also Jonathen Franzen, Dan Brown, Tucker Max.
Lawyers have Alexander Hamilton, Clarence Darrow, Glenn Greenwald... and also Mark Geragos, Alberto Gonzales, uh, Eliot Spitzer
Musicians count among their members Ludwig von Beethoven, Maurice Ravel, Jimi Hendrix... and also Poison, Milli Vanilli, and the Backstreet Boys.
And with yer Prostitutes, you have the street-walking crack whores... and also the Melissa Beeches.

But only if you're between 18-29 years of age, 6' to 6'6" tall, with a BMI of 18.5-21 and body fat percentage of <15%, broad shoulders, narrow hips, nice arse, a penis at least 7" long, a full head of lush shoulder-length or longer hair, and a classically handsome face.
Question: which would you find easier--to become rich enough to hire a beautiful young kept woman, or to fit the above standards yourself?
No offense, but I know more than one or two women who are in a semi-similar situation. It really isn't that uncommon.
But my point is this...if there is a common perception among women that they can sell themselves exclusively for a set price, material goods, comfort and luxury...then don't be surprised when we treat them exactly how they treat themselves, as an object that can be bought and sold...only this time, they are setting the price willingly.
Also...please remember that most of the men who are doing this tend to be married. So we have the added, and lovely, factor that this is a continuation of an un-happy situation that is only getting worse.
Grown ups...all of them.
Not.
Are "mistress", "kept woman", "courtesan", and "gold digger" really just euphemisms for "prostitute"?
Or is "prostitute" really just a sanctimonious and judgmental synonym for those other terms?
is apparently more important than values.
Can't help but imagine her thought process.

I never did look like a young Brad Pitt or other hunk but I did at one time hit a good number of your requirements, and would have been able to meet a good proportion more of them.
Brightstar: You can be MY kept man!
But only if you're between 18-29 years of age I was once 18, 6' to 6'6" tall, I am 5'11", damn! with a BMI of 18.5-21 and body fat percentage of <15%, Probably never naturally that low, but I was skinny, and had I actually cared at the time, am sure I could have figured out how to use the Soloflex broad shoulders, girlfriend did specifically cite my shoulders at that time. narrow hips, I guess nice arse, I'll go with that a penis at least 7" long, got me there, it is only 6.5ish", but thicker than most. a full head of lush shoulder-length or longer hair,One can grow that. It was shaggy back in the eighties. and a classically handsome face. Well, some people love Fabio's face, other love Johnny Depp, so that changes with the woman.
Question: which would you find easier--to become rich enough to hire a beautiful young kept woman, or to fit the above standards yourself?
I am still struggling to be rich enough to get whom I choose (at age 43).
Meanwhile it would have been a BEAUTIFUL LIFE to be able to live in Malibu or Southampton in my early 20s, meeting all sorts of wealthy patrons, some of whom might learn I have some skills beyond being a hunk and who might begin to invest in a few of my business ideas.
No contest, not by a long shot. Hunk would have been preferable. Assuming there were even available slots.
One more thing.
Of all the women who I know who have been in situations like this...
...ALL of them, not just a few, but ALL, have difficulties having >real< relationships afterwards. They are addicted to the easy money, the easy materialism and how it makes them feel...and they have a VERY hard time creating a real relationship based on what we would normally attribute to two people getting together for. Things like love, communication, trust, honesty, compromise, dedication and caring.
They come out of these sugar-daddy relationships lacking in the above skills...as the basis of >their< most important relationships are based on money. Nothing more, nothing else.
And besides, what are these women going to do when they get older...and are no longer desirable enough to "fetch a price". They now lack good inter-relationship skills...and no longer "have the goods" to bring in the money.
...And not only that, they know have ZERO job skills to get real and productive jobs where they could actually persue a career.
Yes...I've seen this too many times.
FYI - this is why Muslims hate us.
Muslims got them too.
But point taken, you do seem to understand one big, maybe key, reason they like to despise us, other than we stick our mitts in their business all the time.
and engage in one night stands in their youth seem to be the same way.

They cannot become involved in real relationships either.

How big is your data sample?
Also, I imagine it's tough to honestly know how much of their difficulties with "real" relationships has to do with their previous sugar-daddy relationships. Certainly lots of people without that history also have difficulties with real relationships.
