sugar daddy

Sugar dating, also called sugaring, is a pseudo-romantic relationship between an older, wealthy person and a younger person. Payment can be received by way of money, gifts like designer goods, jewellery, support or other material benefits in exchange for sex, companionship or a dating-like relationship. The person who receives the gifts is called a sugar baby (or in the case of men, traditionally a gigolo), while their paying partner is called a sugar daddy or sugar momma (also spelled sugar mama).Sugar dating is especially popular in the online dating community due to the easy access to specific niches and desires. The term was coined by Alma de Bretteville Spreckels, who married Adolph B. Spreckels, the heir to a sugar fortune, and called him "sugar daddy".
