Potential positives of sugar dating could include financial support, the opportunity to travel or experience new things, and the chance to form a meaningful connection with someone who shares similar interests. However, it is important to note that these benefits may come with risks and potential downsides.

Some potential negatives of sugar dating include the risk of exploitation or abuse, the potential for emotional attachment or feelings of obligation, and the fact that it may not be a sustainable or reliable source of income. Additionally, it is important to consider the potential impact on one's personal values and self-worth, as well as the potential for negative stigma or judgment from others.

As for whether or not someone should pursue sugar dating, it is ultimately a personal decision that should be made after careful consideration of the potential risks and benefits. It is important to set clear boundaries and expectations with any potential partner and to prioritize one's own safety and well-being.

In terms of age, 18 is legally considered an adult, but it is important to note that anyone considering sugar dating should be aware of the potential risks and consequences, especially if they are still in a vulnerable or inexperienced position.

I want to know your thoughts on it? Let me know the positives and negatives, also would you do it? Also include your age, is 18 too young, and how much you think you should get?
It depends on your ambitions, finances, personal values and relationship expectations.
The sugarbaby market is intensely competitive and a woman's shelf life is limited.

Some of my friends have worked as sugarbabies when they were students or graduates unable to obtain any paid work.
They viewed it as a preferable alternative to being cam girls or working in adult only dancing venues.
It is very important to remember that most sugardaddies have very high standards with short attention spans and the highest allowances will involve selling sex.

I think it is wrong on every level and sums up everything that is wrong with capitalism. You’re basically selling your body for money ie money in return for having sex with some nasty old guy who can’t get a women any other way.How can that be a good thing whatever way you look at it? I think women who go down this route are lazy, cheap, and classless.

Nothing is free in life. If you want money, work for it like a normal person and get a proper job. Selling your body for money is not a proper job. It’s disgusting.

Capitalism is the root of all evil in this world.

Playing in to the hands of some morally bankrupt and potentially unpleasant man. While undermining a solid principle of finding your way based on education and intellect rather than just sex appeal. Can’t really think of a positive

Just date sn older man in his mid 30s at 18 with the end goal of marriage. It won’t be seen as cheap classless or shameful. Have a family with him and if you love each other you get all the benefits with no downsides

If it is the root of all evil. Shouldn’t you stop participating in it.
My personal opinion is that if you’re both completely clear and honest with each other about what you want out of the relationship then where’s the harm in it?… if it’s in a situation where people are gaining false hope of something that isn’t there, that’s where it becomes a bit iffy morally and perhaps even dangerous
