Like a genie - he may be a little old, but if a girl rubs his lamp, he'll grant her wishes.

A man who provides money or other favors in exchange for sexual relations.

An older man who is able to gain a younger woman by having lots of cash and assets. The younger woman is known as a 'gold digger'.
A sugar daddy is generally being used by the 'gold-digger' for his house, cars and clothes money.

A man (usually older and well-off) who financially supports a younger woman (or man) in exchange for sex and companionship.

Older males are in their money making prime And young women are in their money needing prime and beauty prime. These three primes often converge creating the secret underground "older man being financially generous to beautiful younger woman" situation.

The idea that all sugar daddies are rich is a stereotype and cliche. That's like saying "all johns are rich". Fact is, sometimes all a poor or needy female wants is for you to help her provide food and basic things for her children she can't afford or maybe help her afford cable television or an education or... just a place to live while she gets on her feet. It's not how rich YOU are that matters, its how POOR she is. Poor females are very open to sugardaddies of all income brackets (well, except maybe poor).

Sugar daddying young women is generally seen as "immoral behavior" but most believe that the origins of that taboo has more to do with society's hatred for "older men/young women" couples than money itself (a hatred likely invented by older women and indoctrinated into us via the mothering process).

Because of the somewhat taboo nature of sugar daddying or having a sugar daddy, most of these types of relationships are top secret and hush hush. You won't usually know that that 22 year old woman has a secret 51 year old sugar daddy who earns $60,000-$1,000,000 annually and provides for her as if she were his wife.

A young woman will usually not admit she has a sugar daddy since she knows she will be cal...

A man who lavishes a woman with money,gifts,etc.

a middle/old age man that supports a significant young woman in their life. Possibly sexual favors can be a reward for the sugar daddy's help or it can be done voluntarily.
