AIBU?

to think this 'dating site' is surely just prostitution?

'Generous' members pay 'attractive' members for the opportunity of a first date. Apparently everyone has their price.

www.whatsyourprice.com/

Have yet to spot an 'attractive' male or a 'generous' female.

So AIBU to think this is pretty much prostitution, or since it is just setting a price on a first date (so not sex necessarily) can it be considered to a more honest, upfront (romance-killing commercialisation) approach to men paying for the first date? (I have always paid half on dates, it's a privilege for someone to get to pay for me (!) only once I'm in a relationship, in the same way I would be happy for a friend to treat me - and vice versa - but not an acquaintance). I just don't get WHY anyone (male or female) would want to go on a date knowing they had had to pay for the pleasure of that person's company! Is there any difference between accepting a meal, to accepting the cash value of a meal (or even perhaps luncheon vouchers as the in-between option)?

you are right, just looked at one chaps who said 'if i'm paying for more' Hmm

tbh I don't know why any woman would put a price on herself like that?!? (maybe i've got the wrong attitude/am too snobbish/prudish?)

I just had a look at attractive members and I disagree with their self assessment!

OMG, just looked at that site - one of the generous guys has his wedding photo as his profile! How wrong is that!!!
