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.

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)?

that is horrible. and even tho it appears to be in the states,i'm guessing it will wing its way over here eventually.

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!!!
