Britpick Question

Do you use the term sugar daddy?  Or do you have something comparable?  If the slang doesn't translate it's defined as:  A wealthy, usually older man who gives expensive gifts to a young person in return for sexual favors or companionship according to www.dictionary.com.

I think they're generally just called politicians aren't they? *g*

True. *grins* But unhelpful in this context.

We use it :)

Thanks.

Yeah we use it. There's also cradle snatching, if you are on about an older man and a younger woman.

So the same ones apply. I never know with slang.

I hold the top definition for "Sugar daddy" on urbandictionary! From five years ago. :D

Oh, sorry, I was just going through and answering all the comments and just got in a hurry. I thought it was an interesting definition actually. Or the example of use it in a sentence anyway. Made me laugh.
