The originally Dutch article, ‘Helft vrouwen vindt inhuren gigolo slim’, from the Dutch Online magazine ‘Singlessite.nl’, can be read here. The translated text of the article is written out below.
Hiring a gigolo is becoming less and less taboo. As many as half of all women today consider paying for sex as a woman smart, modern and sensible. This is evident from research by the online magazine ‘Singlessite.nl’, which interviewed 650 women about the phenomenon of paid sex.
The image of paid sex for women is no longer hidden in the dark and is slowly breaking free from the taboo atmosphere. As said, as many as half of the women nowadays regard hiring a gigolo as clever and modern. A small minority of women however, still see paid sex as dirty, stupid or vulgar.
Of all women surveyed, 10% have acted on their words and hired a gigolo. The number of women who are currently seriously considering ordering a man for sex is 21%. Another 40% say they sometimes play with the idea.
The gigolo has to be an all-rounder to meet the sexual preferences of the modern woman.
It is striking that despite various articles in women’s magazines in which the growing need for anal sex is emphasized, we do not see this reflected here. Apparently, anal sex with a gigolo is not seen as a must and is therefore at the bottom of the wish list.
Since this is a business transaction, the question arises how much one is prepared to pay for two hours of sex with a gigolo. 28% say they would pay a maximum of €100 for this. For 26% this is between €100 and €200 and only 7% are willing to pay between €200 and €300 for the lovemaking of their dreams. A very small minority of 3% have between €300 and €400 left over.
What type of women are they who are willing to pay for a male sex partner? According to the ladies surveyed, these are first and foremost well-educated women and businesswomen. Women over forty and single women also score high. Low-educated women, housewives and married women are considered to be the least likely customers.
