We cannot discuss paid dating without addressing the "Fantasy Laborers"—primarily women, though not exclusively. The modern paid dating provider is not a victim snatched off a street corner (though sex trafficking is a horrific, distinct reality that must be separated from voluntary sex work). She is often a student, an artist, or a single mother who has realized that emotional labor is a marketable skill.

Are you brave enough to date your own fantasy?
