As an <a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/education/archive/2015/01/where-the-sugar-babies-are/384547/" rel="nofollow">Atlantic</a> article on it pointed out, less than half of the "babies" are students, with "student" being defined as someone with a college e-mail address or proof of employment. We also don't know what the "success" rate is for prospective "sugar daddies" in going on dates with women, but I'll bet it's low. <br /><br /><br />I wouldn't be surprised if those numbers are higher than reality, as well.
