Yes, an interesting article. Yet it does pass over a more modern take on the subject. Is not a gigolo a prostitute also? Do we have any euphemisms for the male side of the oldest profession?
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.

Male prostitute is the only one that comes to mind. Isn't a gigolo not an overt prostitute, but a guy who cuts a swath through the society matrons with a view to living off them?

Ah, as opposed to a courtesan?

Boy toys.

I thought a boy toy was a playmate for a cougar.

It is, Perry, but a price has to be paid by the cougar. Boy toys don't just grow on trees.

I only know what I see in the movies. But I suspect said boy toys often stalk said cougars.

As do ladies of the night stalk Johns.
