What other names are sugar mommas called?

One interesting fact about the concept of sugar dating is that it is as old as time. Sugaring is not something that started recently, there are many instances in ancient records where such relationships existed. The Conservative nature of the world for several decades made it a sort of taboo until after the second world war. This period saw a different kind of culture emerge as women became more brazen with their relationships and it is no surprise that the rate of divorce grew sharply.  It was in the late 60s that the culture of sugar dating really gained a foothold in the American scene.
