I look through the Daily Progress every now and then for some interesting tidbits about Charlottesville. Today, I was both surprised and saddened to read about a case in which a James Gardner Dennis was charged with rape and and abduction of a 17 year old girl.
Apparently, he used the website Seeking Arrangement to solicit this girl. The website describes its services as creating:
“Mutually Beneficial Relationship” between two people. Such a relationship is usually between an older and wealthy individual who gives a young person expensive gifts or financial assistance in return for friendship, or intimacy.
Seriously?

“I am a very busy man. After using Seeking Arrangement, I met my sugar babies who have brought joy, excitement and passion to my life. Hugh Hefner isn’t the only man who is living the Playboy dream.” - Successful CEO
God, that sounds terrible, yet somehow awesome. The site, not the rape.
*ahem* Sorry. I know it’s a sick and sad story, but once I clicked on that link, I forgot all about the post.
i’m not going to say it. i’m just not going to say it any more.
That’s sad but so is insisting that your date pay for the privilige of going out with you. Whatever happened to equal rights, equal treatment
Well at least it SEEMS equal opportunity with both Sugar Momma’s and Daddies.
I wonder what a sugar momma is going to want for Mother’s Day?
Perhaps all that time I’ve put in the gym won’t have to go to waste…
what?!
and parlie- i look forward to you communicating without the “it” in your vocabulary;)
Haha I soooo signed up for that. But none of the Sugar Daddys are hot. They’re like old or foreign and live nowhere near C-ville.
But for real, that’s screwed up. He shouldn’t have raped her and she shouldn’t have signed up for that site all underage like that.
@8 perhaps you should sign up as a sugar momma and see what happens
@8- “Live nowhere near…” Duh. That’s a GOOD thing, no? As in “Just send money.” I know these 4 wealthy old guys out west, all in their 60s and 70s who bought a killer condo building in West LA, the entire building, and have filled it full of young wannabe models and actresses.
Every few weeks the old boys (none of whom are actually bad looking–truly amazing what money can do to keep you tan and fit) schlep a barrel of Viagra aboard the Gulfstream and jet off to LA to “check on their property”. The rest of the time the girls spend lounging around by the pool, shopping on Rodeo Drive, zooming around to fancy clubs and restaurants in their BWMs and AMGs… and hangin’ with their BOYFRIENDS.
I have to admit I was kind of like “Whooa-HA!?!” when I first realised the scale and brazen right-out-there-ness of what these guys were up to, and then I was surprised again at how genuinely happy most of the young women were. Most of the BFs were cool with it, too. Hot babe, hot ride, and so long as they disappear for a couple days a month its free! Seems like a pretty good gig all the way around… if you can get it.
Jay, quit telling everyone my secrets. I’ll have to kill everyone.
Sounds absolutely fantastic… where can I get me a 73 year old with false teeth and a dick that needs chemical help. I would spend days in bed with him, just licking out those wrinkles and begging him to flail around on top of me like a flatulent hairy dyspeptic walrus.
/or I could pay rent and get a car payment…hmmmm.. choices choices
@13 you said dyspeptic. hee hee.
/he can always leave the false teeth in a glass on the table by the bed…
Wassa-matta Flooz, no good offers? These guys have enough cash to buy tooth transplants. They can afford to have their wrinkles ironed out professionally, have excess hair removed with lasers, and get yearly injections of time-release Gas-X. And hard is hard… do you really care how it got that way?
Only if the glass is Baccarat crystal and he buys me the full set… twice.
LOL Jay…. nice one.
Jay…. $$$ can fix the teeth, suck the fat, laser the ear/nose hair and pop the blue pill but old guys will fucking ALWAYS wear their pants up under their armpits and show 2 inches of sock. It’s natures way of warning young ovaries away.
Oh dear gawd. It’s the Cougar vs. the Sugar Daddy smackdown.
/hiding in corner
I wear my trousers up to my armpits and show sock but I’m not rich. Life isn’t fair.
Flooz, you’re hangin’ with the wrong geriatrics. 70ish it the new 30-something and money has amazing power to make old guys attractive.
I know a guy about 72, Greek shipping heir, big yacht in Tropez. He’s fit, tan and throws a great party. He was on the Greek Olympic karate team just a few years ago and still wins tournaments. He’s literally married to a beautiful princess but he still pulls 20-something girlfriends. The guy has an amazing sense of style and he’s a crack-up. Last time I visited him he saw a photo of a cute young girl I know. “Who’s THIS?”, he says, and when I show him a couple more photos he says “Is she POOR?” He’s totally serious, and it works for him. The girls love him.
Ever been to Tropez, Danville or Rancho Santa Fe? Those places are full of rich old guys who take better care of themselves than most guys in their 20s and 30s. You should get out more.
I just don’t see it working out. Sad really.
@19- Hiding in the corner!?! Bullcrap. You just admitted you signed up for the SugarDaddy site. You want some old wood so bad it hurts.
@20- Cash is your only hope. It’s God’s way of rewarding hard work, good luck and/or rich parents. Life is wonderfully fair to guys with money. Cute girls have it SO damn easy when they’re young. Too easy. But as Joe Francis famously said, “Girls look really good from age eighteen to twenty-five.” He says, “It’s just a fact that that’s the best time for girls. Afterward, things start to happen — bad things.” But with sufficient cash, any halfway–hell QUARTER way–attractive guy can pull the hot young babes for YEARS to come!
Come on ladies it’s a new century, can’t you feel the empowerment. Where are all the sugar mommas?
Poor Jay… you sound so jealous darling…. all these rich ‘friends’ setting up pussy harems… and you just have to get some the regular way. Perhaps they can throw you some leftovers… just the Sugar Babies with sugar crabs and sugar herpes.
Sugar Crabs? Isn’t that a local C’Ville specialty? Jealous? No way, I’m a quick study. And I’m not too proud to eat five star leftovers now and then.
@23: Um, no I wanted rich wood, not old wood.
@25: He’s got two cuties in his harem right now. Not a bad start.
You are jealous…it’s obvious. … detailed posts with drool on.
@27 I was unaware that young rich wood would even need a site like that. Don’t they just go to clubs and buy drinks for everyone? I seen it done enough times to know how well it works. Hell, I thought they was the real reason behind bottle service in the first place
@24: Dude, chill. Felicia Rogan doesn’t read this blog.
@29: Yeah, sure but sometimes rich dudes want smart ladies, not the regular old hang-out-in-the-club bimbos
Hey Thor, I’m surprised you didn’t make this guy’s picture bigger and find his myspace. How are we supposed to mock him?
@29- Paying for bottle service just makes you an ass. (Or a wealthy Arab–I think there’s a difference.) You want to buy some class ass ’stead of be an ass ya gotta pony up for the AMG.
@ Flooze- lighten up. And get a boob job!
@31 I would have thought you won’t have been the last people to make light of the hang-out-in-the-club bimbos. Don’t they help pay your salary
@33 why would paying for something you can easily afford and meet girls with make you an ass?
It’s a free county and shouldn’t I be able to spend the money any way I want, as long as I don’t hurt anyone. The next thing you tell me is to not tip my bartender too much?
Hey Jay I found your craiglist posting
@35: Fuck no, those bitches don’t tip shit.
@36 but if they didn’t exist wouldn’t the whole bar eco-system break down?
@36- Ha ha, that dude’s in CLEVELAND. They don’t even have flush toilets in Cleveland.
@37: Bimbos are not the only customers in a bar dude. Where do you hang out?
But with sufficient cash, any halfway–hell QUARTER way–attractive guy can pull the hot young babes for YEARS to come!
hmm, is 15 percent attractive enough?
/stops reading the net and gets back to work…
@21 Danville? Virginia? Really?
bar eco-system
I like the idea of there being an entire bar ecosystem. That’s sort of awesome, in its way.
I get to be the rainforest
/no, I don’t know what that means either
@37 What’s wrong with you. I’m talking about the meat/meet market club eco-system- without some bimbos a club will soon be a sausage fest- that might work for sports or gay bar but not a club that needs breeders cash.
Bottle service clubs won’t long survive without a steady stream of the bimbos
This thread is so bizarre - it’s sort of reminding me of the airplane movies. it’s like, waaa? pedophiles -boobs - cleveland toilets….maybe i’ve had too much sun.
@35- You’ve obviously never been to Cafe Milano in Georgetown. Yes, it’s a free country and you are welcome to spend $600 for $50 bottles of champagne. But you don’t get it. Paying for something you can easily afford and meet girls with doesn’t MAKE these guys asses. They just ARE. It seems to go with the territory. Especially in DC. And quite frankly, a lot of the women who hit that bait aren’t very interesting.
But Shenzy’s kidding aside, I know some incredibly hot women who have either responded to crazy craigslist ads… or posted one. There’s a drop-dead gorgeous Chinese girl in our office in Chicago… under 30, international graduate degrees in math and finance before she was 25, highly paid professional, great fun to talk to. Guys swarm every time she goes out. But she gets her guys off craigslist. She tells me, “It’s quicker.” She’s busy. She’s hot. She’s horny. So she saves time by using craigslist whenever the urge strikes. Which is apparently often.
So before you make fun of sugar daddys and bizarre online postings you might want to give it a try. You might be amazed at what you get. I’m a big believer in doing whatever the hell you want to do so long as no one gets hurt. Which probaby doesn’t apply to the creepy looking guy this post is about. But it probably applies to you and Flooze. Although Floozy is suspiciously familiar with Sugar Crabs…
@44: I think you’re confusing clubs with bars. All Clubs are meat markets. Not all Bars are meat markets.
@41 No, Danville CA, not VA. Can’t spit there without gobbing on a rich, tan, fit old ex-CEO type guy.
246: I’ll go to Café Milano with you, Jay Jay.
But for realsy, Craigslist is creepy. You can get all the ass you need from Myspace.
@49- U R insufficiently Bimbo-ish. They won’t let you in Milano. On second thought, get Aimless to take you there. The gave her a lifetime Bimbo-exemption pass. The owners love her. She never puts out, but she’s got that big “you’re almost home” smile that keeps the asses ever hopeful. $600 bottles fly off the shelves…
Get her to take you. Wall-to-wall rich asses, but it probably beats the wine from the Lucky 7.
Mayspace never seemed to work out for me. Also, I though that’s what this site here is for….
@49- Ass from MySpace. Add me! Add me! Oh, baby Add me hard! Yesss! Yesss! Oh baby thanks for the add. Was it as good for you as it was for me?
@46 I have been to the Cafe Milano and it was all about the euro trash/arabs, way before bottle service. It’s a poor example to make your point. You must not have been to any other the bottle service place, Vinyl in Denver, ghostbar in Vegas, Buddha Bar in NYC just to name a few.
@47 i don’t think we disagree on that point and I’m in not confused about clubs and bars (which each have seperate eco systems)- my point was that in certain bars the non tipping bimbo is part of the eco system that brings in the rich young wood that you are looking for. Take away the bimbos (who are in many case not bimbos) and you won’t make as much in tips from the guys that come to meet/meat them.
I guess it comes down to what you think OXO is. I think of it as a club (after food service ends) and not just a bar- if anything more so after S&M night. Perhaps you could state that OXO is bimbo free?
Oh, we get some bimbos but not enough for their dudes to be the main source of my tips. My $$ comes from friends and regulars. Like Jay.
@34 Jay… why would I spoil the best rack in Cville?
What is “bottle service?”
/hopelessly clueless
@54- Hmmm, YOU handed me that cash I tucked in your bra. I think that makes you an epiphyte. (Just doing my part here to raise the level of erudition with an obscure botanical reference.)
The title of this post is wrong in so many ways.
You’re an air plant.
@56 Smiley… it means you purchase the whole bottle instead of individual measures or glasses. Then a bunch of club girls will swarm you to help you drink it, thereby making you look like a really awesome and popular person, and supposedly increasing your chances of getting laid.
@54 I would never say the ONLY source of your income- my point about an eco system is that every creature has a part. Sure most of your money comes from regulars but the bimbo chasers add to the bottom line. if you could do bottle service the ratio would start to move in their favor- as long the bimbo numbers increased as well.
You could make the valid point that cville bars are more bimbo free than larger metro area- which is where you would find more young rich wood to begin with. Which is why your sugar daddies don’t live here to begin with. more bimbos more sugar daddies
I take back my statement regarding the awesomeness of the bar ecosystem.
@62 damn, I was so looking forward to your approval
@61: Yes, ok. Canw e drop it already Max Bacon? Oops, I meant Mr. Roboto?
@64 really isn’t that sweet- debating the silliness of bottle service economics is that distressing?
Sorry to divert subvert the horrible tale of a poor young girl who met a terrible man in to something silly and friviolous. The internets are for serius bizness
No I was just agreeing with ya so we could go back to talking about how to get ass off of Myspace.
I though we agreed that that doesn’t work….
Not for you maybe.
@66 the thread all yours- I don’t have Tom as a friend and the only ass I get on the internets is what I get called for arguing with you
How much ass do you want? ass
Sorry… got some extra ass in there by mistake. Ironic but true.
@ 68 Indeed, not for me. I was hoping that’s how everybody feels about it…
Where is Uva LaGrape? I said ASS and MYSPACE dammit. Nothin’.
Shen… do you think UvaLaG and BYo are holed up in the Super8 Motel on 29N?
@74 And foresake the velvet closet? Nev-ah!
He doesn’t have a myspace and I imagine his facebook page got deleted/taken offline.
Ahhhh - so glad to be off the market.
Its surprising how we are all still shocked by the so called internets. We should all think of the weirdest sh*t possible and then try to find a website that supports/connects people to that shiznaz. I will start….people turned on by wooden dolls. (what!? There is a wooden figurine on my desk…figure its best to go with whats local).
Going back to the sugar daddy website, its obvious there must be a class system in sugar daddy land. Sugar Daddyism (art of being a Sugar Daddy) began hundreds of years ago, and underprivelaged well endowed women have been taking advantage of it ever since. The pro’s probably scoff at a site like this where the amateurs and noobs of the sugar baby squad come to play. I wouldnt be surprised if there are women in places like Monaco, St. Tropez who don’t own ONE dam thing, they just live on what others give them. The idea that a social network can unify the losers of the Sugar Daddy clan with the noobs of the Sugar Baby squad is pretty uplifting no?
In a dubya voice “I mean, this is America, we all deserve it”.
The Seeking Arrangement (arraignment?)people also have Seeking Millionaires & Seeking Fantasy sites. Fancy.
Um, underprivileged not very-well endowed women can get Sugar Daddies too. Thanks.
I think sugar babies are mostly underprivileged. As for the not-very well endowed…I think thats just part of the game when you play with viagra-fueled older men who play to the typical sugar daddy stereotype.
Sugar babies rip my fillings out.
you rip my fillings out.
someone else has my camera (without permission).
not nice.
If you buy a drink for a girl, does that mean you’re trying to make a sugar baby?
no, I think buying a drink for a girl is a polite gesture based on dating etiquette many many generations old. Buying a round for friends works the same way: “hey, I’m a nice and generous person!”
But paying for everything in a relationship, from drinks to shopping sprees to meals, is a little suspicious and creates/reinforces an inequality of power that I wouldn’t be comfortable with on either side.
lots of guys seem to think that buying a girl’s drinks is like buying an all access ticket on the trouser smile express.
it is hilarious to watch.
Does it really matter what they think?
“the trouser smile express”, eh?
parlie- you have a way with words.
/not sure exactly what way…
@87 a fool and his money are soon parted.
@88 i learned to read from instructions on chinese toy boxes.
Good god! I just looked at this site! I am so quiting my job and gettin a Sugar Daddy! The story is sad.
But the web site is hilarious!
@88 i learned to read from instructions on chinese toy boxes
I have chosen to interpret this remark in the most infelicitous manner possible. For shame, good sir. For shame.
here, i’ll read them to you:

@85 i would be entirely comfortable with it.
Me too!

Sorry for the lateness. Exams.
1. MySpace is the bomb place for bomb-ass pussy. But the Beautiful Mind theory applies: don’t go for the blonde. Translation: if all the men would stop trying so hard to fuck Shen, then all the men would be less frustrated. Fuck Shen’s friends for once. No, better: fuck the group of women staring haterade toward Shen and her friends from across the room. But don’t wait till the end of the night. Show interest as soon as you enter the space.
2. “Wanna fuck” is never a good first message. She wants to fuck as much as you, but she needs to feel comfortable with you. However she defines comfort–whether it be meeting your mom or not even knowing your name so that she doesn’t have to deal with you after she uses your bone for her ritual.
3. Facebook is better than Myspace. There you get the status fuck of exclusivity. Translation: women are more comfortable fucking someone they know are part of their in-group, be it “UVA Class of ‘09″ , “Orange High School Alum” or “GE Fanuc”. Some part of my brain says, “at least if he’s a UVA student they’ll be able to track him down if he guts me.” As opposed to the random bar stranger. Again…comfort level. Knowing something about the future lover beforehand.
4. Shen is very nice to call her alcoholic patrons “friends and regulars.”
5. Men who have a fetish for girl-like women prefer smaller breasts.
6. C-ville bimbos don’t hunt in bars. That’s what the Charlottesville Sports and Social Club is for. That’s also what Charlottesville Young Professionals is for.
7. Sugar is white. You’re all racists.
@99- Grapey: Fetish schmetish. It’s the budding boob & ass drop effect. Most men are attracted to girl-like women with Lara Croft breasts. It’s all about developmental psychology.
When pubescent boys first take not of girls in a sexual way the girls the associate with are too young to have had their asses drop yet. (The female ass typically starts to drop at about 19.) And the boobies are just beginning to sprout. If a little bit of boob is suddenly very interesting, the adolescent male mind quickly leaps to the assumption that MORE boob is MORE interesting. The whiplash effect that a skinny girl with a perky ass and ridiculously oversized, gravity-defying boobs has on men of every age is all about residual adolescent male sexual fixations.
Wanna buy some anti-ass-drop cream? Check your spam for the link to my website.
pop developmental psychology, eh? whatevuh.
Translation: men often like to give their opinions the weight of pseudoscience to make their rambling thoughtfarts sound like fact.
Scientific Fact: women don’t bother to try to give their absurd opinions a veneer of factual credibility.
Sugar is white. You’re all racists.
I believe the Rolling Stones would beg to differ…
I love LaGrape’s little cultural blurbs
Fuck Shen’s friends for once
Gladly.
/shen’s friends are all hawwwt
@105- Hey, fuck ‘em all! At the same time. In your dreams. (Just think of Shen & her friends instead of minks before you tuck into your burrito at bedtime, then close your eyes and let it happen.)
Jay! Don’t encourage him!
enjoy it now, Shen. Plainness is just around the corner. You too will engirthen our ranks. Will you join in our crusade? Will you be strong and stand with me? Beyond age 28 is there a world you long to see? Then join in the fight that will give uggos rights to be free!
