The Short Version: Contrary to popular belief, many sugar relationships are rooted in mutual trust and understanding. Private Sugar Club is a secure platform for aspiring sugar babies to create exclusive content and connect with sugar daddies. We talked to Emily May, a representative from Private Sugar Club, about how Private Sugar Club makes sugar relationships safe, respectful, and empowering.
You’re in a romantic restaurant when a couple catches your eye: A young woman in her 20s, dressed to the nines, her sparkling earrings shouting “LOOK AT ME!” to the rest of the room. Across from her is a much older man, an expensive watch on his wrist. Judging by their body language, these fancy folks are not father and daughter.
Ultimately, it’s the authoritative way the man addresses the woman and her half-hearted responses that give it away. You’ve just seen a date between a sugar baby and her sugar daddy.
Is this a cliché version of events? Of course. Public perception of sugar babies has been warped by unflattering stereotypes.
According to Emily May, a representative from sugar dating website Private Sugar Club, a healthy sugar relationship is based on clear boundaries and mutual respect. “Private Sugar Club was created to offer a safe, respectful space for sugar dating,” she told us.
Private Sugar Club makes the sugar baby role as empowering as possible by emphasizing positivity and safety. On the website, you can create a profile, upload exclusive content, and match with a like-minded sugar daddy.
“We focus on privacy, genuine connections, and giving sugar babies the best possible chance of earning some extra money,” Emily said.
The role of a sugar baby brings to mind sweetness, innocence, youth, naivety — not power.
Private Sugar Club says otherwise.
“Sugar babies add value and care to the lives of their sugar daddies, [and are] romanced and financed in return,” according to Private Sugar Club’s website.
To be a successful sugar baby, you have to understand the needs and desires of your sugar daddy. Sugar babies can be social chameleons. If your sugar daddy wants a lively and entertaining dinner partner, then you let your vibrant personality shine. If he wants someone to call when he’s lonely, you can be a reliable, reassuring presence.
Answering these needs doesn’t make you subservient, but proficient — even powerful. And Private Sugar Club acknowledges this by giving its users financial freedom.
“One thing that sets us apart is how we do not take any fees from our sugar babies,” Emily told us. “Whatever our sugar babies make is entirely theirs.”
Apart from a three-month $9.99 subscription fee, sugar babies only have to worry about making money, not spending it… until they make enough to spend it on something fun, that is.
According to Emily, giving sugar babies control of their earnings is the key to making the delicate sugar dating system work.
“We believe this helps to keep the community motivated and thriving,” she explained. After all, transactional relationships usually come with blatant power dynamics. Giving sugar babies more control over their finances helps level the playing field.
Sugar babies can also choose their visibility levels on the platform. Some sugar babies have no problem meeting up with a sugar daddy in real life, but others may prefer to keep a low profile — or even stay anonymous. Each avenue is possible (and potentially lucrative) on Private Sugar Club.
“The content you upload on our platform is entirely up to the user,” Emily emphasized. “Sugar babies can remain completely anonymous and have no obligation to show their face or any particular part of their body.” As long as photos adhere to the website’s terms and conditions, you can share as much or as little skin as you want.
Plus, if you communicate via Private Sugar Club, you don’t have to worry about getting ripped off by a sugar date.
“We offer a paid messaging feature where sugar daddies must pay the sugar baby to unlock messaging with them,” Emily said. “This is used to promote genuine connections, as only seriously interested sugar daddies will be willing to reach out.”
Does sugar dating involve sex? Is it a form of infidelity? Are the connections shallow or deep? Since the definition of sugar dating is so vague, most people create their own rules. This can be liberating for some sugar couples, but dangerous for others.
The rules are clearer at Private Sugar Club. Sugar babies have more control over their money and images, which makes sugar dating an all-around safer experience.
Private Sugar Club verifies its users from the very beginning. No more scrolling through dubious Craigslist ads!
“Our verification process is detailed,” Emily assured us. “Users provide valid IDs alongside a selfie verification.” They added, “We’re constantly upgrading our verification system, making it more rigorous whilst still keeping it user friendly.”
Don’t feel pressured to take your sugar relationship offline if you don’t feel comfortable. Emily made it clear that all sugar relationships, whether they’re romantic or purely transactional, are safer when conducted via Private Sugar Club’s website. “We always emphasize only interacting with sugar daddies through our platform,” she told us. “Using our platform, sugar babies can securely receive payments without exchanging financial information with a stranger.”
If you decide to meet up with your sugar date, you can refer to Private Sugar Club’s wealth of safety tips and advice. “In our blog we have a number of dedicated articles [about staying] safe while interacting with sugar daddies in the outside world,” Emily told us. Sugar babies can learn how to avoid sugar daddy or momma scams, how to set clear boundaries, and how to keep their finances safe.
The key to a well-balanced sugar relationship is clear communication and mutual expectations. The sugar baby needs to understand the sugar daddy’s boundaries, and vice versa. If you and your sugar date can’t agree on how often you should talk or how much personal information you should exchange, then you probably aren’t a good match.
“Our goal is to keep users safe whilst on our platform, so we like to give them the freedom to interact and express themselves as they see fit,” Emily emphasized.
Private Sugar Club ultimately recommends anonymity for its sugar babies and daddies alike. “We aim to protect our users against any backlash by keeping them anonymous. We always advise them to use aliases, and there are no obligations to show their face,”said the team.
Discretion is important in sugar dating because not everyone understands a sugar relationship’s complicated dynamics.
“Our goal is to create a welcoming environment for new users to learn and confidently navigate sugar dating,” Emily told us.
Emphasis on “learn,” as sugar dating is rife with misconceptions. It’s important for prospective sugar daters to understand fact from fiction before they embark on the mutually beneficial sugar relationship.
“It’s a misconception that a profile with zero effort will receive loads of results,” Emily told us. No, being a sugar baby isn’t as simple as uploading a few naughty selfies and flirty texts.
“Some sugar babies believe it takes zero work to meet a sugar daddy and make thousands of dollars a month,” Emily said. “However, we know it takes patience, good communication, and putting your best foot forward.” After all, many sugar daddies are looking for more than arm candy.
“It’s crucial to make a complete and engaging profile,” Emily advised. Some sugar daddies want to find a young person with worldly ambitions or even an impressive résumé. “Contrary to regular dating, sugar daddies will often look at profiles with a lot more scrutiny as they intend to part with money.”
If you struggle to overcome your own misgivings about sugar dating, you can join online groups to learn more about how it works. Knowledge is power. “We encourage users to form communities on Quora, Reddit, and customer support so they always feel heard,” Emily said.
All it takes is a quick scroll through Private Sugar Club’s website to bust yet another misconception: No, sugar babies aren’t spoiled airheads who take advantage of men for money. “Sugar babies from all walks of life get the opportunity to engage with sugar daddies and give them a worthwhile experience,” Emily told us.
In fact, some sugar daters plan on using the money for more practical purposes. “We noticed that the proportion of college students/higher education students have increased over the years,” Emily pointed out. “We put this down to the pressure of tuition fees and the cost of living.”
Regardless of the reason, as long as each person is on the same page, there’s no reason why sugar daters can’t enjoy a mutually satisfying relationship.
