Subject: "dinner whore" from Urban Dictionary
To:


dinner whore

I propose this definition as a challenge to the first definition,
which, although substantially correct, is not entirely accurate. A
dinner whore is a woman who accepts high-priced dinner dates from
successful men with the knowledge that she has little, if any,
romantic or sexual interest in them. Nevertheless, the dinner whore
accepts these dates knowing full well that the invitation is motivated
exclusively by the man's interest in a romantic or sexual relationship
with her. The dinner whore is usually of upper middle-class birth,
although the genus has been known to comprise the occasional
middle-class aspirant. The dinner whore is almost always of average or
better aesthetic merits yet tends to regard herself as more attractive
than she actually is. She is rarely a knockout but is almost always
well manicured and has invested substantial time, money, and effort in
seeking to maximize what physical gifts she has been given. The dinner
whore is usually youthful (21-35) and is most active between ages 24
and 30. She dwells in all climates and locales but is most often found
in a metropolis, with most concentrated in or around New York City and
Los Angeles. She has fairly eclectic appetites but evinces a general
predisposition to doctors, lawyers, investment bankers, and other men
who are associated, however ambiguously, with the world of finance.
Although it is commonly assumed that the dinner whore's primary aim is
to obtain a high-priced dinner for nothing, this is but one element of
a larger and more sordid agenda, which is predicated chiefly on
general self-aggrandizement and ego innervation masked by the pretext
of romantic interest. In addition to the free dinner, the dinner whore
desires to be lavished with attention, even if it is from someone to
whom she is not attracted. To the dinner whore, any moneyed attention
is good attention. Further, the setting of an upscale restaurant
furnishes the dinner whore with a captive audience of other
socioeconomic elites, both men and women, who will see her receiving
this attention and, she hopes, think better of her for it. Contrary to
most assumptions, the dinner whore only rarely has sex with her prey.
Although she is clearly interested in a quid pro quo, the ideal
exchange is not sex in consideration of expensive dinners. Rather, she
is interested in trading the PROSPECT of sex, however illusory, not
only for the expensive dinners but also for the moneyed attention and
the increased social visibility of an upscale setting. * The dinner
whore usually leaves the game in her early 30s, by which time her
looks have begun to flag or, at least, be outshined by younger dinner
whores. At this time, the dinner whore usually leaves the game and
marries a short, balding Jewish man of significant although not
overwhelming means.

'I thought I had something going with that chick Kristin, but I
dropped $500 at Jean-Georges, and she didn't even give me head.
Fucking bitch. She might be just another dinner whore.'
