The male escort agencies are are thriving business. Irrespective whether the final outcome of the hire is sex, the woman still pays for the escorts time.
If this has never happened then why does the word 'gigolo' appear in dictionaries
gig·o·lo (jg-l, zhg-) n. pl. gig·o·los 1. A man who has a continuing sexual relationship with and receives financial support from a woman.
2. A man who is hired as an escort or a dancing partner for a woman.
[French, perhaps from gigolette, dancing girl, prostitute, from giguer, to dance, from gigue, fiddle, from Old French; see gigot.]
