In the process of questioning my relationship to food and cooking as someone who was raised as a woman, I came to the realization that I cannot subvert the role of a woman cooking simply by saying that I am. The same is true for taking on the role of a sugar baby. I cannot claim to fool older men by playing a character that is almost as easy to embody as my natural personality. To fool is to be fooled in these contexts. I seek to truly subvert the role of a sugar baby and a woman in the kitchen by compiling recipes I receive from men on Seeking Arrangement, the most popular site for breeding sugar relationships.
Context: Generational economic tensions and gender relationships in new interpersonal online exchanges
Concept: The reversal of roles and the relocation of power in unbalanced gendered and generational transactions through the use of food.
