Craigslist: Great for Jobs...and Prostitution?!?

One day, instead of looking through job postings on craigslist, I decided to go to the homepage.  I heard craigslist had almost anything, so I wanted to check out more of what it offered.  To my amazement, there's straight up internet prostitution going down on the site.

I clicked on "adult gigs", I expected to see requests for video girls, models, and even porn stars.  And while there were some posts of that sort, what struck me was the amount of guys looking to be a sugar daddy.  Sugar daddy is the nice way to put it, though.  These dudes are straight up looking to pay for sex.

Looking for a white, latina female to come over ot my place.

I can host.
Please if you respond have some pictures so i can choose.
Busty ladies are definately welcomed.
This can be a regular meeting if all goes well.

Here's a common theme, exchanging "fun" for the "paying of some bills":

I am a 35 yr old gentleman looking to have some fun with a normal sane female.

prefer someone young (over 18 and under 30) white, asian or light skinned hispanic/black who just needs help with a few bill$

You can even cop a virgin:

$25,0000 for this vrigin ass (bk, ma)

how much u will to pay for this vrigin ASS, SERIOUS PEOPLE ONLY

AM FOR REAL.. LEAVE A MESSAGE PLZZZ PIC AND NUMBER
LOOKING FORWARD.. SEE U SOON

This is all extremely creepy.  Why not just use a normal dating site? If any type of investigative agency tried to set you up, you could get arrested for this kind of shit.  What's also disturbing is the sheer amount of these types of posts.  These posts obviously must get responses if there are so many new ones each day.  I feel like its just ordinary men with everyday, well-paying jobs that either don't know how to get pussy, or who want to cheat on their wives.  These men obviously have some kind of sense to have money to afford this kind of thing.
