Virginia Sugar Daddy Paid For College, Gave Women Spankings

Henry Allen Fitzsimmons has some explaining to do. The 54-year-old restaurant owner reportedly paid college tuition and a $200 allowance per week to three young women who agreed to his “Spencer Scholarship Plan,” which required following a set of rules like telephoning him and not drinking alcohol. The crux of the plan? Fitzsimmons administered spankings to these women if they broke the rules.

The “Spencer Scholarship Plan” is, I’m assuming, based on “The Spencer Plan,” a domestic discipline arrangement allegedly created by someone named Dorothy Spencer in 1936 in which partners agree to spank each other for violating an agreed-upon set of rules. The partners can download contracts from “The Spencer Plan”‘s web site to formally agree to spanking discipline. Some kinky folks swear by Spencer spankings (but I suggest you research that NSFW topic another time).

Now, I love being spanked. Love it. If two people want to integrate “The Spencer Plan” into their relationship, God bless ‘em. But what makes Fitzsimmons icky is that he tied the disciplinary spankings to college tuition and an allowance, which is a form of control over the women. It’s not quite sex work. And it’s not quite discipline. It’s a blending of the two in which these women’s education and potential livelihood is extremely vulnerable.

According to the Chicago Sun-Times, six charges for assault and sexual battery were dropped against Fitzsimmons because the young women agreed to the spankings. However, Fitzsimmons still faces five felony abduction and object sexual penetration charges, certified by a judge, after the young women testified he held them against their will during the spankings (and allegedly penetrated them).

Sexual assault is not part of “The Spencer Plan,” dude.

Umm, okay.

"Penetrated" them with what?

These young women get some of my pity, but not all of it. They were prostituting themselves - they have sex with the older man and they get their tuition paid for and even an allowance. They may not have been walking on the street, but they were allowing themselves to be used. Grown women should know better, and might I say they're not representing the young women generation too well.

Wow - I really don't know what to say but this article makes these women sound pretty pathetic and desperate, though it would be sad if they really believed that was the ONLY way they could pay for their college education. ITA that it seems like little more than prostitution.

Is it bad that I'd consider it?

I didn't read anywhere that these women had sex for fiscal gain. I wouldn't doubt that the sugar daddy got his rocks off by administering them but from what I read they were given as punishment for breaking whatever rules were in place such as calling him and not drinking. Don't break the rules and you won't be spanked. The reason this is in the news is because he's being accused of going beyond spanking. If anyone here has put themselves through college without going deeply into debt, you have every reason to be proud but not everyone is able to do that. I'm not willig to call these girls whores.
