"sexist drivel" indeed. Flash:
a) Paris Hilton is already rich, so she's unlikely to be for sale. On the other hand, she does have the reputation as a player, so if your approach amuses her, who knows what might happen.
b) Jeff Goldblum doesn't look that good in this shot, but the "sexist drivel" is that if a guy is rich, it does not matter what he looks like, or even has a personality. If you don't grasp this nuance, try asking Paris Hilton. She is known to be quite blunt about such topics, and I suspect she is something of an expert.
c) the squeaky clean Apple image: when MONEY is the subject, I bet they use the same nasty words that everyone else does
d) Craigslist: last I was there, it still looked like a target-rich environment for finding "singles" or whatever. So the porn and the sex-for-money is just TWO clicks away rather than one.
e) in general, sex is probably the best topic if you are looking for examples of cultural double-standards. And I will continue to be a student of same, as long as I can negotiate the internet by using only one hand.
