â™›RahXephonâ™› 649 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 And also speculated as having sponsors but somehow it can't be revealed because they are "male"? Or any female idols in general who are either solo or in a group? -idgi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ari 12,218 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 because that means they're basically prostitutes? prostitutes are generally not looked upon kindly anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secre 1,557 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 What are sponsors? Prostitutes? I honestly don't know. If so what male K-pop idol has a sponsor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoonability 4,159 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 'Sponsor' means they exchange sexual favours for positions, money, etc. It's looked upon unfavourably for any gender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minime 1,128 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Because it means they are getting roles and opportunities that they shouldn't based on merit - depriving the people who should based on talent and hardwork? Also, sex work of any sort is never looked upon well - even 'gold-diggers' are hated, so outright 'hoes, sluts' etc. stand for terrible slurs?

chiirbii 4,760 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 'Sponsor' means they exchange sexual favours for positions, money, etc. It's looked upon unfavourably for any gender. And sponsor is usually linked to rich men, so there's the added 'gay for pay' bit when male idols are linked to sponsors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimchidiablo 6,189 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Doesn't sponsor give financial support in exchange to sexual favor right? It is same as prostitute tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
â™›RahXephonâ™› 649 Posted January 25, 2017 Author Share Posted January 25, 2017 Whoa I didn't know it's like that. I thought it's just like getting paid for advertising/promoting the sponsor's products etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
