If men stopped simping the economy would collapse overnight.

Interesting, but not new. The expectation that there would be a load of young women to entertain and be entertained by was one of the perks of being a noble or "lady-in-waiting" in medieval times. Courts were packed with debutantes, whose perceived role was to learn and serve, but in among other things it was a party circuit for the noblemen, where the exact same type of behaviours went on as you describe - chivalry dictated that the interactions were supposed to be chaste, but hunting, drinking and dancing were part of the deal.

Of course, this was how most up and coming gentry girls secured noblemen husbands, but the strictly "hot girl in a party" setup was expected too, where fun was to be had.

Ultimately, where there are young rich men wanting to spend money, young hot women will be supplied to them.
