His homepage gives a clue to what is going on here.
First, the url is www.vincent-inc.com. Which means he is accustomed to branding and selling himself, so why not sell the sexuality of young women to bolster his own brand recognition?
Second, how many philosophers have an "In the Media" tab on their website? He clearly seems himself as an academic/media figure.
Third, his "In the media" page hosts a dizzyingly pretentious slew of male-modelling/glam shots of the good professor: http://www.vince-inc.com/vincent/?page_id=24
Conclusion: this guy is a rampant narcissist who sees himself and others as commodities to be bought, sold, and advertised.
Good thing he works in logic and epistemology...ethics are clearly not his strong suit.

Observations from an old cranky jerk who happens to be a professional philosopher. Occasionally philosophical, most often just vulgar. Sometimes focused on sober points of logic and issues in political theory, but more frequently fixed on nonsense. Bad metal bands, crappy guitarists, stupid lyrics, celebrities, pop "culture," telemarketers, irrationality, and other annoyances. Always misanthropic. Anti-religious. Not particularly amusing, either. Some might say insulting. Strange mail. Kook magnet. Doom. Comments from other cranky jerks, young and old.

Can you imagine one of your colleagues in photos like this? Ugh
Can you imagine Socrates in photos like these?
"Can you imagine Socrates in photos like these?"
Only like every night!
You mean this guy's not Socrates?
Can you imagine Socrates as a professional academic?
Socrates as professional academic:
Bad clothes. Check.
Smelly. Check.
Neglectful of family. Check.
Aimless wandering. Check.
Somewhat rude. Check.
Insists that all conversations revolve around his concerns. Check.
Struggles with sexual attraction to the young. Check.
Done.
