Well, in a way it does. The use of Esquire both as a term for males of the lower gentry (with the subtext it gained as a term for young bachelors) and also for attorneys etc, which was a fairly typical career for the sons of the wealthy, meant that the term took on wealthy, playboy aspects. Hence Esquire for a men's mag.
