论文摘要

性工作或交换性服务以货币或商品的交换是无处不在的时代和文化。但是,出售性行为的做法通常由于污名和性工作的不同法律地位而被隐藏。性工作者用来宣传服务的在线平台已成为研究在很大程度上隐藏的市场的越来越重要的手段。尽管先前的文献主要从公共卫生或政策的角度阐明了性工作(主要关注女性性工作者),但在线性工作中,很少有研究在经验上研究服务模式。这项研究通过使用来自英国最大的在线性服务网络的数据来调查在线商业性服务市场上的价格和受欢迎程度的决定因素,该平台是性工作者的行业标准。尽管这些影响的大小在各个性别之间有所不同,但所提供的国籍,年龄和服务被证明是性别工作率和受欢迎程度的主要驱动力。

Sex work, or the exchange of sexual services for money or goods, is ubiquitous across eras and cultures. However, the practice of selling sex is often hidden due to stigma and the varying legal status of sex work. Online platforms that sex workers use to advertise services have become an increasingly important means of studying a market that is largely hidden. Although prior literature has primarily shed light on sex work from a public health or policy perspective (focusing largely on female sex workers), there are few studies that empirically research patterns of service provision in online sex work. This study investigated the determinants of pricing and popularity in the market for commercial sexual services online by using data from the largest UK network of online sexual services, a platform that is the industry-standard for sex workers. While the size of these influences varies across genders, nationality, age and the services provided are shown to be primary drivers of rates and popularity in sex work.
