A review of male to male commercial sex encounters

Abstract

This paper provides a comprehensive review of the scientific literature on male sex workers. The review includes developing a model which can be used to research and explain the factors influencing safe sex outcomes in male- to-male sex work. A review of current research knowledge on the socio- demographic context, the sex work context, the personal internal mediating context, the sex worker/client interaction context, and the structure context is presented, and suggestions to guide future research on male sex work outlined.
