This study estimated the additional protection against STDs offered to sex workers by giving them the option of using the female condom when clients refused to use a male condom.

- Description
- Author decribes the experiences of Dutch women who have paid for sexual intimacy with a gigolo. Author wants to contribute to the acknowledgement of the diversity in the sex industry and to raise the question why the gender variable is not taken seriously in current prostitution paradigms. Sex workers have various reasons for entering the trade, they even do not experience the work in the same way. Not all sex workers are women and not all customers are men. Author hopes do shed some light on different needs, desires and demands of clients of sex workers, especially when the tabes are turned and women, not men, are on the demand side.

- Description
- Paper with the result of an exploratory study on urban, middle-class women aged nineteen to forty-five in Nicosia, Cyprus. About half of them were involved in voluntary work or associations and groups that deal with 'women's and family issues'. Some of them have employed domestic workers from the Philippines and Sri Lanka to live in het house and either be responsible for housework, or look after their children and/or elderly. The feminist women in this study were further more tolerant of issues concerning homosexuality and sexual orientation and did not consider homosexuality as negative. This could not be said for the rest of the women. The author also pays attention to prostitution and the way women in Cyprus compare themselves with European, Russian and Asian women.

- Description
- The literature on sexual deviance has provided only limited insight into the world of the 'baby pro' -- the child prostitute. There is some historical documentation, but data on contemporary empirical observations is generally unavailable. Moreover, most studies have focused on teenagers rather than on children. During the course of the research, nine girls between the ages of 8 and 12 were encountered who admitted involvement in prostitution and/or pornography. They were not runaways. Rather, they had been introduced to their careers by relatives. Their initiation into sex seemed to motivated by fear of rejection, their drug involvement did not appear to be associated with their sexual activities, and they did not seem to be traumatized by their early association with sex.

- Description
- This study is based upon the assumption that prostitutes and vice officers each relate to their own elite publics, and the relationship between the prostitute and the vice officer is, in part, explained by the differential expectation these publics have of the incumbents of these two occupations. Specifically, this study is directed toward an examination of the scripted behavior of prostitutes and vice officers toward their differentiated publics as these two occupational groups cooperate to achieve their differing but interrelated goals.
