Quote from this book "The advent of AIDS in the early 1980s found a scientific community sorely lacking in recent and reliable information about a number of the populations primarily affected, none more so than male sex workers, a group marginal not only to mainstream society, but to other marginal groups. The small literature that existed before the 1980s nevertheless paints a picture which incorporates: 'two compelling stereotypes: that of the straight hustler and that of the teenage runaway prostitute. These two portraits, often merged in a single, sorry account, dominate contemporary sociological descriptions and fuel popular and journalistic stereotypes.' (Davies and Simpson, 1990, p 109) " Opening paragraph: "Selling Sex in Cardiff and London" by Peter Davies and Rayah Feldman Secondhand booksellers |
