Document Summary
Monday, april 16, 2018 psych 2075 chapter 17 notes on sex for sale the exchange of sexual gratification for money. Looking at two ways in which ex can be bought and sold: Sex workers are individuals that work as prostitutes, escorts, erotic dancers, phone sex workers, in non-therapeutic massage parlours and as pornographic models and actors. What they have in common is they sell a service to satisfy a sexual fantasy, produce sexual excitement or arousal and/or provide sexual satisfaction to the customer. They use term sex worker because it focuses on the activity and does not imply that a person"s identity is determined by the activities they engage in. Commercial sex workers who engage in prostitution receive money, material gifts or some other form of payment (like drugs) for engaging in partnered sexual activities or interactions. But some dating and living arrangements and long-term relationships including certain marriages also fall in this category.
