Inhalt
Often depicted as deviant or pathological by public health researchers, psychoanalysts, and sexologists, male-with-male sex and sex work is, in fact, an increasingly mainstream pursuit. Based on a qualitative investigation of the practices involved in male-with-male Internet escorting, »Touching Encounters« is the first book to explicitly address how masculinity and sexuality shape male commercial sex in this era of Internet communications. By looking closely at the sex and work of male escorts, Kevin Walby tries to reconcile the two extremes of m4m sex: the stereotypical idea of a quick cash transaction and the tendency toward friendship and mutuality. At once a revelation to the sociology of work and a much-needed critical engagement with queer theory, »Touching Encounters« responds to calls from across the social sciences to connect Foucault with sociologies of sex, sexuality, and intimacy.
