  • Gender Differences in Consumers of Transgender Porn and Attitudes Toward Transgender Persons

    Open Access•Chris Wakefield, Tessa Schwartz•ARTICLE•Sexuality & Culture•2026

  • Equal Opportunity Disadvantage or Levels of Harm

    Open Access•Chris Wakefield, Ilan H Meyer et al.•ARTICLE•Behavioral Sciences & the Law•2026

    Collateral consequences of the sex offender registry in the United States have been documented for decades, but few studies have examined whether demographic or structural conditions affect the frequency or severity of collateral consequences on sex offenders. We report on a nationwide survey of cisgender men required to register on a sex offense registry. We describe the impact of collateral consequences of sex offender management in key areas, …

  • How crime-based legal regimes shape sexual harm

    Open Access•Barbara G Brents, G Abel et al.•ARTICLE•The British Journal of Criminology•2026•References: 59

    Crime-based and carceral legal regimes shape sexual harm by structuring how consent is negotiated, enforced and recognized. Using a social harm framework, this study examines sex work not as an exceptional case but as a critical site for analysing how crime-based governance operates through the interaction of sex work law and sexual violence law to structure vulnerability and access to justice. Drawing on survey data from 483 sex workers and form…

  • Sex workers’ experiences of criminal justice in the United Kingdom

    Open Access•Teela Sanders, Jane Scoular et al.•ARTICLE•Criminology & Criminal Justice•2025•References: 12

Yet, sex workers often have negative perceptions and experiences of the criminal justice systems that should exist to help protect and deliver justice to all victims/survivors. The following analyses come from a mixed-methods, cross-national study exploring sexual violations …

  • Toward a Typology of the Client

    Chris Wakefield•ARTICLE•The Journal of Sex Research•2024•Cited by: 1•References: 5

    Previous research on male clients of sex workers has emphasized the diversity of purchasing behaviors; however, we know little about how to organize or categorize this diversity quantitatively. I employed latent class analysis with survey data from cisgender male clients of primarily cisgender female sex workers in the United States to organize client consumption patterns by the type of venue used to contact sex workers and the frequency of using…

  • Paying for Sex in a Digital Age

    Teela Sanders, Barbara G Brents et al.•BOOK•Paying for Sex in a Digital Age•2020

    Providing one of the first comprehensive, cross-cultural examinations of the dynamic market for sexual services, this book presents an evidence-based look at the multiple factors related to purchasing patterns and demand among clients who have used the internet. The data is drawn from two large surveys of sex workers’ clients in the US and UK. The book presents descriptive baseline data on client engagement with online platforms, demographics and…
