Data Disaggregation Reveals Disproportionate Levels of Covid-19 Risk Among Filipinxs in the USA
The Rise of Bisexuality
Recognizing that social forces shape sexual behavior and sexual identities, we examined whether the recent liberalization in attitudes toward same-sex relationships has been accompanied by changes in sexual orientation as indicated by sexual behavior and sexual orientation identity. Using nationally representative data from the General Social Survey (n = 34,524), we compared reported patterns of sexual behavior of respondents from 1989 through 20…
Is Sex Cam Use a Substitute for “Real Sex?” Attitudes and Experiences of Consumers Using Adult Cam Platforms
Adult webcam sites with live performers who provide viewer interactive experiences are a rapidly increasing form of sexual entertainment or "sextech." The opportunity to engage with performers during synchronous contact without health risks represents a novel form of transactional sex. This study sought to understand viewer preferences in performers, and how viewers perceive webcam use is affecting their sex lives and their mood. Participants (N …
Perceptions of provider power among sex buyers
This manuscript provides a framework for understanding the relative power of male customers in heterosexual prostitution exchanges. Drawing on insights from Giddens' structuration theory, as well as basic principles of social exchange theory, we describe how personal qualities, relationship characteristics, and larger structural inequalities intersect to affect power relationships between buyers and providers. Consistent with recent scholarship t…
Nonsuicidal Self-Injury Among a Representative Sample of US Adolescents, 2015
Objectives. To provide prevalence estimates of adolescent nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) based on large, representative, nonclinical samples of high-school students, and to explore gender differences in health risks associated with NSSI. Methods. We used 2015 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System data to estimate the prevalence of self-injury and variables potentially associated with self-injury for hi…

A New Standard of Sexual Behavior? Are Claims Associated With the “Hookup Culture” Supported by General Social Survey Data
Popular media have described intimate relationships among contemporary college students as dominated by a pervasive sexual "hookup culture," implying that students are involved in frequent sexual encounters pursued by both participants without the expectation of a continuing relationship. The hookup culture has been described as "a nationwide phenomenon that has largely replaced traditional dating on college campuses" (Bogle, 2008 , p. 5). We tes…
Prostitution, Sex Work, and Violence
This article highlights notable contributions of 4 studies on sex work in Cambodia. By addressing different issues and varieties of sex work, they demonstrate how sex work is shaped by global and regional sociocultural contexts. The studies collectively provide an opportunity to draw larger lessons about prostitution and sex work, suggesting that prostitution and sex work (a) include a wide range of activities; (b) are associated with violence ag…
Discomfort With Homosexuality
This study describes a creative and psychometrically sound method that allows researchers to measure homonegativity at a lower threshold than existing measures and to differentiate between homonegativity toward gay men and lesbians. Four hundred and thirty-one undergraduate students at a Western comprehensive university were asked to respond to a series of vignettes describing situations in which heterosexuals sometimes experience discomfort in t…
Boys Doing Art
Though academic discourse on graffiti often laments the fact that it is treated as a crime, such arguments neglect how the outlaw status of graffiti has been integrally related to its allure and how it is understood and experienced by "writers" (the preferred term of graffiti artists). Participant observation and formal and informal interviews of members of a midstatus Portland, Oregon graffiti crew reveal how graffiti reflects a particular versi…
The Hobbyist and the Girlfriend Experience
This study provides descriptive information about the background characteristics, sexual preferences, attitudes, and motives of men (N = 584) who locate and contract with female Internet Sexual Service Providers (ISSP) for paid sex acts through a prostitute review site on the Web. The questionnaire-based findings showed these men preferred the "girlfriend experience" or GFE over all other personal qualities and behaviors. The study contributes to…
Female Prostitution, Customers, and Violence
Through a critical review of existing research, this article argues that (a) customers have been excluded from many debates surrounding prostitution, and including them will create a more robust dialogue regarding prostitution; (b) though prostitution seeking is often treated as a natural part of masculine sexual experience, most men do not pursue prostitutes, and very few are regular users; (c) many commonsense understandings of men’s motivation…
Male Customers of Prostituted Women
This study explores the underlyingstructure of the perceptions of 1,342 men arrested for tryingto hire a prostituted woman on the street. The analysis identified eight structural dimensions that accounted for 47% of the explained variance. Three factors contained items reflectingpatriarchal views of women and perceived entitlement to power and control, which are issues that could lead men to exhibit violence. Findings suggest that lower levels of…
Predictors of Rape Myth Acceptance Among Male Clients of Female Street Prostitutes
Although female street prostitutes are frequent victims of violence, there has been little research on their male clients. This study explores the level of “rape myth acceptance” and the predictors of rape myth acceptance among 1,286 men arrested for trying to hire street prostitutes in San Francisco (n = 950), Las Vegas (n = 254), and Portland, Oregon (n = 82). Rape myths are attitudes believed to support sexual violence against women. Questionn…
Prostitution and fellatio
Questionnaires gathered from men arrested while trying to hire female prostitutes in three Western cities indicate that the desire for fellatio is an important reason clients seek female prostitutes. Respondents were more likely to select fellatio than any other practice when asked which sexual practices they (a) had ever experienced with a prostitute (81% in comparison to 55% for vaginal sex; N = 995), (b) usually experienced with a prostitute (…
Holding Men Accountable for Prostitution
The Sexual Exploitation Education Project (SEEP) of Portland, Oregon, is committed to making men more accountable for the persistence of prostitution by focusing attention on the customers who solicit sex from prostituted women. Under a cooperative agreement with the district court, men who are convicted of soliciting prostitution are required to participate in a weekend workshop conducted by SEEP, in which they are educated about the realities o…
The Lingering Presence of Medical Definitions Among Women Committed to Natural Childbirth
The controversies that surround childbirth in the United States reflect competing understandings and competing definitions of situations. This article explores episodes in which dominant medical understandings of childbirth were communicated to women who sought to resist them during pregnancy, labor, and the first several weeks post-partum. Thirty-one women were interviewed three times each, twice before and once after delivery, although the focu…
Prevalence of Prior Adult Sexual Contact in a Sample of Adolescent Male Sex Offenders
The present study provides data on the prevalence of prior adult sexual contact among a sample of 47 adolescent male sex offenders and 109 male nonoffenders. Offenders (61.7%) reported a higher rate of sexual touching by an adult than did nonoffenders (19.3%)
Self-Report Versions of the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale
The Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale was administered to 180 undergraduates and 50 medical clinic patients to obtain normative data for this widely used instrument. These data should prove useful to clinicians who assess obsessive-compulsive symptomatology
