description | The development of the new information and communication technologies has profoundly modified the landscape of prostitution in recent years, in particular by favoring the growth of escort services, a form of prostitution which combines sexual and companionship services. A qualitative survey by semi-structured interviews with subjects offering or demanding companionship or sexual services via the Internet was conducted in order to understand the the meaning attributed to these paid relations by escorts and clients. Three conceptions of escorting emerge from the analysis of clients and escorts’ discourse: escorting represented as a service relationship, escorting represented as a form of domination, and escorting represented as a particular type of short-term affective and sexual relationship. |
