The Male Sex Worker and His Needs in Relation to a Health and Social Service
Hykyšova, Michaela ; Hradcová, Dana (advisor) ; Bosá, Monika (referee)

(henceforth R-R) to extend its services to include this group. R-R, which has been actively involved in providing health and social assistance to female sex workers since 1992, faces distinctive challenges in accommodating male sex workers.

The limited understanding of this new group contributes to a lack of interest among potential male clients, resulting in a significantly slow increase in new user numbers.

The research has shown that there are significant differences between the two republics.

Sex as a lucrative job
DUCHÁČOVÁ, Šárka
Today, the life of a university student has long been associated with shared houses, two-minute noodles and second-hand clothes. But it seems there's now a new trend. A new study has shown that many students prefer to work as a luxury prostitute or go-go dancer instead of the more traditional waitressing or bar work. There has been an increase in the number of young people turning to the sex industry. Male and female university students have used sex as a source of income during their studies, either through erotic photography, pornography, or as escorts.
