Rent-Boys, Barflies, and Kept Men: Men Involved in Sex with Men for Compensation in Prague

Timothy M. Hall

University of California, USA, mccajor{at}earthlink.net

Since the Velvet Revolution in 1989, the Czech Republic (epitomized for westerners by Prague) has acquired a reputation for sexual liberalism and has become a major destination for tourists from developed countries seeking sexual opportunities. Little attention from policy or social theory perspectives has focused on Czech males involved in commercial sex. Drawing on the author's larger ethnographic project on gay identities in Prague, this article looks at the experiences of gayidentified men in Prague involved in homosexual commercial sex and some of the problems they face, and considers the relationship of compensated sex to other aspects of local gay scenes.

Key Words: commercial sex • Czech • homosexuality • male prostitution
