rileydaniels 1901 Report post Posted April 30, 2010 In both studies, the primary reason participants gave for the attractiveness of the sex trade was financial. But to Ada Sinacore, an associate professor of counselling psychology at McGill University, the issue is much more complex than students wanting to make money. At least they are able to start recongnizing the complexcity of being a sex worker. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VedaSloan 119179 Report post Posted May 2, 2010 Erin - can you post the link? Can I get an autographed copy. I don't think it's online. And I haven't managed to actually find it in the paper version either. I was told it would be out in April, but I haven't seen it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where I'm concern it cuts both ways. :wink: John's Voice: About the Research Project This research was designed in such a way that the results could be used to highlight the voices, experiences, issues and concerns of sex buyers. The topics that were covered and the questions that were asked were developed so that the data collected may be used to speak directly to current debates concerning the social, legal, political and health issues relating to the buying and selling of sex in Canada. One of our goals was to collect information that could be used to enlighten current policies, practices and understandings pertaining to prostitution by including one of the most valuable voices on issues surrounding commercial sex in Canada - those of clients! http://24.85.225.7/johnsvoice/docs/JOHNS_VOICE_GENERAL_RESULTS_EXECUTIVE_SUMMARY_FINAL_DIST.pdf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
