Abstract

Previous research on commercial sex has described fluidity between different forms of relationships, whereby commercial sexual relationships can be both long-term and viewed as intimate from the buyer’s perspective. This article explores the construction of intimacy in long-term commercial relationships. More specifically, it examines the meaning of transactions in long-term paid sexual relationships in Sweden. Interviews were conducted with 23 Swedish men with experience purchasing sex as ‘regulars’. An inductive thematic analysis was conducted. Findings show that the emotional experience is a key focus for these men when they purchase sex. The emotions involved are not delimited in time and space but are experienced both within and outside of the actual sexual encounter. Such emotions can be understood as the very precondition for the experiences of intimacy, while at the same time they create difficulties for the men who purchase sex. Experiences of intimacy are experienced in the ambiguity between unbounded and bounded authenticity and by not drawing a clear line between emotional subjectivity and consumer subjectivity.

在瑞典建立长期商业关系中的亲密关系

摘要

先前关于商业性行为的研究描述了不同形式的关系之间的流动性,即商业性关系既可以是长期的,也可以从购买者的角度被视为亲密关系。本文探讨了长期商业关系中亲密关系的构建。更具体地说,它研究了瑞典长期有偿性关系中交易的含义。采访了 23 名有过性购买经验的瑞典男性作为“常客”。进行了归纳主题分析。调查结果表明,情感体验是这些男性购买性服务时的重点。所涉及的情绪不受时间和空间的限制,而是在实际性接触之内和之外体验到的。这种情绪可以被理解为亲密体验的前提条件,同时它们也给购买性行为的男性带来了困难。亲密体验是在无限和有限的真实性之间的模糊中体验的,并且在情感主体性和消费者主体性之间没有明确的界限。
