This article discusses the sexual script of Israeli sex industry consumers who self-identify as addicts. It argues that the ‘addict sexual script’ provides both an explanation for out of control sexual behaviour and a channel for expressing the individual client’s ‘right’ to be acknowledged for their suffering in the process of buying sex. Thus, the addict sexual script becomes a coping strategy that, while internalising sex consumption as socially deviant behaviour, also serves as a strategic practice for negotiating and challenging masculine hegemonic ideals. It concludes that the willingness to stigmatise and victimise themselves as disempowered individuals becomes a turning point, which, paradoxically, empowers sex consumers as actors in the framework of consumer capitalism.

本文讨论了以色列性行业消费者的性脚本，他们自认是上瘾者。它认为，“成瘾性脚本”既提供了对无法控制的性行为的解释，又提供了表达单个客户的“权利”的渠道，以表达他们在购买性过程中所遭受的痛苦的权利。因此，上瘾的性脚本成为一种应对策略，在将性消费内化为对社会有偏见的行为的同时，也充当了谈判和挑战男性霸权理想的战略实践。结论是，被剥夺权利的个人被污名化和受害的意愿成为一个转折点，这自相矛盾地是，在消费资本主义的框架内赋予性消费者以行为者的权利。
