Do you think this...I don't want to say "masculinized" because women are capable of compartmentalizing too, but this disconnectedness towards sex and sexuality is something each individual achieves after working in the industry, or is it that the industry itself attracts men who have the ability to turn off their emotions when it comes to sex? I'm still trying to find the dividing line between individual reactions to sex-trade work and what seems to be consensus in the way male sex workers feel about themselves, their work, and their bodies.

Because, as you can probably understand, Fraser as a rentboy would be a fairly special case. While I can see him reducing sex to its necessary components and disconnecting from the physical act of sex (insert tab A into slot B, make the guy come, repeat) I can't believe he'd be able to dehumanize his clients or be entirely successful in "hardening" himself to the experience. Maybe it's something only successful rentboys are able to accomplish.
