There were some things I've already read elsewhere (like "some studies show that 90% of people in the sex industry have been abused in some form or another in their childhood and early adulthood" - I didn't know the number, it simply stated "most") but there were things I didn't have the slightiest idea about (for example the limited capability of switching from bottom to top, or that tops were rare without medicaments - I thought it was caused by limited demand for this kind of service, well, I still think there is limited demand for it).
There is alike emotional detachment among female prostitutes, from what I've heard.
I know that I enjoy the rentboy!fics partly because it's the opposite of the rentgirls/women stories I read as a teenager. I really couldn't understand why it works only this way not the other.
I hope you will complete your essay with links to the fics you like or maybe to those which represent the types you mentioned.
