Sample text

In this sense it is unlike commercial sex websites, which exist primarily as a source of profit, and much more like the millions of websites which have been set up and run by enthusiasts for the benefit of fellow enthusiasts. It is not insignificant that the site refers to the practice of visiting sex workers as ‘the hobby’, the men who do so as ‘hobbyists’, and the reviews it publishes as ‘field Researching Sex in Cyberspace 21 reports’. Frank’s (2002) work on strip clubs is similar in that she reports how men view patronage of such clubs as a pastime or hobby – just a form of contemporary leisure.

Whilst such observations cannot be made in internet mediated research, this is not to say that other cues do not exist. Men’s accounts on PunterNet demonstrate that many observations can be made about the way in which men write and the methods by which they highlight their points of view. For example, exclamation marks are often used for emphasis: ... really enjoyed myself, if your paying for it, you might as well have the best, and trust me this lady is!!!!! [Bigfoot, #24] Worth anyone’s time to visit – if you’re not delighted you must be dead!!!!!

Account giving is motivated by interests: a statement made to police about one’s alleged involvement in a crime is likely to be motivated by the very obvious interest of remaining at large. An account given to one’s spouse, after an unplanned meeting with a lover will be motivated by a desire for concealment. An account given to a child, about why a parent cannot attend his or her birthday party, will be motivated by a desire to present oneself as a loving parent, and to counter what the child perceives as evidence to the contrary.
