viding sex services in escort agencies. Escort agencies, where women provide sex service to men, are a specific context of generating and maintaining masculinity. Individual and collective visits of men in escort agencies are an opportunity to develop and present their own vision of masculinity. It takes place both in the generally accessible space of the agency towards other visitors, and during the sex meeting, alone with a female sex worker. Based on interviews with escort agencies’ employees three types of masculinity presented by clients can be reconstructed: obvious masculinity, problematic masculinity (with following subtypes: uncertain, unfulfilled and denied) and non-masculinity. Every type relates to different expectations as to the course of the meeting, and with different manners of treating the female sex workers. The article is based on qualitative data (interviews and observations), collected during the research project regarding work situation of women in escort agencies.
