More college text book than exciting prose, it should be (and probably is) required reading for anyone studying sexology or sex workers. Very interesting. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars This is NOT an erotic novel *by R***K on Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2014* If you are buying this book to be aroused, you will be dissapointed. If you are buying it like a novel, you will be dissapointed. What this book really is, is a repackaging of a doctoral dissertation for the curious masses. What are you curious about? Well, how the "customer" of the gentlemen's club thinks, why he thinks it, and what it means. This book is not about the dancers or what they think, it is about the customers. It is a very well researched, fully annotated and footnoted and referenced. This is a research paper, a long one. The author took the subject matter seriously and spent a few years working the clubs she wrote about. Mind you, this was not homoerotic fantasy she was living. This was serious research. She did not hide the fact she was doing scientific research, taking notes, doing structured and semistructured interviews etc. This is a dense piece, full of interesting information and written more like a research dissertation than a book. So expect rather monotone, dense, bland reading, but expect lots of interesting intelligence on the world of its subject matter, with solid reference support.Final words. Now that I have warned you that this is not novel or erotic book (so look elswhere if that is what you are looking for, it was NOT what I was looking for), you may then put on your PhD psychologist/sociologist hat on and find some fault with the research methods employed. And well you should. There is bias and quasi-experimental method design and variant sample selection including straight up convenience sampling (which is just fine when used properly). But the thing is that is, it is still a book and not dissertation so I can't really get carried away can I?This book is notable most for the perspective it takes. It asks about the customer not the performer. That makes it more of an anthropological exploration, a social psychology expose as well as a sociology experiment.It is an interesting read, informative, and investigative. The cover picture is unfortunate for many potential readers I am afraid, cuz this aint a marital aid. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars An Extremely Anthropological Disection Of The Male Psyche *by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2003* I've read a number of books dealing with this genre, but this was (by far) the most dry. It is extremely clinical, and reads more like a doctoral dissertation than a book. That's not to say that there weren't some interesting points made in the book, but you REALLY had to dig through the anthro jargon.Franks cites other source a lot -- more than any other book I've read. Nearly every paragrah refers to an exterior source. I found this a little distracting.Overall, I'm not sorry I read the book, but be prepared -- it does not wisk you along -- you really have to fight to glean Frank's points. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/7307322-g-strings-and-sympathy-strip-club-regulars-and-male-desire](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/7307322-g-strings-and-sympathy-strip-club-regulars-and-male-desire) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-23*
