I have been running on a bit of an unusually tight schedule lately. Yet, this article caught my attention in mid-September, and I wanted to share it with you guys.
It is in Spanish, which is a bit of bummer for those whose Spanish may be too rusty to read it through...

In a nutshell, it is about your usual college age guys who, though heavily affected by the lack of cash, high unemployment in Spain, and other accompanying woes, choose to save up and pay the prostitutes for some fun.
Like so many other things in Spain, it usually happens in a group or at least, with your best buddy. The amounts of cash exchanged are usually very modest. The sex is anywhere from OK to stellar. The respective GFs do not like the idea but do not need to know.
No one has serious moral hang ups about it. It is sex. Everyone needs it. And if you happen to be in your early 20's you may need a lot of it.
.
They go on to say that prostitution happens to be gender-based violence almost per se. And, sure, many prostitutes are victims of human trafficking. None of the guys seem to be too concerned about it for as long as they can enjoy themselves.
A few dudes turn out to be sex-addicts. Their ability to create human, emotional bonds, etc., is reduced or even diminished.
Yet, the article ends up quoting one of the guys saying, "with whores you save both money and time."

All of the above pertains to the str8 dudes.
Seen anything similar among the gay guys in your corner of the global woods?
