以经济交换为动机的性行为是一个公共卫生问题，是撒哈拉以南非洲艾滋病毒流行的驱动因素。我们描述的模式，从事交易性关系和性与南非男子卖淫的妇女，并提出解释，推进我们对这一现象的理解。横断面研究随机选择了1645名年龄在18-49岁之间的性活跃男性，他们在家庭研究中完成了访谈，并被问到他们是否与卖淫妇女发生过性关系，或者他们是否有过以物质利益为动机的关系或性行为（交易性行为）。18%的男性曾经与卖淫女性发生过性关系，66%的男性至少有过一种交易性关系，只有30%的男性两种都没有。大多数男子与主要伴侣有过交易关系/性关系（占所有男子的58%），42%与同时伴侣（或makhwapheni），44%与曾经的伴侣有过交易关系/性关系，报告中向不同伴侣类型的妇女提供的服务几乎没有差异。大多数男性区分了这两种类型的性关系，即使在有过一次性交易性行为并给予现金的男性（n = 314）中，也很少（34%）报告说他们与“妓女”发生过性关系。变性在25-34岁的男性、受教育程度较低的男性和低收入者中更为常见，而不是那些没有收入或收入较高的人。与卖淫妇女发生性关系在不同的社会和人口类别之间差别不大，但在无工资或收入很低的人中不太常见。通过对女性的研究而形成的“性交易”概念并不容易转化为男性。许多人认为，人们期望她们发挥提供者的作用，以性作为交换。男子将这些性行为与与卖淫妇女发生性关系区分开来。虽然可能有相似之处，但从关系上看，这些都是非常不同的做法。把它们混为一谈在社会学上是不恰当的。与男子合作减少性交易的努力应侧重于解决性权利问题和促进两性不平等。
Sex motivated by economic exchange is a public health concern as a driver of the Sub-Saharan African HIV epidemic. We describe patterns of engagement in transactional sexual relationships and sex with women in prostitution of South African men, and suggest interpretations that advance our understanding of the phenomenon. Cross-sectional study with a randomly-selected sample of 1645 sexually active men aged 18–49 years who completed interviews in a household study and were asked whether they had had sex with a woman in prostitution, or had had a relationship or sex they took to be motivated by the expectation of material gain (transactional sex). 18% of men had ever had sex with a woman in prostitution, 66% at least one type of transactional sexual relationship, only 30% of men had done neither. Most men had had a transactional relationship/sex with a main partner (58% of all men), 42% with a concurrent partner (or makhwapheni) and 44% with a once off partner, and there was almost no difference in reports of what was provided to women of different partner types. The majority of men distinguished the two types of sexual relationships and even among men who had once-off transactional sex and gave cash (n = 314), few (34%) reported that they had had sex with a ‘prostitute’. Transactional sex was more common among men aged 25–34 years, less educated men and low income earners rather than those with none or higher income. Having had sex with a woman in prostitution varied little between social and demographic categories, but was less common among the unwaged or very low earners. The notion of ‘transactional sex’ developed through research with women does not translate easily to men. Many perceive expectations that they fulfil a provider role, with quid pro quo entitlement to sex. Men distinguished these circumstances of sex from having sex with a woman in prostitution. Whilst there may be similarities, when viewed relationally, these are quite distinct practices. Conflating them is sociologically inappropriate. Efforts to work with men to reduce transactional sex should focus on addressing sexual entitlement and promoting gender inequity.
