{"product_id":"understanding-the-male-hustler-1","title":"Understanding the Male Hustler","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book is a serious study of male hustlers using experiential dialogue to introduce the reader to real-life concepts and experiences that otherwise could not be effectively conveyed. An intriguing attempt to get into the mind and personality of the male hustler through a largely imagined series of dialogues between a well-known fictional hustler and his so-called amanuensis, Samuel Steward, this unique book covers all aspects of the hustler’s motivations, activities, life style, adjustments, advantages, and disadvantages. It accomplishes this dispassionately, without prejudgment, moral censure, approbation, or more than cursory involvement. Therapists and counselors in all fields of sexual functioning will find here some understanding of the causes and impulses (beyond the popular “broken home syndrome”) that lead young males into prostitution. It signals some of the signposts to danger and serious threats to health that accompany the profession of prostitution and also explains to counselors some of the activities and practices of the male prostitute, enabling them to have a better understanding of the fascination and peril of the hustler’s life. The brevity of success in such a calling is also considered, with some consideration for the necessity of long-range planning for the hustler’s future.Important contents:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003einterview of a well-known hustler \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ebrief look at early male prostitution--Greek, Roman, Burton’s theory \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe peacock period and youth as a prerequisite for hustling \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003elures of the profession--money, power, other motivations \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003epaths and mechanisms leading to hustling \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003echaracteristics of different types of hustlers \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etypes of clients patronizing hustlers \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eliterary illuminations \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe modus operandi of the male hustler \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eextraordinary dangers confronting the male hustler today \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe attractiveness of the “seeing-through” of a hustler to past clients \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003equo vadis for the hustler after youth passes Readers will be amazed by the daily hazards and drawbacks as well fascinated by the curiosities and rewards of the hustler’s profession.
