Some sex workers choose industry due to benefits: study

The Canadian Press cited a UBC study for a story about sex workers who choose the industry because it can be more lucrative than low-paying service industry jobs.

The 2016 UBC study found that the exploration of sexual and gender identity was a theme among male sex workers, and more than 70 per cent of study participants identified as a gender or sexual minority.

The story appeared in the Globe and MailNational Post, and Times Colonist.
