“…Highlighting enduring links between female sex work and male labor, Koch (2016) found prevalent rhetoric about female care needed to "heal" male workers. Although ethnographic portrait of the elite club where she worked remains a touchstone, newer research makes clear how unusually elite that space was (Gagné 2010;Parreñas 2011). In general, women working as hostesses in Japan are likely to be foreign, making citizenship and legal status vitally important (Faier 2009;Matsui 1995).…”

“…Estos estudios se centran en analizar qué lugar ocupan las mujeres en estos trabajos de «entretenimiento sexualizado» en los Estados Unidos y en otros contextos (Allison 1994; Parreñas 2011; Ragsdale, Anders y Philippakos 2007). Término que sitúa «entretenimiento» en un abanico que va desde el turismo sexual (Cabezas 2004;Kempadoo 2005;Piscitelli 2004) hasta los clubes de striptease (Barton 2006;Frank 2002;Gagné 2010;Maia 2012), teniendo en común que, en todos ellos, la sexualidad de las mujeres aparece como susceptible de ser explotada para el ocio y diversión de los varones.

“…Dominican women's work in bars falls within the realm of "sexualized entertainment" as portrayed in these studies. Describing "entertainment" ranging from sex tourism (Cabezas, 2004;Piscitelli, 2004;Kempadoo, 2001) to strip clubs (Barton, 2006;Gagné 2010;Frank, 2002;Maia, 2012), "sexualized entertainment" encompasses modes of recreation that position women's sexuality as exploitable for men's leisure and recreation. Sexualized entertainment is an ambiguous term, encompassing forms and modes of sexualized labor that do not "count" as sex work, although they may involve occasional sex-for-money transactions.…”
