Drawing from literature, I will unpack the various forms of economically motivated relationships reported in this study, which ranged from romantic relationships to sugar daddies and brothel-like sex dens. In a unique form of triangulation, I will also reflect on my observations from the discussions and audience responses gathered from the various venues where I have presented these research findings over the past year. From shock and outrage to a sly smile of knowing, the responses were often gendered, generational and surprisingly reflective of a trend occurring among young people across Toronto, not just racialized youth in the Jane-Finch community. This paper will conclude with a discussion of the legal and health implications of this sexual subculture.
