Synopsis "Anthropology of Masculinity, Prostitution, and Sex (in English)"
The concept of prostitution and the attraction to marginality take the attention of the observer and the analyst as if they were a house with open, wide-open windows drawing the passerby's attention to the content of the scenes that take place inside. Marginality is raunchy. With this, the scholar may feel attracted to this "world", leaving his or her academic, sometimes ascetic, pasteurized, encased, or, according to Hanna Arendt, "imprisoned in a high ivory tower". The contemporary philosopher and, why not the anthropologist - with less epistemological isolation than the philosopher - needs to leave the strict world of the academy and open his eyes to see life. And life is what instigates, what attracts, what catches the eye and what holds attention. Life is the debate, it is the tension and the adrenaline.
