Acesso em:.2318-1346https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/13688This article is the result of the first year of field research developed for the doctoral thesis entitled: “The history of prostitution in dam areas in the Amazon: The dark side of great capital”, It is also the results of the discussions conducted in the discipline “Sociobiodiversity and job". This paper, we discuss several aspects such as the profile of sex workers, the profile of clients, the value of a pool, we briefly discuss the reasons that lead these people to enter the sex market. We talk about the challenges of doing field research during the pandemic period, we present the transcript of dialogues that were collected throughout the year 2020 with a total of 50 sex workers. The questions were initially open, but as soon as the interviewees felt at ease, the open questions turned into life narratives and trajectories that started from family history to the moment that led them to “choose” the sex market. The data collected resulted in a table that presents the physical characteristics, age group, types of pooling and the average fees charged per pooling.Acesso AbertoProstituiçãoProfissionais do sexoHistória oralServiços sexuaisProstitutionSex workersOral historySexual poolingArtigo de Periódico10.18542/nra.v9i2.10673
