Teen prostitution has been a fact of life in major cities for a long, long time. Girls are usually being controlled by a pimp, but many boys are operating on their own. The fact that this boy 1) did the “performing”, and 2) didn’t tell a parent or police, suggests he did this voluntarily and wasn’t worried about what happened.
I am sure you are right but when I was kid NO one ever talked about it and I wouldn’t have done the gay thing for all the tea in China.
