`deepthroatfucker' and `Discerning Adonis': Men and cybersex

This article uses interviews with male cybersex participants to examine their experiences of cybersex and considers constructions of `self' and `sex' in their discussions. It asks how the adoption of a cybersex persona is understood by participants and how they characterize their cybersexual practices in order to develop a clearer picture of the ways in which new forms of communication technology are implicated in producing new forms of sexual practice and how these relate to contemporary perceptions of what sex is.
