The article aims to complicate some stereotypes about men who pay for sex understanding the specificities of the sex market in order to think about power relations in the articulation between masculinity, emotions and affects. This analysis is the result of a virtual ethnography in two online forums of experiences of commercial sex, within a work with different actors in the Argentinean sex market. Both types of stories are described, those most modeled, apparently devoid of emotions, as well as those, apparently exceptional, where affects and confusions that destabilize certain forms of masculinities emerge. In the final reading of these stories, the points of connection between the two emerge, highlighting the illusions that the logic of the sex industry produces. Este artículo aborda diferentes narrativas que aparecen en los relatos de varones que pagan por sexo haciendo foco en las tensiones emocionales y afectivas que representan para sus masculinidades. Se busca complejizar algunos estereotipos sobre los varones que pagan por sexo y comprender las especificidades del mercado sexual para pensar las relaciones de poder en la articulación entre masculinidad, emociones y afectos. Este análisis es fruto de una etnografía virtual en dos foros online de experiencias de comercio sexual, en el marco de un trabajo de campo con distintos actores en el mercado sexual argentino. Se describen tanto los relatos más modelizados, aparentemente despojados de emociones, como aquellos, aparentemente excepcionales, donde emergen afectos y confusiones que desestabilizan ciertas formas de masculinidades. En la lectura final de estos relatos emergen los puntos de conexión entre ambos permitiendo poner de relieve las ilusiones que la lógica del mercado sexual produce.
