Slang for a male sex worker — a term that uses the euphemism of 'business' to describe transactional sexual services. Like similar coded language in this space, it softens the explicit nature of the activity with vague professional framing. The term circulates in discussions of sex work, queer history, and underground economies, and carries a certain ambiguity that allows it to be understood by those in the know while remaining opaque to outsiders.
