More than one in 10 men have paid for sex, according to a major study of British sexual habits.
The majority of the 11% who had done so had visited sex tourism hotspots such as Bangkok and Amsterdam.
The report, in the journal Sexually Transmitted Infections, said paying for sex was linked with other "hedonistic and risky behaviours" including binge drinking and drug use.
It said that young professionals rather than "lonely older men" were paying.
A team at University College London analysed data from the Third National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles.
Their initial study found couples were having less sex than in the 1990s. Now their investigations have turned to the practice of paying for sex.
