Book excerpt: A drastic rise in the number of regular crack cocaine users nationwide has lead to a disturbing concomitant phenomenon: the exchange of sexual services for crack or for money to buy the drug. Major American cities have seen increasing numbers of these men and women, commonly referred to within the drug subculture and in rap lyrics as "skeezers" or "crack whores," who dramatize the intersection of the major social issues of the 1990s: drugs, AIDS, gender roles, and the crisis of the inner city.
