The aim of this article is to shed light on diverse problems a researcher might encounter in the process of conducting field research on difficult phenomena which are often enough, resistant to immediate cognition. Drawing on specific experiences and research situations, in the context of data collection techniques applied during the study, the focus is here on the importance of self-reflection regarding one’s own research behaviour at every stage of developing a study. It is also indicated in this article that specific standards of conducting a research are often of no use when it comes to research practice, what a researcher refers to, dealing with specific dilemmas, back to his/her experience in the field work or one’s intuition. Therefore, with an eye to expedite research projects regarding difficult phenomena, reflections on methodological and ethical dilemmas – along with difficulties resulting from one’s bodily constraints – that emerged during the study regarding female prostitution within the universe of escort agencies are presented in this article.

There is little discussion of institutional assistance for women abandoning prostitution in the academic literature. There is especially lack of analyzing the catholic perspective which sometimes is, as in case of Sharon Oselin and Ronald Weitzer, linked with radical feminism. In the article, I reconstruct the model of assistance for former female sex workers using the example of the Catholic Center for girls and women at risk of prostitution and wanting to abandon it. I also analyze the views of the Center’s staff regarding prostitution, prostitutes, and how they should function after giving up selling sexual services. I draw on my ethnographic research which I conducted (intermittently) in 2005-2016.

Literatura przedmiotu w niewielkim stopniu dotyczy pomocy instytucjonalnej kobietom porzucającym prostytucję. Szczególnie brakuje omówienia perspektywy katolickiej, która bywa – jak w przypadku badań Sharon Oselin i Ronalda Weitzera – łączona z perspektywą radykalnego feminizmu. W artykule rekonstruuję koncepcję pomocy dla byłych pracownic seksualnych na przykładzie katolickiego Ośrodka dla dziewcząt i kobiet zagrożonych prostytucją i chcących porzucić jej uprawianie. Analizuję również poglądy jego personelu odnośnie prostytucji, prostytutek i tego, jak powinny one funkcjonować po rezygnacji ze świadczenia usług seksualnych. Swoje rozważania opieram na badaniach etnograficznych, które prowadziłam (z przerwami) w latach 2005–2016.
