One nuance this article doesn't do a good job of explaining: the majority of sex trafficking cases that are encountered are situations where an underage teenager seeks out sex work (the median age cited in the article is 17).
Obviously there is a lot of nuance here - some were groomed, some volunteered, lots were in bad family situations and got exploited.
But even in terrible situations like this, it is not a stranger being grabbed of the street.
- londons_explore 5y agoI think we need different terms... For example: * Kidnapping and sex slavery:. Where someone is forced to do sex work and cannot quit. * Providing adult services while underage. A child has an onlyfans account posting nudes because they get more pocket money doing that than delivering newspapers. Both are illegal, but morally they are in very different categories, so we shouldn't use the same words to describe them.
