The enslavement of women as prostitutes and the addiction to sexual perversion is not new to mankind. But as in war and child labor, today's “sex industry” increasingly enslaves the youngest and most vulnerable of the world—children. Their innocent lives are completely shattered! And the “services” that this industry offers are in high demand—typically by the more affluent of the world. Many “successful” and “prominent” people travel great distances just to indulge in perverse pleasures.
In the United Kingdom, the problem is multi-faceted. First, African teenagers seeking asylum, some as young as 14, are rounded up by gangs and sold as prostitutes in Italy (BBC News, March 8, 2001, “Child Asylum Seekers Sold for Sex”).
Second, according to both the police and childcare agencies, hundreds of children are being used as prostitutes in and around Britain. Many are addicted to crack cocaine, and will do anything to feed their habit.
Another BBC News report stated, “These children exist on the margins of society—they are extremely distrustful of the police and social services. It has been described as a revolving door situation—the police hand them over to social services, but within hours they are often back on the street.”
One case, involving a particularly dangerous pimp, included 22 girls, ages 12 to 18. A police inspector explained, “He [the pimp] was extremely skilled at identifying disaffected, unhappy, vulnerable young teenage girls, most of whom where either already in the care system or on the brink of the care system. On a commercial basis, he recruited and exploited them as prostitutes on the streets of central London.”
In 1996, The New York Times summarized the horrific nature of the child-prostitution industry in Asia. The article estimated that there were tens of thousands of children who were slaves working in “the plantations of the 1990s”: The brothels of Cambodia, India, China, Thailand, the Philippines, Taiwan and other countries. The article explained that these brothels were built by customer demand from Americans and other Westerners, and have in fact, descended from the brothels of the Vietnam War. What takes place in them would be classified in the West as child molestation and rape!
The rise of capitalism in places like China and Indochina is resulting in markets emerging not just for rice and pork, but also for virgin girls.

So much for women being the main cause of the problems. I can't imagine how a human mind is capable of such extreme measures. Creativity is geared towards filth. And some think that people are more civilized now.
Below is an article I read a long time ago in the National Geographic Magazine.
Milakovic threatened to kill the activist for her outspokenness, but to me he sang a softer tune. Over a poolside luncheon of seafood salad and steak, we discussed the stream of young women fleeing the shattered economies of their home countries in the former Soviet bloc. Milakovic said he was eager to promote his scheme to legalize prostitution in Bosnia—"to stop the selling of people, because each of those girls is someone's child."
This should have also been included in the Prostitutions thread.
