Who Are The Men That Are Buying Sex — Really?
A Hard Look at the “Demand” Side of Commercial Sex
This week we will be rebroadcasting one of our most listened to shows to date!
(Original air date June 15, 2017)
Recently, I was having a dinner table discussion about commercial sex and exploitation when a family member suddenly made a statement, “sex buyers are all Caucasian men in suits and are Republicans.” Well certainly this person is young and uninformed and I found it all quite amusing. And, perhaps she just saw a rerun of the movie “Pretty Woman.”
But it occurred to me that ALL of us have prejudices and preconditioning on the subject of sex buying. Certainly prostitution is the world’s oldest profession. We have all heard that ad nauseam. But, because of gangs and social media, commercial sex is not the casual activity we once thought it was.
There is a critical need to educate men and women that sex buying in a world of sex trafficking is not a victimless event. More important, if a cartel will violate a child for commercial gain, they will think nothing of violating and exploiting the sex buyer. This is one episode that should be heard and shared with men and women around the globe.
Join us Thursday, May 10, 2018 at 7a.m. PST on VOICE AMERICA – Variety Channel as we explore the phenomena of sex buying and the demographics of the perpetrators.
