Normal assumption is that prostitutes want this. The assumption is that they are bad girls. That pimps are cool. I have heard it said many times that a woman should have a right to do what she wants with her body. I am not here to debate that. I am here to discuss the vocabulary we accept and use as a society. I am here to challenge the use of the word "John" for instance. He gets the nice name that has anonymity she gets whore, etc.

Any Career

Any walk of life

   Johnny is a perpetrator. 

Let's talk about these women who, supposedly, can't wait to have sex with dozens of men, from all walks of life, a week. Statistically the average age of girls becoming prostitutes is 12. They are children not woman. They being sex trafficked and are part of modern day slavery. 

A 12 year old does NOT want to have sex with 280 lbs. 45 year old balding man or a 170 lbs. 24 year old hunky jock. She wants to hang out with friends, go to birthday parties, dream about the prom, go clothes shopping, or eat. She may want a bike, a cell phone, etc. But sex with dozens, then hundreds of men isn't on her wish list. We call her dirty words.    

Fact, there is no such thing as a child prostitute.

On the other hand, guys just can't help themselves. They have a sex drive. They have needs. It is only natural. We make excuses for men that stray and leave little girls to work for their pimp and to struggle to survive.

Why is it that a child is handcuffed
and "John" gets to go home to the wife and kids?

Pimp wants his money. 

Johnny wants younger and younger prey.

She gets labeled a criminal.

Pimps are in business. I found this post (here) on the two main types of pimps.

Romeo Pimp                                                                 

• Compliments
• Gifts
• Declares his love
• “Pretty Woman” life
• modeling

Gorilla Pimp

• Force (physically/emotionally abusive)
• Kidnapping
• Usually someone they know
• Missing Children
• Drugs/Alcohol

The aim is the same...make money. It does not matter if another human being is harmed along the way. What matters is money. Guns can be sold once. Drugs can be sold once. People can be sold repeatedly and they are disposable. 

So there you have it. One guy wants money. One guy wants sex. 1+1=prostitution. 

And, yes, they like little boys too.

Wide age range

          

I know this is a lot to assimilate, however, if we don't open our eyes we can do nothing. I also realize that "knowing" makes us responsible and we may prefer to remain in the dark. If you have read this far you are seeking to know the truth. I applaud you. Please comment below.

In future posts I will be addressing coercion. 

Perceptions of Prostitution

I've been thinking about [our] perceptions of prostitutes. The mentality that women and girls (and boys) want to be whores. There are some out there. Stats show a small percentage. That, however, does not justify the kidnapping, luring, raping, mind-control, etc of the majority who do not want sex with strangers. Both males and females believe that if that's what they want it is none of our business. Recently, I heard two young girls talking about the legalization of prostitution. One said that if a girl wants to sell her body by having sex or stripping it is body and she should do what she wants with it. The other eluded to it not being that simple.

It is just not that simple.

No problem as big as human slavery is easy to discuss. No one really enjoys the truth about modern day slavery when they hear it. But! Discuss we must. The majority of [victims] are forced or are chosen because of their past has distorted their view of their worth developed because daddy, brother, uncle, or someone else deemed safe wasn't. Some are a just flat out kidnapped.

Humans are geared to survive. As a survivor of assault I can tell you that the need to fight to survive is very real; as is the need for love. The sexual deviants and perpetrators are called by themselves and society....YOU and ME...cool names like Pimp. The girl, average age 12, is called a whore

or a prostitute. Her pimp has only one objective. MONEY. The man who buys her will actually choose and pay more for her if she is younger than if she is older. More if she is white than not. These children drink or do drugs to dull the pain. Trafficker introduce them to drugs, by force if necessary, to keep them desperate.

Movies, television, magazines, media continue to race down a careening path of sick behaviors. Open your eyes to what is out there. Listen to the words of our culture:  In the song Roxanne, it says,

"You don't have to wear that dress tonight, Walk the streets for money, You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right....I won't share you with another boy." It sounds so innocent. It sounds like she is a bad girl and he is a nice boy. 

Of course, there is 50 Cent, "I ain't that nigga trying to holla cause I want some head, I'm that nigga trying to holla cause I want some bread, I could care less how she perform when she in the bed, B*$&@, hit that track, catch a date, and come and pay the kid,
Look baby this is simple, you can't see, You *$#!ing with me, you *$#!ing with a P-I-M-P.

Sex sells and ...hello...men are buying. More and more women are buying into the mentality that sex is just sex. That is what people do. Women are addicted to porn. Women I speak to don't seem think it is such a big deal. They wear less and complain about the way men behave. These men oogle and ogle over women and children like they are at a candy store while women complain about the way men are these days. Boundaries have been confused. There is an increase in men seeking to buy and they want them younger and younger. This is a lot I know. If you take a piece of it and try to explain it way by itself you might make head way. If you look at the big picture you find that women are being treated as objects and that the men who are the in selling business want your little girls (boys too) to be buying into their sexualization of the world 
because it lines there pocketbooks.

Really?!

A trafficker is a trafficker is a trafficker...

Who are the real criminals?

WE have glamorized prostitution. Young girls and women joke about it and do whatever it takes to be sexy and alluring. Little little girls talk about being sexy. Our kids are struggling to value themselves in a society that kills unwanted children and seeks to find a home for mom and dad when they get to be too much trouble or worse; support euthanasia. Our belief that there is really no purpose to life permeates our culture and our precious children suffer. In the meantime these criminals are choosing to increase trafficking because you can sell a body repeatedly; drugs and guns only once. With the over 27 million slaves in the world we must take it seriously. Over 100,000 children are sold here in America. That is a
conservative number and it is rising.

The truth isn't pretty or sexy or cool.

Labeled as property

Yeah right,
she would rather do this
 than hang out with friends, go to prom,
 finish her education, or have birthday parties.
