International Child Sex Tourism

Post a Problem
International child sex tourism can range from organized sex tours of foreign locales to more casual, individualized travel in which a given tourist - male or female - decides to purchase the body of a local minor as a principal "attraction" of the journey. Poverty, compounded by lack of licit employment, can compel some minors to sell themselves on the streets or in brothels. Abuse at home is another potential push factor, yet many child prostitutes end up in equally abusive situations, and sometimes downright enslavement, at work. Hazards are numerous and life-threatening and include HIV/AIDS, bruising, lifetime self-blame and self-denigration, and similar ills.
