"In real life, women of color, particularly African-American and American Indian women, and poor women of all races, are disproportionately targeted for prostitution and most likely to be seen as consenting to it. Thus, to say that prostitution is 'just like' other forms of sexual abuse is to ignore the racism and classism that supports the mass prostitution of women and girls, especially of young Black women, in this country."
"In prostitution, the john performs the sex act with the unwilling victim, but subcontracts the intimidation and violence to another man, the pimp."
"Whilst trafficking in women is recognised by most governments and international agencies as a problem, the industry to which the victims are delivered is increasingly being normalised." (the author of this essay is australian.) ( )
