After the attack and murder of this woman was widely publicized, within days, her name became the number one search term on one of the world’s largest porn sites.
The 37-year-old teacher and 17-year-old student used what police labeled a “social media ruse” to obtain sexually explicit images from minors.
The irony of a porn site responding to the COVID-19 public health crisis by encouraging and supplying access to another public health issue is not lost on us.
“I would brag about how cool I was for being so open-minded and boys would often be amazed and tell me they wished their girlfriends were like me.”
“It wasn’t until I decided to quit porn and really focus on my family and wife that things turned around. It’s been the best 4 months of my life so far!”
“Up until I found out, I didn’t have a clue; but whenever I left him home alone, that different side of him would come out.”
Objects don’t have feelings. Objects are owned by people. If we turn people into objects, we no longer see them as having feelings and can’t empathize with them.
Sexual exploitation changed with the introduction of the internet. We spoke with two organizations making a difference in Southeast Asia.
“We were in high school when I first met my future husband. He was my first serious boyfriend, so obviously, I had no real sexual experience.”
“I couldn’t hold down long-term relationships because I never knew how to properly have one. All my information about love was from the porn I watched.”
“I grabbed his phone to change the music he was playing. I could see it in his face straight away that there was something he didn’t want me to see.”
It’s safe to say that the porn industry is, at best, complicit in trafficking and, at worst, an active participant—possibly similarly to these hotel groups.
