Female Sex Trafficking By: Valerie Beltran
Sex Trafficking • Definition: The “recruitment” and international transportation of individuals by force, fraud or coercion into labor or sexual exploitation. (wiki)
The country I'm doing is:Australia • Australia is a destination country for all those that are trafficked from East Asia, South East Asia, and Eastern Europe. • More Prone : Women & Young Girls (humantrafficking.org)
Causes • Causes: (humantrafficking.org) • Lack of women in Australia that want to prostitute • Customer wants a compliant woman. • Customer wants women who they can be violent towards. • Belief of customers that Asian women can "tolerate" more violence and are more compliant than any other race.
Effects • Families get hurt, Mentally and physically sick from getting raped and drugged and beat. • Women sometimes die of overdose due to the heroine that they take so they will do whatever the “customer” says. • Women getting STD’s and other diseases from men not using protection. (traffickingproject.org)
“Prevention” • Project Respect is a non profit organization that supports women • that are in the sex industry and help prevent exploitation and enslavement of the women in the industry. • Since 2004, • the federal police has opened 112 investigations on human trafficking, • 22 people have been charged with human trafficking, • and four convictions on sex trafficking. • "Prevention“ the Government provides security and a temporary visa to go to another place to stay away from their old "jobs". • They provide all help as long as the women provide information about where they are kept and who their "bosses" are. (projectrespect.org)
Relating to Tolerance: • lack of caring • if it doesn't effect us personally, we look the other way • We only look at what has to do with us, for example: • The war in Afghanistan, America put interest in that, we have "our people" there, so that effects us. • Lack of enforcement from police • Sex slavery laws are failing
Overall.. • This is something that we cannot stop because we do not know how to get to these hide outs and these women wont tell. Its not we tolerate it, its something that we cannot prevent from happening. These “bosses” and “masters” don’t let these women leave anywhere so there’s no contact from these women to where they are at and who is the “master” behind this “business”
