At its core, sex trafficking is fueled by the basic principle of supply and demand. Traffickers make enormous profits by selling vulnerable human beings for sex (this is the ‘supply’). They can do this because there are willing buyers seeking to pay for sex (this is the ‘demand’). If no one purchased sex acts, viewed pornography, subscribed to live sex cams or engaged in promoting the commercial sex world altogether, our epidemic of girls, boys, women and men trafficked for sex would be gone.
This course, which can be completed in approximately 35 minutes, features the story of a survivor who was trafficked for sex as a teen, as well as men talking to other men about the connections between commercial sex and sex trafficking. In addition to better understanding the sexual violence continuum, you will gain valuable tips on how to engage in conversations around demand in your own life, a key step in helping to prevent and end sex trafficking.
