Content: Sex Trafficking
The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) found that 79% of human trafficking involves sexual exploitation. However, this might be because the exploitation of women is much more visible in modern society than other types of trafficking, such as domestic servitude. It is also much more frequently reported than other types of human trafficking. Though men can be trafficked into sex trades, women are much more likely to be victims. Child Sex Trafficking
Occurs when anyone under the age of 18 is somehow brought into the sex trades, whether through recruitment, transport, solicitation, or any other form of coercion, force, or fraud. Proof of these methods is not necessary to prosecute child sex trafficking. According to the U.S. State Department, those under the age of 18 in the sex trades are always considered trafficked. This rule is the same in most countries around the world. Did You Know? In the United States, California has the most trafficking reported, followed by Texas, Florida, Ohio, and Georgia.
