I am not going to lie when I first heard the commercial that they decided to play I was not looking forwarded to the presentation. To me those are some of the most stereotypical images or commercial that come to mind when talking about serious isseus facing the world. I absolute dread listening to that Sarah Mclachlan. I just wish that would have done there own slide show of images of the U.S sex slave industry. I think everyone is focusing on what is happening in Europe and Asia which is a huge problem don't get me wrong. I think that is played up in the U.S more than it should be. Espically since we have high satistic when it comes to human trafficking. I don't think we can go out and tell other how to solve their problems and comment on it when we have issues like that in our own country.
My perspective on the gender issues is that there is a huge conflict. If we look at the U.S who get in trouble when a brothel is hit or raided. If it the men who go to it and use the services they offer no. It is the women and maybe the pimp if he can be found.
The services are offered because there is a market for it. How the people who use the business of prostitution just get a slap on the wrist. Idefinetly think in the U.S harsser punishment are needed for the men or women who use the service of prostitution because it is still illegal.
It not fair for us just to blame the women when it is busted.
This can't be used abroad in poorer country. the point was brought up to day in class. They are selling their daughter because of financial hardship. To get this to stop you have to make an insensitive for why they should keep their children or wives. You have to educate and help make this women valuable and seen as a resource to stay with the family. While that sucks that we have to help people realize women are important or give them a pig so they will keep their daughters. If it means that a girl wouldn't be put in to the industry. I think it is worth.
