What exactly is sexual exploitation?
An Epidemic.
Sexual exploitation is falls under a form of human trafficking, an umbrella term, and other forms of child predation legislation.
It involves a minor (someone under the age of 18) engaging in sexual activity in return for something- such as money, gifts, love, popularity, protection, or self-esteem. Sexual activity can be in person or digital, such as in the case of photos or videos. The exchange is often times in return for getting certain needs met, that a minor might be lacking.
Many children and youth are groomed into sexual exploitation by child predators, human traffickers, family members, or peers. However, with the digital age, self directed exploitation can also occur. Regardless of whether the minor believes they have consented, they legally can not consent and it is never their fault.
Some forms of sexual exploitation include:
- Online predators luring and grooming minors into sexual activity online or in person
- Peer pressure and consent in relationships or amongst peers
- Sextortion (a common form of digital blackmail)
- Sex trafficking (minors engaging in sexual activity in exchange for money)
- Sugar daddy/sugar baby relationships or escorting type behaviour
- Selling of sexual acts by girlfriends of gang members
