Pimp

devoted to recruiting victims for sex trafficking. People can be drawn to this underground, over glorified subculture without ever leaving their homes. Media affects the perceptions people have about sex trafficking in three ways: by portraying pimps and prostitutes as prosperous, by desensitizing society to sex and violence, and by lending itself to be used as a portal to lure in…

is in a relation with a pimp named Alphonse, yet the outcome of this visit only increases her need for affection, an “affection that no one can give” (O’Neill 197). This pushes her back to Alphonse’s gifts and attention. Ian Urbina explains this behavior in his article “For Runaways, Sex Buys Survival” by stating that pimps “go after girls with low self-esteem” more specifically juveniles because they “are far easier to manipulate” (For Runaways). The goal of these pimps is to make the girls…

Being sexually abused as a child can pave the way for victims to enter prostitution. With immense vulnerabilities, child sex workers can endanger themselves to physical, verbal violence and sexual assaults from pimps or customers. Furthermore, they are usually defenseless in negotiating the use of condom during intercourses (Willis and Levy 2002). Thus, not only are child sex workers at risk for infectious transmittable diseases such as STD, HIV, uterine infection but also is their community.…

three studio albums, and although all are widely acclaimed, the one that is going to be focused on in this essay is his third album titled, To Pimp a Butterfly. There are a total of sixteen songs on the album, however I will only be concentrating on three songs: “King Kunta”, “The Blacker the Berry” and “Complexion (A Zulu Love).” Kendrick Lamar’s album, To Pimp a Butterfly” is more than just a generic album for listening pleasure, but a symbol of black resistance and protest that addresses the…

It has been widely regarded in unsavory terms as the world’s oldest profession. Those who actively engage in this profession are resented by the society yet the world has battled for centuries to do away with this oldest trade. This trade does not buy and sell goods or exchange commodity rather it specializes on services traded in street, in the red rooms, of various red light districts. That commodity sold and bought is called sex. After many years of tackling human trafficking and advocating…

Around the world corrupted men and women sexually exploit children solely as a business move. Most of these prostitutes cannot escape, due to limited access to help and fear of retaliation from their bosses, commonly called “pimps.” These pimps control their constituents’ every move; most of the men, women, and children involved remain in captivity for several years (George 565). Through economic drive, a constant supply of victims, and governmental neglect, child sex tourism continues to haunt…

money or some specific payment is defined as prostitution. Legalizing the sexual performances of this engagement can cause pimps, traffickers and the sex industry to be decriminalized in the justice system, and there would be an increase of general health problems for sex-workers in the industry. The legalization of prostitution would be a present wrapped with a bow to the pimps and traffickers who are doing it illegally in the streets currently. Also, keep in mind on how this legalization can…

controlled by their pimps; people will consider them as prostitutes. People, who assume these things, often have no idea of those girls story or what they have been through. Just because a person is dressed a certain way and does certain thing does not mean they are doing it on their own will. There are rarely cases where people are prostitutes by free choice. Many times they are brought into the business and do not see a way out. They are controlled and manipulated by their pimps. There…

Who would actually want to legalize prostitution? It’s an invitation of sexually transmitted diseases, illegal drugs, and violence all at your door step! Now imagine your family waking up at any hour in the day and seeing an individual leaned over a car and shortly afterwards get in just to return and complete the cycle repetitiously. Or perhaps someone approaching you seeking money for drugs. Wild enough yet? How about your spouse infecting you with a sexually transmitted disease that you know…

my mother just to make an informed decision before entering a business agreement. Learning that victims are killed daily, by their “pimps” or “johns” (prostitute’s customer). Also, perish due to contracting Aids and HIV. Not to mention, no one wants to deal with this population due to the risk factors. There has been instances that the men/women call their “pimp” to the home to pick them up and when security won’t let them leave they are threated and/or attacked. Also, when a person has…
