Walking through the lanes of disgust, pain and suffering in the black corridors of sexual exploitation
Journal Title: Progress in Health Sciences - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
The authors of this article have seen varied circumstances, situations and scenarios related to the sexual exploitation of young females (generally in the presence of their restricted, prohibited or adverse conditions), which drive an innocent girl towards the grave, painful and ever unfolded but mostly undesirably sustained realities of human life. There are threats, violence, deception, fraud, coercion and all forms of female exploitation within and outside the established and accepted framework of societal norms, structure and functioning. These instances are tip of the iceberg and represent much sought after need of taking serious cognizance of the unwelcome phenomenon occurring all around us. Only careful watch, personalized attention and timely action may be required for the wide spectrum of self motivated as well as pre-identified interventionists to be able to deal with the scenario, sometimes beyond human imagination, which may well be avoided in favor of the exploited for their long term rehabilitation, merging into their own society and economic self dependence. This study highlights some important issues in and around the complex scenario of sexual exploitation of women and young girls underlining the need for a positive change.
