They’re not really on the supply end. For that, you can look to others, whether it’s parents so poor they sell their children or people who are in such dire economic straights that they sell themselves. And there will always be the con who will convince people that the answer to their problems lies just around this corner….

Sex tourists, trading on the misery of Iraqi women and girls in Syria. But this has been well known for years. Saudis/Gulf men were famous in Beirut for being almost the sole source of the sex trade.
