 Today I want to talk about sex The commercial sex For the past eight years. I have been working to help the victim of sex trafficking in Japan So I our organization In the five eight years we helped more than 120 victims of sex trafficking mostly women and children But we believe there's more than that Some of people might know Japan is the biggest destination country of the sex trafficking victims So we are estimating this 54,000 victims still trying to escape but they can't come out because of the fear because of the shame So I have seen the extreme violence in this commercialized sex industry Let me share with you one of the client we met She was a 13 years old girl when she was trafficked by her pimps So many men bought her the men who could be as young as a student like college students or Men who could be her grandpa's age It's obvious she's being forced. She's not willing to be there. It's obvious. She's a minor But no one cared So she has been prostituted for two months every day But in the same time for the past eight years, I also see how I'm Fascinated by how sophisticated our sex industry became Let me share with you my own experience So now the internet thanks to the internet we Purchased women online. We advertise them online and we recruit them online So a few weeks ago. I was in a subway and the guy Sitting next to me he was scrolling down something on his iPhone But he was about to make a purchase of the escort service so he was scrolling down and Deciding girl which girl to choose and then deciding the time and venue In a few hours, she will be delivered to his apartment or the hotel. They arranged How convenient is that and they even you can get student discount if you bring your student ID They give you a discount. I was surprised because I did not know anything about this But my our clients told me But I think it's affecting the way young people see the sexuality and the sex The statistic shows young people especially teens. They are more open to the commercial sex like buying and selling sex in the same time The other statistic shows young men one in three young men. They don't they are not interested in Having intimate relationship or like having a partner boyfriend or girlfriend. I Think it's affecting the way communicate especially young people. I Think we are making our sex disposable Like a fast food you crave for it and you buy it its instant gratification And we can't save the person the girl like he's 13 years old girl we helped She's been trafficked to the prostitution for two months. No one realized. She's being forced No one cared. I Think we can choose a society where the commercialization of sex is our daily life Or we can choose a society where we teach the children the importance of sexuality and the positive side of sex and How to you know build the intimate relationship? I Want to ask all of you how far are we going to commercialize our own sex? Thank you
