Sex in Cambodia
Something that goes unnoticed in Cambodia is all the poor under aged girls who are working in brothels. Women in general have very little rights in Cambodia and with their bodies but young girls have it even worse. They get into this cycle where they are constantly being sold and owing money. There seems to be no end for these girls, no escape. Because they start at such age they miss out on the opportunity to earn an education. Their own family members will sell them to brothels because they are so desperate for money. This human trafficking is a problem in so many countries. When I was in Cambodia I would have mothers come up to me all the time asking me to buy their baby from them because they wanted them to have a better life. That is heart breaking. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJzI1_jX5RI
