Pornography and Media Violence....continued
SEX TOURISM AND CHILD ABUSE
A deplorable situation has arisen where pornography is used
for child abuse. Tourists go abroad on holidays and sexually abuse child
prostitutes. Interviews have been held with such tourists, as well as a hundred
child and adult prostitutes, pimps and brothel keepers, so the facts are welll
established. Sex tourism features on the Internet and tourists produce their
own pornography in videos and photographs.
This brings into question the need for some kind of
censorship of the Internet. There was the case of a man with no previous
history of child abuse who spent three weeks holiday in Thailand every year to
engage in sexual tourism. Some of the girls were only ten years old. His
practice caused a progressive shift in his moral boundaries. These offenders
can now be tried in Britain when they return.
