Sexual exploitation of boys in three of India's major pilgrimage centres is pervasive and on the rise, a study said yesterday. The study focused on male child prostitution at Hindu temple sites in Puri, eastern Orissa state, and at Tirupati and at Guruvayoor in southern Andhra Pradesh and Kerala states.

 

The study said that in Tirupati, where tourists are mostly Indians, boys aged between six and 18 years said prostitution is rampant due to demand from domestic tourists.

 

"Family members saw less risk when male children are involved in selling sex as compared to girls, as the social stigma is less and the fear of pregnancy does not exist," the report said.

I can just imagine the stampede of pedophiles heading to India.

Personally, I hope that's exactly what the ones who plague Thailand will do. Good riddance.

I am with you on this one.

so you guys don't mind sexual exploitation of young boys as long as they aren't young Thai boys?

I didn't say that. Of course I mind it. But if they're going to do that whether I like it or not, then I would rather they go elsewhere. I admit it's selfish of me, but when they do those things in my neighborhood, it has a direct effect on my life. I hate to read about terrorist bombings too, but I'd much rather read about one than be a victim of one.

Isn't it interesting how people twist words around? Of course, sexual exploitation is not OK, but as GB said, since it's going to happen anyway, it's better if it happens elsewhere.
