[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I first really started widely hearing the term sex trafficking about 10 years ago.  Prior to that, I considered sex trafficking to be where victims were essentially kidnapped and forced into prostitution.  It's pretty evident that the term is now used for situations that are less coercive than what I had previously assumed.

So are most forms of prostitution now considered trafficking?  And [b]would the pimps of yesteryear (prior to the 2000's) now be labeled traffickers?[/b][/quote]

Yes.

Sex work that is not solo-practitioner if you will, is trafficking. Sex workers with "pimps" as you put it do not have complete freedom over their bodies and lives and work, even if they have not been kidnapped. [/quote]

Sounds like a lot of non-sex-work jobs I know![/quote]

Everyone who uses their body to make money, is a prostitute in a sense. [/quote]

Only if it's the part of your body that belongs to your husband. [/quote]
