This is what happens when you covet women and have no regard for male life. Sex with boys is a long standing practice in the middle east because women are off limits. Men and boys are legally responsible for the women of their households who are not allowed to work, so when money is tight like it always in in poor 3rd world countries, these boys resort to selling their bodies. The boys experience a lot of violence, like all sex workers, but are forced to go back to try and earn some money, or even just get a little food.

But you know it is not just the middle east who has boy prostitutes. They just have the highest instances of them. Boys make up the majority of underage prostitutes in most non-asian countries, including the US and Europe. But we often turn a blind eye to the suffering of males and because it does not fit our social narrative we ignore or excuse it. Boy sex workers are given much more autonomy than their female counterparts. Boys are said to do it because they like it or because they are experimenting with homosexual desires. These are not true and just ways to justify caring more for girls than boys.

Probably the most disgusting thing is the amount of aid given to help girls compared to boys. There was an organization that put of signs about sex trafficking and where to seek help. But when boys came to the place they were turned away. There are currently no organizations that focus solely the sex trafficking of boys but there are several for the sex trafficking of just girls. And even organizations that do focus on both, like unicef, highlight only girls being trafficked when asking for donations (even though their reports mention there are more boys than girls).
