Along with female on male violence, abuse, rape, etc. being vastly overlooked and ignored issues, FOM trafficking is similarly brushed aside as well. Not that intelligent conversation is to be expected on Twitter/X, but I saw some stupid comment from a bitter misandrist earlier who went on with the usual "women and children" spiel about women and children being trafficked, and of course, try not to act surprised... no mention at all of men also being trafficked and women being traffickers. Trafficking is abhorrent and vile no matter who does it to what, but as always, it's made into a completely one-sided issue and women who traffick male victims is overlooked and ignored, and not treated as a serious subject. And of course you bring it up you get the usual retorts to stop silencing women, why do you only bring this up when women are talking, it's like saying "all lives matter," etc. Ugh. Anything to deflect from male victims and make everything into a victimhood contest.

Men and boys being trafficked by women is just as disgusting as the other way around. An especially ignored issue is boys being forced to become child soldiers in third world and impoverished nations. I was shocked yet pleasantly surprised when the movie Blue Beetle from last year actually touched on it, so it's good there's at least some attempt to get people to realize it's an actual thing that happens. It gives me hope someday this will get just as much attention and activism taken as there is for female trafficking victims.
