white slavery

Read a random definition: quinquepartite

A quick definition of white slavery:

White slavery is when someone is forced to become a prostitute. This usually happens to girls or women, but sometimes it can happen to boys or men. It is against the law and is called trafficking. The Mann Act makes it illegal to force someone into white slavery.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: White slavery refers to the practice of forcing a woman (or, in rare cases, a man) into commercial prostitution. This is illegal and is prohibited by the Mann Act (18 USCA §§ 2421–2424).

Example: A young woman is promised a job in a foreign country, but upon arrival, she is forced into prostitution by her traffickers. She is not allowed to leave and is subjected to physical and emotional abuse.

Explanation: This example illustrates how white slavery involves the coercion and exploitation of individuals for the purpose of prostitution. The victim is often lured with false promises and then trapped in a situation where they have no control over their own lives. This is a form of human trafficking and is a serious violation of human rights.
