Sexual exploitation involves someone under the age of 18 exchanging a sexual act for something in return. The purpose of this exchange is the exploitation of a child or youth's needs. A sexual act can be exchanged for money, food, shelter, protection, love, acceptance, popularity, and anything else. It is never the child or youth's fault, even in the case of self driven exploitation.
Some forms of sexual exploitation:
> pressure to engage in sexual acts at parties or in relationships
> pressure for sexting or sextortion
> trafficking of minors (forced prostitution) by traffickers who are boyfriending or befriending youth
> sugar daddy/sugar baby relationships or escorting type behaviour
> pressure to engage in sexual acts through online predators
> selling of sexual acts by girlfriends of gang members
