The Johns
Sex for Sale and the Men
Who Buy It
Following up on his scathing
indictment of the international sexual enslavement of women in The Natashas,
investigative journalist Victor Malarek lays bare the other side of the
crisis—the men who fuel the demand.
Each year
more than 800,000 women and children are lured, tricked, or forced into
prostitution to meet an apparently insatiable demand, joining an estimated 10
million women already ensnared in the $20 billion worldwide sex trade. To date,
most research on the subject has focused on the various issues that propel
these women into the trade, but little has been investigated, or written, about
those who trigger the demand—the "Johns." In this hard-hitting
expose, Victor Malarek ranges worldwide, unmasking the kind of men—and
organizations—that foster and drive the sex trade, from America to Europe,
Brazil to Thailand, Phnom Penh to St. Petersburg and Costa Rica. The Johns is a chilling
look into a dark corner of the world that these men have created at the expense
of countless women and children.
