strike while the iron's hot

I'm surprised that she didn't mention this, but it's not only the men in the affected zone of the conflict who take advantage of these women, it's the men who are working for the very charitable humanitarian agencies she's referring to that send people in to the zone of conflict in order to "help." multiple men who work for charities that went into Haiti after the earthquake were caught routinely refusing to give women the food and water that was meant to be freely provided unless they exchanged sexual favors for it. this also happened to mothers who were forced to let themselves be raped not only for their survival but bc the men in question were withholding these resources from their babies as well.

Its also near impossible to solve, because if your answer is to just send female aid workers, well then you're putting those women in danger of being raped and murdered by the men they were sent to help.

the way some people treat sex tourism as a joke about losers desperate for sex will never sit right with me
