Show notes

Dr. Sandie Morgan and Dr. Glenn Miles discuss Dr. Miles' experience with human trafficking and the research he has completed on the topic. With a focus on how males are sexually exploited, Dr. Miles has a unique perspective on the issue of human trafficking. They discuss the cultural views on male sexual exploitation and the dangers children face when they have access to pornography. Glenn Miles Glenn Miles is an independent researcher, evaluator, trainer. He has pioneered 3 NGOs in Cambodia. His research mostly focuses on listening to the voices of survivors of sex trafficking with a special concern for men and boys. This year he has helped complete an evaluation of the Chab Dai Longitudinal Butterfly Project. Key Points Glenn Miles discovered that boys were being sexually abused much more than had been originally thought. Porn is often seen as a male issue; however, anyone can be affected by it and become addicted to it. When a boy is sexually abused by an adult female, society often reacts with congratulations for the boy. In contrast, if a girl were sexually abused by an adult male, society would react very differently. Both situations are the same and must be responded to in the same way. When children watch pornography, a distorted mindset can be created. Their body image can be very detrimentally affected, and the way they create relationships will be harmed.
