Sex Slaves

[Selliah]

With all of the publicity in the press lately re the underworld of sex trafficking and that many of the AMPs are housing sex slaves...do we ever consider we (including myself) may be perpetuating this underworld activity by frequenting these parlors? I am no moralist or a "goody two shoes" but as I reflect on the AMPs I've visited, I suspect that may be the case. Many of the AMPs that I have in the past have visited I have noticed the ladies eat and sleep on the premises (a possible indicator). The "Texas Monthly" ran a large article on this trafficking noting all of the major urban hubs, including San Antonio, are replete with sex slaves involved in this sex traffic. In that I can only suspect this is the case, I don't know what to do about it except stop frequenting these parlors.

I only know of two full service massage parlors in the San Antonio area that might fall in to his category. Most of the girls working at the non full service places are just trying to make money. They do not have the language skills to work in most regular work places. So they work where they can to make a living. They live in the establishment to save money. Some of the owners actually charge them to live there which is BS. Once their English skills improve they move to regular jobs or open their own massage establishments. The work is fatiguing and a lot of the clients have poor hygiene which makes the job even harder. Some clients are also abusive, thinking that the money they pay gives them special rights. The ladies do not like what they do but economics rule their lives.
