Excerpt from The Johns:
Without man, there would be no demand. There would be no supply. It would not be profitable for pimps and criminals to stay in this business if never-ending platoons of men weren’t prowling the side streets in search of purchased sex. Male sex buyers who are willing to close their eyes and shell out $50 or $100 for a few minutes of physical bliss while deepening the misery of countless women and children.

The stark reality is that little will be done to stop this insanity until men start taking responsibility for their actions, until men realize that they are the problem, and that this global sex-slave calamity exists solely because of their insatiable demand and duplicitous behaviour. Yet invisible in most discussions, reports, and research are the men who use and abuse these women. They are the ultimate consumers of prostituted women. They are the crucial missing link.
