In some cases, the captor beats the woman to cause a miscarriage or to encourage the woman to get an abortion. § Scars and bruising-The sex slaves are beaten and tortured which causes bruising and scarring. Also, some captors may use electric shock to torture the sex slave, which also causes scarring.§ Sexually Transmitted Diseases-Sex slaves are often forced to have unprotected sex which leads to the transmittal of STDs. § Underweight-Sex slaves lose a lot of weight, enough to actually put them in the danger zone of being underweight. This is because they do not have access to as much food as they need or as often as they need. In some cases, the sex slave is too traumatized to eat. · The teacher will then explain that being a sex slave also has severe mental health side effects as well, such as:o Post Traumatic Stress Disorder-PTSD is caused by any overwhelming life experience. It occurs especially when the situation is unexpected or uncontrollable, as in sex slavery. People that suffer from PTSD remain in psychological shock from their trauma. o Low Self Esteem/Suicide-Low self esteem is caused from all the verbal and physical abuse that occurs while being enslaved, and in some cases the sex slave gets so low that they take their life. o Depression-The events that occur while being a sex slave cause people to become depressed. Depression causes a person to feel sad, empty, and lifeless.o Guarded/Angry-If sex slaves are rescued, they have a lot of anger built up and wonder ‘Why me?’ This anger is often taken out on those closest to them. Also, the sex slave becomes guarded and untrusting towards others.· After going over this material, discuss the options these victims have to get help:o Talking to a professional, seeing a doctor, talk to family and/or friends, etc. · The teacher will break the class into groups of 3-4 students.
