byjoveimbeinghumble:radicallyaligned:jourjean:The Economist unironically be like if you work hard you can be the girl boss of the brothel empower women Yaaaassss!! This #GirlBoss can traffick her own young women now!!If you read the article, you’d learn: - the woman in question went to the brothel as a 12 year old, not realizing it was a brothel. She was trying to escape her current life of being raped, starved, and abused. - she tried to escape and was treated brutally for it - her goals became: to provide shelter and care for the retired prostitutes who had no one and nothing; to build a school for the children born in the brothel; and to stop the practice of trafficking underage girls - she helped several dozen girls escape the brothel over the years - she refused every offer to improve her position by buying girls - some men burned the brothel down at one point, and the women rebuilt it because they had nothing elseThere’s a lot of other horrible, messy stuff in there but it’s a far cry from the girlboss treatment. -- source link
