Preying On Young Boys | Pakistan's Hidden Predators (Full Documentary) | Real Stories

It's one of the world's most important Muslim nations. A nuclear power, ally to the west in the war against terror, and a democracy. But Pakistan is also a country in denial. Turning a blind eye to the sexual exploitation of many thousands of poor and vulnerable children It's one of the saddest and shameful aspects of our society. I must say that I am totally embarrassed by this. That have not really been able to protect them. It's going on everywhere, in the big cities or the small cities or towns. Everywhere this is happening. I've only had sex [with kids] twice. With two brothers. The first time I sold myself, I didn't have money. It's estimated that over 4 million children across Pakistan are forced to work from an early age due to poverty. Of these, up to 1.5 million live on the streets. With no home to go to. For the poorest kids in Peshawar, often the only source of income is picking garbage from gutters and waste dumps for recycling. Working up to 14 hours a day for a pittance. Aqeeb is 9 years old. Playing in a dirty, polluted canal might seem danger enough, But for boys like Aqeeb and his friends, there are other hazards they must face, every day.

I remember my shock when I saw this documentary some years back. The most shocking thing is the statistics showing that 30% of men in Pakistan see nothing wrong with child sex abuse. 30% is an extremely high number..

Also watch Afghanistan's Dancing Boys.

Hidden shame? We've known just how bad they are on human rights for years now.

So two men who love each other will be stoned to death but child rape goes unpunished.

I do not know if it's the truth, but a man whom spent a lot of time in Afghanistan told me once that locals in some province had a saying in line of : women are to be married, boys are for pleasure. It seems like a norm in some parts of the region...

The amount of shit they do the the non-muslims/non-sunnis there is insane, and not only do they not hide it, but the people support it.

[u/Mackinstyle]

Maybe some cultures are just objectively bad ways to operate a society.

[u/Spenbeck]

There’s nothing ‘hidden’ about it.

I watched this documentary for a class in college. Shit is disgusting, child rape is such an insanely prevalent thing in Pakistan.
