šGoogle: āBacha Baziā¦ā
Literal translation: āboy for playā
This happens when women have so little rights, itās looked down upon to be āentertainedā by them. They see women more like pet fish, who arenāt even allowed to leave the house.
Since women canāt leave the house they resort to forcing young boys to be their s*x toys/objectsā¦
In Afghanistan today, in the midst of war and endemic poverty, an ancient tradition ā banned when the Taliban were in power ā has re-emerged across the country: Many hundreds of boys, often as young as 11, are being lured off the streets on the promise of a new life, many unaware that their real fate is to be used for entertainment and s*x. With remarkable access inside a s*xual exploitation ring operating in Afghanistan, an Afghan journalist investigates this illegal practice, talking with the boys and their masters, and documenting how the Afghan authorities responsible for stopping these crimes are sometimes themselves complicit in the practice.
