Sexual harassment

In today's world we are proud to recognize the equality that has been acknowledged between age, gender,sex and race. Women are  treated as equals with men. Today, women are  liberated from their traditional roles as housewives. In the developing countries, thousands of females are forced into prostitution for the sole purpose of benefiting men .Sexual exploitation, which includes sex tourism and sexual violence such as rape and sexual harassment has escalated throughout the 20th century and has become an enormous concern. Half of the total number of crimes against women reported in 1990 related to molestation and harassment at the workplace
Today, slavery is defined as a "social and economic relationship in which a person is controlled through violence  and economically exploited…sex trafficking is a modern day form of slavery. The government does not help women who are in prostitution as it generates a lot of profit which help in paying off country debt. The governments convince themselves, and the public, that they help facilitate women's employment opportunities and statistics by legitimizing prostitution.
