updated links to people making the claims.

| Apr 24, 2012 at 8:23 | comment | added | Oddthinking♦ | Another confusion being made is the distinction in definitions (if any) between a youth resorting to individual cases of prostitution to get enough money to stay alive and being a "sex slave". | |
| Apr 24, 2012 at 8:20 | comment | added | Oddthinking♦ | This appears to be the report that Village Voice claim is the origin of the claim. I certainly agree that the information is presented in a confusing way. Pages 11-14, with a large cautionary note on page 10, seem to be the main source, with page 28/29 supporting (?) it. The latter explicitly only includes runaways out for longer than a week, undermining a Village Voice claim. | |

Corrected USA Today link (pointing to Google result, rather than direct to USA Today)

| Apr 24, 2012 at 7:58 | comment | added | Oddthinking♦ | I note that the quotes from USA Today and Real Men Don't Buy Girls campaign are not consistent, suggesting at least one of them are wrong. One says "today" and the other says "each year". As an analogy, compare this (fictional) example "Each year, 67% of adults waited in line at the post office." to "Today, 67% of adults are waiting in line at the post office." | |
