Men Sold As Sex Slaves Today

African Men Sold Into Sex Slavery Found in Glasgow

By Michelle Garcia

At least two African men who were trafficked into Scotland to live as sex slaves were discovered by investigators, according to the Scottish Daily Record. 

The men are the first known male sex slaves brought into the country, according to the report. Typically, says antitrafficking advocate Julian Heng, African males are trafficked into Scotland for physical labor, and not sex. Approximately 700 women have been brought into the U.K. for sexual slavery. 

Of the two men, one was forced to take part in pornography, while the other was sold for sex. Both men were in their 20s and forced to stay in Glasgow against their will, lured there by the promise of work.
