FAQ
Real love will NEVER ask you to sell your body. Even if your partner promises that they love you and wants to spend the rest of their lives with you, showers you with gifts and affection or takes you to nice places, it is NOT LOVE if they are manipulating your romantic feelings and attachments to profit from your abuse.
Someone who truly cares about you will not nudge, ask, or demand sexual intercourse with another person. You are the one who decides what happens to your body, and no one can take that right away from you. You deserve better!
"Romeo Pimp" is a slang term used for people that pretend to have romantic feelings for someone, but after gaining their trust and affection as "girlfriends/boyfriends," force them to engage in sexual or sugar dating activities with others.
"I want us to get married, but I have a lot of debt. If you agree to do sex work just for a little while we can pay it off faster and can be together forever."
"If you really love me then you will send me some nude pics. It's normal for couples that love each other."
"If you don't do what I want, I'll leave you."
"You are hated by your family and friends, so if you leave me, you will be alone. If you agree to do what I ask then we can be together."
If you are under 18, your romantic partner is committing a crime. He/she is pressuring you to sell your body and exploiting you for prostitution. This is illegal under the law. Under the law, you are a victim, and your partner is guilty of committing a crime.
No. If you are under 18, you are a victim. The person who paid for the sex act is at fault for not verifying your age.
If you are under 16, it is illegal to have a sexual relationship with another person. If you are 16 or 17 years old, you may legally consent to a sexual relationship with a romantic partner that is not more than 5 years older than you.
However, because of the many risks involved in sexual relations, it is strongly recommended that you wait until you are an adult! It is best to wait until you are in a committed long-term relationship with a partner that will never pressure you to do sexual things.
There are so many risks! For example:
- The person paying you for sex could make secret video recordings and threaten you to do more extreme things.
- You could become pregnant.
- You could get a sexually transmitted disease that can lead to serious illness or death.
- You could be strangled, injured or killed.
Your life is very important and valuable! You should have a serious discussion with your partner and if he still insists on selling his body, you should end the relationship. If he cares about you, he will not ask you to sell your body.
Delete the image immediately and ask the person not to send you the image again. Nude images of minors are considered “child pornography,” and it is illegal to keep child pornography on your phone.
It sounds like you are a victim of online sextortion and this person is committing a crime against you. Do not pay money or send images to the offender. Please contact us anonymously for more advice.
No, you, as a minor, are not at fault. You will not be legally punished for agreeing to send the photos or videos.
No! Please don't put yourself at risk, not even once. Your life is far too valuable. There are many risks involved in selling your body, even just once. Do not compromise - you deserve better!
