Men have been exploiting women for profit forever.....this is what really makes me sick.

Fact check, even historically speaking most brothel owners are women. In ancient times it was temple priestesses not the priests that ran the bordello rites and if you check the rolls of your local prison you'll find far more women doing time for pimping than men.

I know it's a fun narrative to think it's big ol mean men doing the exploiting, but it's not factual.

Male pimps are more physically violent there's far fewer of them, female pimps work mostly with psychological abuse and there are far more.

Even look at who does the arranging in cultures where arranged marriage is the norm, generally it's Grandma and the aunts.

When speaking of pimps, here's your stats:

About 85 percent of the pimps interviewed were male, and 66 percent were African-American. They said that racism is prevalent in the sex trade (like pretty much everywhere else). Several pimps said that white women were more valuable than non-white women"

From this site: http://www.attn.com/stories/4943/what-pimps-look-like-in-2016

When we're talking about the owners of camgirls, porn production movies, etc. the majority are male. However, with the internet, more women are taking on roles as director, or just exploiting themselves. The camgirl operations take a huge percentage of the profits, though, and these sites are male-dominated.

That's not a statistic, that's a survey.
It was conducted by a Think Tank in Washington DC called the Urban Institute which is headed by a well known Feminist and included data from 8 major cities.

Beyond the source and it's methodologies being suspect, the fact remains the demographic breakdown of pimps exactly matches the demographic break down of inner cities in USA, ergo the title could just as easily have been what do inner cities in the USA look like in 2016.

This is why you need to look at the conviction rates.
