“Who are these women?” he asked the teens. “Whores,” a boy answered. There was snickering.
Soper asked what they think happened to the women. “They started really looking at the pictures, saying, ‘This one got beat up.’ And ‘This one looks like she’s on meth.’” He asked them to write the girls’ stories. The meeting went from boys laughing about the young women to them somberly talking about girls at their school who had gone through stuff like this. He teaches kids how pimps work, by preying on kids’ insecurities. Buying them nice shoes. Telling girls they’re pretty.
