Women's Funding Network made a big boo-boo and used a bogus study to wage an assault on underage prostitution, and though the fight is a just one, the study was classified as intellectual guesswork by several independent officials.
Fighting for a good and noble cause is great, but make sure that you have the right numbers, my friends. Not doing so portrays sex trafficking activists as fools in a portrait that is already muddled and skewed. It's part of what I've said before...misrepresentation of the issue causes people to not pay attention. This issues isn't a single issue, there are many complex issues in of itself. Eh...I love when people guess. I also love when reporters don't double check their sources. Tisk, tisk.
Women's Funding Network sex trafficking study is junk science.
