#ECPAT #ChildRights #EndChildSexualAbuse

Slang like "lover boy" dangerously romanticises manipulation and abuse. It conceals coercion under a veneer of affection.

Call it what it is: #ChildSexualExploitation.

Start using language that does not trivialise abuse. Explore the updated Terminology Guidelines: ecpat.org/terminology/

Children above the age of criminal responsibility who commit crimes need access to support, not lifelong stigmatisation.

Language can shape systems. Let’s make sure that language creates opportunities rather than hinders them.

This is not tourism.

It’s #ChildSexualExploitation, plain and simple.

Clarity in language leads to clarity in action.

🔍 Start with the Second Edition of the Terminology Guidelines: ecpat.org/terminology/

Children cannot consent to their own sexual exploitation.

Call it what it is: #ChildSexualExploitation.

👉 Explore the updated Terminology Guidelines and make sure your language protects, not harms: ecpat.org/terminology/

#LanguageMatters #WordsMatter #ChildProtection

It’s not “sextortion”—it’s sexual extortion.

“Sextortion” is a media shorthand that trivialises what is a profoundly harmful and coercive form of sexual exploitation and abuse.

#WordsMatter

A child subjected to sexual exploitation in prostitution isn’t “working”—they’re being sexually exploited.

Call it what it is. No more vague terms. No more victim-blaming.

Clarity in language leads to clarity in action. Explore the updated Terminology Guidelines: ecpat.org/terminology/

It’s not “child prostitution”—it’s sexual exploitation of children in prostitution. Every time.

The blame NEVER lies with the child.

Care about protecting children? Start with how you talk about it.

#ChildProtection

The phrase "child pornography" is inaccurate, harmful, and outdated. It suggests consent and undermines the criminality of the abuse.

Say it right: Child Sexual Abuse Material.
