My Mom Sold My Virginity When I Was 12

A Cambodian teenager whose virginity was sold to a man when she was a child has opened up about the horrors of the sex trade in her home country. Dara Keo, now 17, told Marie Claire that she was just 12 when her mother Rotana sold her to a 'rich, powerful man' because she was desperate to pay off her late husband's gambling debt.
