- Early pornography exposure escalates along a predictable on-ramp from magazines to videos to paid sex and trafficking participation.

Men Confess They Wouldn't Have Stopped Knowing A Woman Was Trafficked
- Several men in Buying Her openly admitted dark, criminal impulses and said knowing a woman was trafficked wouldn't have stopped them.
- Nolot praises their courage to speak because their testimonies reveal how childhood exposure shaped later actions.
