在过去的15年里，性交易获得了巨大的媒体曝光率，并引发了一场由美国福音派基督徒和激进女权主义者组成的不太可能的联盟领导的全球废奴运动（伯恩斯坦，2007，2010）。这种关注的一个不幸后果是，为性交易而进行的劳工移徙越来越多地被描述为性贩运，妇女不受管制的跨境流动被主流媒体和政府机构解释为性剥削和经济剥削、人口贩运，甚至是犯罪行为。《联合国关于预防、禁止和惩治贩运人口特别是妇女和儿童行为的补充议定书》和美国国会颁布的对应文书《贩运受害者保护法》所采用的人口贩运定义支持了关于移民和贩运人口的政治保守议程，其中重男轻女的重点放在妇女和儿童身上。这使得反卖淫运动得以复兴，白色奴隶制神话得以复活，Doeberg（1999年）在其关于性别问题和人口贩运的著作中对此作了解释。像Weitzer（2006，2007）这样的学者认为，反性贩运运动是一场反性女权主义的道德运动。其他人，如伊丽莎白·伯恩斯坦（Elizabeth Bernstein），则指出了由韦策（Weitzer，2011）分析的女权主义派别与福音派基督教组织（伯恩斯坦，2010）结成的联盟，并认为它们寻求维护特权，加强阶级和社会地位的界限。
In the past 15 years, sex trafficking has gained tremendous media exposure and triggered a global abolitionist movement directed by an unlikely coalition of American Evangelical Christians and Radical Feminists (Bernstein 2007, 2010). One of the unfortunate consequences of this attention is that labor migration for sexual commerce is increasingly depicted as sex trafficking and women’s unregulated movement across borders is interpreted as sexual and economic exploitation, human trafficking, and even criminal conduct by mainstream media and governmental institutions. The human trafficking definitions employed by the United Nations Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children and its counterpart issued by the United States Congress, the Trafficking Victims Protection Act, support a politically conservative agenda on migration and trafficking in human beings, with patriarchal emphasis placed on women and children. This has enabled the revival of anti-prostitution movements and the resurrection of the white slavery myth, as Doezema (1999) explains in her work on gender issues and human trafficking. Scholars like Weitzer (2006, 2007) have argued that the anti-sex trafficking movement is an anti-sex feminist moral crusade. Others, like Elizabeth Bernstein, have identified alliances forged by the feminist faction analyzed by Weitzer (2011) with Evangelical Christian organizations (Bernstein 2010) and argued that they seek to maintain privileges and reinforce class and social status boundaries.
