Is it true that in the Netherlands TV show children were handed as gifts as gifts?

In August 2023, a video diverged in the Russian-speaking Telegram channels, in which little girls take out from the boxes adult goods and begin to twirl them in their hands. We checked whether the descriptions are correct under such publications.

On a 32-second video attached to the posts, masked girls alternately extract various sex toys from the boxes and try to guess why these items are needed (in Dutch there are versions of the “Rockbrush”, “Open” and “Fleeter”). As the description says, such gifts were handed to children on the air of the TV show.

With a similar commentary, the video spread through resources such as "Mriya","Zen","VKontakte","The main regional" And "YaPlakal". The news has gained particular popularity thanks to Telegram channels Topor Live (418,000 views at the time of writing this analysis), "Truha tin 18+"(340 000),"Veronika Stepanova"(319 000),"Observer"(206 000), Voblya (146,000) and "Bottle"(126 000).

The issues of sexual education of minors in the West and associated risks often attract the attention of Russian Media. Indeed, in many European countries there are sex education programs in schools, the main goal of which is to give minors all the necessary information so that the beginning of their sexual life is conscious and safe. In particular, in the Netherlands, lessons about sexual and reproductive health appeared several decades ago, schoolchildren visit them without fail in elementary grades (that is, from four years). As claims statisticson average, this practice does not reduce the age of the beginning of sexual activity, and in adolescents from the Netherlands, sexual debut occurs even later than in many of their European or American peers. However, the television show is not a school, TV presenters are not teachers, but sex toys-not an anatomical atlas, so the outraged reaction of users to posts with fairly conflicting personnel is understandable.

You can find the primary source of the video via a reverse search service service Google. How It turned out, the video was released by the Dutch public organization Free a Girlwho fights the sexual exploitation of minor girls. On the site of the organization It is saidThat more than 7,000 children around the world were saved by her efforts. For this, various methods are used - from the organization of the hot line to the placement of social advertising. The video, which spread in the summer of 2023, was released back in 2017, on the eve of the week of fighting children's prostitution.

IN original The video lasts not 32 seconds, but for more than a minute and consists of two parts. In the first half of the record, which dispersed along the rune, Dutch children were unpacking objects, the sexual subtext of which is not guessed. “Innocent fantasies for these girls,” the credits say. Suddenly, these frames are replaced by much more terrible: a hidden video of the sexual operation of a girl in an Asian children's brothel. “A terrifying reality for millions of other people,” the voice behind the scenes reports. Thus, the idea of ​​the creators of the video was to show the contrast between the two worlds and to call on society to pay more attention to the problems of dysfunctional countries, including the much smaller security of minors there. According to assessment 2013, more than 10 million people around the world were involved in children's prostitution.

Nevertheless, social advertising six years ago caused a polemic in the West, because shots with anonymous girls holding sex toys were not mounted. To this representatives of Free a Girl They answeredThat children's psychologists worked with all the children participating in the filming, and the script was carefully thought out. And yet the issue of admissibility of such a course, even for good purposes, remains open, and on YouTube channel The organization cannot be found.

One way or another, but the signatures with which a shortened video with girls distributed in 2023 in the Russian -language segment of the Internet (and not only in it) are incorrect. In the original, this was not a television show, but social advertising, and in its full version the emphasis was on the fact that it is unacceptable to ignore the sexual exploitation of children in some countries, while their peers live safely in others.
