The lure of cyber pornography and teenage/college prostitution to young girls is at an all time high. It is sad to see promising young coeds fall into the cracks for the quick bucks offered by cunning entreprenuers of the internet adult entertainment industry.

I am Aunica Simmons. I have a mission: I too, almost fell into the trap. Peer pressure, good money, the feel of being independent and in control, and the ego boosting high for being a desirable sex creature, etc. Luckily my faith was stronger than what the temptation offered. So I started "Mission Teens", an educational program and seminars to educate teens and young college girls about the facts and pitfalls of this industry; to prevent them from getting involved in the first place. I have interviewed many college girls who have posed for these sites and many who contemplated on doing so. These are everyday girls who seem to be out of their characters to do such things but are doing so because of the appeal this industry offers to them. Sad...

Age of Innocence:
You've seen the banners, you've seen the ads. Below are just a few of the most popular ones that most girls will submit photos to. I have referenced these banners/sites to discuss them in detail. I have met some of the girls that submitted their photos to the site(s) and amateur photographers who recruit girls for these sites. Most are young, pretty and mature yet innocence and inexperience is written all over their faces. Some have barely even shed their baby fats and are posing for masturbation, fetishes, lesbian acts, teens on teens, lesbian acts, orals, etc... Sad but true: most of their parents don't know they are doing this.



I recently travelled to Europe to spread my mission across the Atlantic. The industry is more organized over there. I visited a studio (below) which has glamourized pornography to a new level, calling their girls "photo models" and are offering not only photos but also video clips of the photo sessions. Girls willingly want to be selected and are honored to be "photo models". At any given day there will be a line that forms around the block of some of the most beautiful eastern European girls I have ever seen. If I didn't know any better, I'd think that the line was an audition for Miss Universe. As expected, I was shown the door the moment I handed out my flyers. ... shame, shame, that such exotic beauty is exploited in this way. Here are more examples of the banners in question:







In all honesty I don't know why girls do this. These sites don't make any money! Most people get into the sites for free by signing up to get a membership, viewing the site for a day, then cancelling the subscription! FREE. I suppose the basic economics is supply and demand. There is a demand for this therefore there is a supply. We cannot control the economics; We can only educate so they never fall for the trap in the first place. Mission Teens is both: education and rescue. I am an advocate of this "rescue" program and I believe that one day women will regain the respect that they so deserve.

But all is not in vain. Our dedication and committment to this program have gained us many many volunteers and supporters from the government sector and some fortune 500 companies. We were instrumental in closing down several barely legal and lolita sites. Mission Teens is far from being a household name but slowly and surely, we will get there. We need your help. See below on how you can help.

More gimmicks:
Some girls in the site have started their own websites to promote themselves and their photos. By doing so, they increase their earning potential thru commissions from signups thru their websites. I was able to track several sites and met with some of these girls in person. Surprisingly, most are very well educated, open-minded, eloquent and spontaneous. Once again, not the kind of girls you would normally expect to do porn. A couple have become my supporters and spokesperson. All but one agreed to take down their sites. The best educators are those who were on the frontline.

Jenny Pishki is now a supporter and a spokesperson for Mission Teens.
Barbara Baines is now a supporter but insist on keeping her site.
Emily Grimaldi is using her site for therapy but will support us financially.
Judit Prakenesh met with me in Budapest and Seattle. Agreed to take down her site.
Sveta Buratko met with me in DC. Will support the program and help in clinics.
Radka Anakova met with me and Sveta in DC. Undecided, but will remove her site.
Linda Mehta very bright spunky gal. I spoke with her on the phone. Undecided.
Sarah Roble volunteer and educator. Have taken down her site.
Heather Helles undecided but have taken down her site.
