Lieber AIDS statt Hunger???

Hier die ersten Zeilen des Artikels:

By Mary Karugaba

GIRLS in Northern Uganda would rather risk HIV/AIDS than go hungry, Ronald Kalyango of the Department of Women and Gender Studies at Makerere University told Parliament yesterday.

Girls as young as 11 were engaged in commercial sexual as a means of survival, he revealed.

"I would rather die of HIV/AIDS because through sex I can at least get sh500. With this, I can buy basic commodities like salt, soap, clothes and sanitary pads," he quoted a 17-year-old girl from Lira as saying.

Kalyango added that some girls were offering sex for as little as sh200, while others would marry a boy who possessed only sh5,000, believing he was a "rich man".

Ist das nicht heftig? Erst recht, wenn man bedenkt dass 1 000 USh etwa 50 Cent sind!"
