Chemsex and financial exploitation
Chemsex is a term that describes the use of various chemical substances, including drugs such as methamphetamine, MDMA (ecstasy), GHB (gamma-hydroxybutyrate), and ketamine, to facilitate sexual activity. It has become increasingly popular in some countries, particularly in the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.
The use of chemsex drugs can lead to a number of physical and psychological problems, as well as increasing the risk of sexually transmitted infections. Additionally, people who engage in chemsex practices may be more likely to experience financial exploitation. This is because people who are under the influence of drugs are more vulnerable to exploitation, as they may be more likely to engage in risky behavior, such as selling sex or engaging in theft. In addition, people who are under the influence of chemsex drugs may be more likely to borrow money in order to purchase more drugs, leading to a cycle of debt and potential exploitation.
There are a number of ways in which people can protect themselves from financial exploitation while engaging in chemsex. These include being aware of the potential risks associated with chemsex, having someone who can look out for the person’s wellbeing, and avoiding situations where money may be exchanged for drugs. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the laws regarding drug use, and to be mindful of the potential for financial exploitation.
