Not true. There are vast differences within western culture. Sexual mores are very different in the US date system, compared to the European system - for instance. It's also very different between the US country side and the city. Between higher class and lower class. Between artists and scientists - etc.
Every culture has mores on what's appropriate, and people who break those rules.
It is true that the rules are so different that to someone who hasn't grown up in them, the rules may seem to not be there at all. For instance, family has very little to say about who people get married with in the west, in most cultures.
One restriction that's very important is that sex has to be consensual: both parties need to agree, or the result is called rape - and punishable by law, even within marriage. In the US sex is by definition consensual if it involves one person under 16 (or so tv tells me). This means that any person over 16 who has sex with a 15 year old can be prosecuted.
Every western country (even the Netherlands) has laws against prostitution. These are usually enforced strictly where kids are involved - which is where the answer on child prostitution in Asia comes from.

And merely the place do all our technical digital products come from, for the main area? China and Japan. with out those imports, the Western international places does not have 0.5 of what they have, in technologies. that's a needed area of Western existence any further. And Japan, probably China, is earlier than the West with their technologies. What they have in Japan, technologies clever, isn't yet considered interior the US. cellular telephones case in point, are earlier than the US. there became a time while Westerners felt they have been extra suitable, and in certainty had the main magnificent to sense that way. the commercial Revolution placed the US earlier than different international places, in autos, planes, electronics, and so on. and the residing standards have been bigger. (extra suitable in that experience of the notice, not extra suitable as people) yet that has replaced. Now the East is turning out to be the commercial massive, and so the US and different western international places, are taking a back seat. i think of that if the worldwide lasts long adequate, issues will at last even out. As China and Japan the two become extra industrialized, the wages of workers and the widely used of residing will save increasing, and quickly, they too would be on the element usa is at now. there is data that wages are increasing in China, as a manner to maintain human beings working. Hours are being shortened and unions will become area of ways of existence. China has a great dependency on its exports, and so might desire to maintain workers happy as a manner to fulfill the call for of exports mandatory. So, while the money venture stages out, the enjoying fields will initiate switching back and stress, from East to West and back. Imports and exports will become extra worldly and much less placed in a single or 2 considerable spots.

I wish they'd instead address the prostitution and child molestation that takes place in their own backyards. Seriously...the world is just acting like it's not a big deal.

Once you get past the incest, pedophilia, coprophilia, necrophilia, bestiality, sado-masochism, bondage and discipline, auto-asphyxiation, and other goodies I would say not!
