Background of Bacha Bazi

Young boys between the ages of ten to eighteen are forced to sell their bodies and their dancing skills to meet their family's financial needs. These young boys are called Bacha Bareesh, or beardless boys, and the practice itself is called Bacha Bazi (playboy). Powerful Muslim men target handsome boys, make them dress up as females, wear makeup, and dance at men’s parties. Some of these boys are taken from their families in the promise of work, education, or a better life. Mostly their families are not aware of the fact that they are sexually exploited as sex slaves.

These boys were passed around after parties among powerful Islamic men for their sexual gratification. When these boys reach the age of nineteen or when their beard begins to show, they are released by their owners.
