Call 2 Action - Removal of Child Sex Dolls

https://www.facebook.com/events/556991927709980/

Last Friday I discovered that Chinese companies were selling sex dolls in the image of very young girls to a worldwide customer base. Complete with sexually graphic descriptions and pedophile reviews, the dolls were created to fulfill the lust of those seeking young children for sex. Realizing the power of Facebook and Twitter, I created a social media blast calling for the immediate removal of these dolls. Dedicated to the cause, hundreds worldwide joined the social media blitz tagging @dhgate on each post. Sunday morning DH Gate removed the products and committed their stance against promoting pedophilia. Huffington Post UK covered our cause in the Sunday morning edition, and that set off an unstoppable wave of international attention.Within two days, our concerted efforts achieved its goal and caught the world’s attention. Our campaign page was being sent to thousands! Our Facebook page received 400 new followers within a couple of days, and my phone buzzed non-stop with activity!

For the next few days we kept the pressure on other Chinese companies Alibaba.com and Ali Express, because the same products and more were being sold through their sites. Once they became aware, they pulled the dolls and issued a strong stance against the selling of pedophilia products on their site. A rep from Hong Kong called and emailed to follow-up.

Although the majority of the readers understood the mission, there were those who opposed our stand, wrote hateful comments and made serious threats! Despite their opposition we were firmly committed to protecting our children! Exhilarated and exhausted from the intensity of the week, I am so encouraged that the world responded! In the words of Margaret Mead, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”
