Sexual exploitation
Sexual exploitation is an act or acts committed through non-consensual abuse or exploitation of
another person’s sexuality for the purpose of sexual gratification, financial gain, personal benefit
or advantage, or any other non-legitimate purpose.
The act or acts of sexual exploitation are prohibited even though the behaviour does not
constitute one of the other sexual misconduct offenses.
Examples of sexual exploitation include:
• Observing another individual’s nudity or sexual activity or allowing another to observe
consensual sexual activity without the knowledge and consent of all parties involved
• Non-consensual streaming of images, photography, video, or audio recording of sexual activity
or nudity, or distribution of such without the knowledge and consent of all parties involved
• Prostituting another individual
• Exposing another’s genitals in non-consensual circumstances
• Knowingly exposing another individual to a sexually transmitted disease or virus without that
individual’s knowledge
• Inducing incapacitation for the purpose of making another person vulnerable to non-consensual
sexual activity.
