NORTH OF KABUL, AFGHANISTAN- NOVEMBER 22: A young Afghan Batcha Bazi (Dancing Boy) performs a dance in a private party on November 22, 2008 in a small city in the north of Afghanistan. A Batch Bazi is a young boy taken from his family to dance for male audience, the boys are often sexually assaulted and are kept like concubines until the age of 20. Officially the practice is prohibited but it has flourished recently due to the lawlessness of the country. (Photo by Ghaith Abdul-Ahad/Edit by Getty Images)
