No, I mean exactly what the word says. In Italy a few years ago, the legendary entertainer and radio and tv producer Gianni Boncompagni, who had dominated the listings since I was a child, was convicted and jailed for dozens of counts of indecency with minors. His defence was, quoting from memory: "If you run a popular TV variety shows featuring teen-aged dancers, you will be besieged by literally thousands of mothers and their girls, most of them very attractive, and literally every one of them more than ready to prostitute both her daughter and herself for the chance of appearing in prime-time TV. You would have to be a saint to resist the temptation."
