The emphasis on gender is simply a state of fact; most women are trafficked into this kind of work against their will, so she literally is a victim here and being executed for it. We all have emotions, unless you're a zombie you will feel for something in this world. You can not enact the "emotions" excuse for any article that tells a deeply troubling or terrible story or describes a terrible event happening that shouldn't happen.
No one is arguing here she's the user, she's the victim of trafficking. The quantity described comes from the backwards organization doing the executions to begin with, so it's irrelevant what the quantity is, it could be 50000 millenia worth of heroin, she has no choice to do this work. Basic human rights is an agenda we can all get behind, and I would certainly hope we push more of it into countries like Singapore to get them to stop abusing fundamental human rights
That's fair. If that were the case here, or if she had made any such claim, I'd agree the title would then be fitting. However, since it's not mentioned, I'll point out that you're making assumptions based solely on the headline, and hence proving my point about the wording influencing people in specific ways.
