The Growing Phenomenon of Inter-generational Female Sex Tourism. - Polidicks

[quote] The markets for prostitution have expanded rapidly since poorer regions in the Caribbean, Asia and Africa have become popular with well-off tourists from the west in recent decades. Expressions such as “sexual paradise” and “fantasy Island” are bandied about and these places turn into notorious hot spots for sex tourism. In the Caribbean and Africa, a racist mythology prevails, with jokes about black male sexual prowess and penis size, perpetuated by the beach boys themselves because it’s good business. The stereotypical image of the sex tourist is a western man who travels to Thailand or the Philippines to pay for sex with young women and children. But in the past three decades the numbers of women travelling primarily for sex with local men is thought to have increased significantly, according to an investigation by Reuters. The practice has become less stigmatised and tour operators even add thinly veiled references to sex tourism for women as a marketing strategy.

The parts that try to paint wealthy white women paying for sex with impoverished black men less than half their age as victims is fanciful, but beyond that it's an interesting piece.

My ex's mother did that in Tunisia, so... yeah.

[QUOTE=obdob;42046185]That's not a stereotype i've ever heard of[/QUOTE] Those countries are notorious for having young prostitutes, a lot of people go there so they can have sex with 13-15 year old girls.

I for one am very proud of feminism finally bringing us equality in sexual exploitation of poorer countries, the iniquity was almost unbearable.

That's real fuckin' creep. I feel gross just reading about it.

It's a loveless marriage, but works out well for both parties. The thai girl gets a first world citizenship and the needs of her family back home provided for her, and the businessman get's a wife and possibly kids.

Besides that millions of teenagers are kept as prostitute slaves and that's the real issue because our lonely "buisinessmen" (omg) are funding it.
