Double standards never get too old to call to the carpet.

Let talk about a taboo subject: Women’s Sex Tourism . Sex on the beaches of exotic places.

Most of what follows in the blog was researched from other sites so I can't take credit for writing this post from my own experiences research or observations like in other blogspots.


Women’s sex tourism is especially popular nowadays.( women out number men in every country)  Sources state that about 600,000 women come to the Island  in the Caribbean Basin every year in search of men’s attention and to get their groove back.

Women’s and men’s sex tourism are two absolutely different phenomena. Women do not go to bars and sex shows to find new partners; they do not make sex tours as such infrequent events are organized basically for men. 
Researchers who studied the phenomenon of sex tourism among women at Caribbean resorts say that this type of a vacation is typical of middle age women either lonely or unhappy about their family life. 

While men choose Asia for their sex tourism, women go to Southern Europe (Italy, Greece, Turkey, Croatia and Spain), to the Caribbean Basin (Jamaica, Barbados and the Dominican Republic), Genoa and Kenya in Africa, Bali, Indonesia and Phuket in Thailand to enjoy sex tourism. Nepal, Morocco, Fiji, Ecuador and Costa-Rica are less popular. Thailand, the Dominican Republic and Cuba are the countries that are best suited for sex tourism of both sexes, male and female. 

Seventeen percent of the Jamaican population lives below the poverty line; tourism and farming are the only sources of income there. The airport of Montego Bay is crowded with young men when flights from Canada or London arrive. They come there to meet “milk bottles who must be immediately filled up”. This is how they call foreign women with white skin. Locals say that middle age women come to the place in search of “a big bamboo” as the opinion of the sexual power of swarthy men is widely spread all over the world. 

Lesbian tourism is just emerging. However, there are several places where women can enjoy it: Mytilini in Greece, Bangkok and Pattaya in Thailand and Bali. 

Sex tourism is popular in the third world countries, and the services are quite affordable there. Jamaica travel experts say that the tariffs are meant for the middle class: $30 per an hour and up to $150 for one night. In addition to the tariff, gigolos would love to receive money, watches, shirts and cigarette lighters as presents. Women from the Canadian capital Ottawa are known as the most generous presenters. 


Women who enjoy sex tourism are given various names in different countries where they go: Shirley Valentines in Britain, Long-tails – in the Bermudas, yellow cabs – in Japan, milk bottles (blondes) and Stellas (brunettes) – in Jamaica. In Barbados, female sex tourists are said to be having “the Canadian secretary syndrome”. 

Men serving female sex tourists also have their names in different countries: kamakia (harpoon for fishing) – in Greece, galebovi (seagull) – in Croatia, sharks – in Costa-Rica, Kuta Cowboys and pemburu-bule (hunters for whites) – in Bali, Marlboro men – in Jordan, bomsas or bumsters – in Gambia, sanky pankies – in the Dominican Republic, grinda hunter – in Ecuador, brichero – in Peru. Men of the Dominican Republic enjoy the reputation of the most professional gigolos.However Jamaica may prefer to call their Boyz "Jamaican Artist." 

For many years it has been considered that sex tourism suited men only. Men just had to make the arrangements and they would have a bomb shell in their hotel suit waiting for them. But as it turned out, middle age women who are not that fabulous as film stars but have quite enough money desire to have sex and enjoyment during vacations to take a rest from their husbands, children and home lives. 


Women’s sex tourism was first mentioned in the middle of the 19th century in the USA and Turkey. Americans liked to visit North American Indians and European women visited Turks to enjoy sex far from home. There were no sex travels just during the Depression, and the pause lasted until the 1960s. Just few brave women from England, France, Czechoslovakia and the USA went to India, Nepal and Thailand probably to enjoy sex with locals. 

Female sex tourism got a new spur together with the second wave of feminism and when tourism began to speedily develop in the 1960s. Canadian women were the first to travel in search of sexual adventures more actively. It is thanks to Canadian women that the Caribbean Islands and hot boys from Jamaica and Barbados grew incredibly popular. In the 1990s, female tourists from Japan and Taiwan joined them and went to the beaches of Bali and Phuket. 




Several years ago, two female sociologists from the USA questioned 240 women spending their vacations in Negril and at two similar resorts in the Dominican Republic. They found out that about one third (80) of them had sexual contacts with local young men during their vacations. At that, sixty percent of them agreed that probably the young men had sex with  them just to get money. All the respondents said they did not pay for the sexual services that men provided during their vacations at resorts. But many of the women explained that they paid money for sex as they treated it as economic aid to the resort staff or even the local economy. 

Some of the questioned women said they had started sex tourism by chance but loved to enjoy it regularly. Others say they love sex tourism not merely because of sex but rather because of the care and attention that local men give them. These women are even ready to pay for this type of temporary love.

With sex Tourism a middle age woman can have a younger man and not worry about it not lasting, because it is not LOVE, it is just sex.
Cougar guide for Older women younger men

A look at figures released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics suggests us lesser mortals are following the trend, with the proportion of relationships where women are at least 10 years older than their partner rising 23 per cent between 1996 and 2006. This year a survey by Prevention magazine found 55 per cent of Australian women had dated a younger man. At Fast Impressions Speed Dating, 'Toyboy Nights' have the highest match rates of any of their themed events. But is it really such a new phenomenon?

Times are a'changing
"Older women have had relationships with younger men since history began. But in the past only aristocratic, rich, famous or powerful women were able to do so and survive the condemnation from society.
a woman  married to a man 14 years her junior said  "With the advent of women obtaining economic independence, things have finally started to change." "I think it's becoming more acceptable as lifestyles change," adds Sydney-based Love Coach Carolin Dahlman . "Nowadays we all tend to live similar lives, unlike when our parents were young and there were clear gaps between the generations. These days it's OK to act young when you’re older. We have the freedom to choose what lifestyle we want."
Although the majority of us still follow the tradition of getting married, buying a house and having kids by a certain age, more and more are choosing alternatives. As a result, it's becoming more the 'norm'. But it's not just this acceptance that sees more women dating younger men.

"They seem more alive, vital, optimistic and enthusiastic. They’re not as jaded as older men. They adore their woman, cherish her, find her interesting. And they like to make love a lot. Women reach their sexual peak later in life, so it’s a good match.
The Prevention survey echoes this, with 29 per cent of women saying they are attracted to younger men because they have more energy and stamina. But the main attraction, according to 37 per cent of respondents, was good looks. Thanks to increasingly better living standards, older women can stand their ground in that arena.
"With better education on health, diet and fitness, and everyone living longer and healthier, women in their 40s, 50s and even 60s can still look youthful and feel great. And far from what they’ve been led to believe, sexual desire doesn’t drop off but maintains, just like it does in men.
