American guys (usually on vacation) simply pay for sex and that is it....Colombianos on the other hand pay for a relationship...they do almost everything with their prepagos that they would do with their real girlfriends or wife. And these relationships have a surprising about of acceptance in the culture here.

Sounds like a lot of Thailand mongers. I think many go for a girlfriend experience which makes no sense to me.

I don't a thing about Thailand.... but I know guys in Colombia that go for the wife experience....they actually live with their prepagos. jajaja

Quote:Telling people you travel to Southeast Asia, China, or Eastern Europe to date or have short affairs with exotic and attractive women (in part because you find women at home less attractive) may raise some eyebrows, but you won't conjure up the same images of paedophilia and human trafficking that you will by saying "I'm going to the Philippines to fuck prostitutes."

Even without it's associations with slavery and child molestation, paying for sex in the West will still have the word "loser" attached to it, because it's assumed you're paying for it because you can't get it any other way.

You tell anyone that you go to Eastern Europe or SE Asia to meet girls they will straight up assume you are a sex tourist fucking prostitutes. This is what people think happens, they don't realise you can go to these and have sex with normal girls. They have all these crazy ideas in their heads that all the women in these 'poor countries' are prostitutes, gold diggers or passport hunters. and only sleep with Western men for monetary exchange. I've found there's no point in trying to convince people otherwise.

Back when I was an expat in Kiev ,2001, the line was easy to cross. Infact it was done often without effort. For example sometimes you didn't know the girl had a pirce tag until much later. Also it seemed all the kiev girls were for sale in some way or other. Either for money, food, passport. I wasn't a sex touist . However i had no issue letting the cab driver grab a 9 dollar whore for me when I left bar drunk and emptyhanded .These girls weren't professionals, they were normal girls. Often it justified them cheating on boyfriends,etc .Girls were cheaper than 2 mc donalds value meals.
Lately they are protesting sex tourists and it sems to include all foreign guys who wander clubs,bars, streets looking for girls. Regardless if for free,money or to become wives. Alot of guys gave us a bad rap. Stag parties don't help. Sad really. A decade ago it was considered normal and cool for foreigners to chase tail.

So what? And we and other cultures have the idea that most western women are male acting god ldigging heavyset whales . Did I forget anything?

Sadly, nowadays if you tell someone you're going to anywhere in EE or Southeast Asia (GOD help you if you mention Thailand), it's assumed you're going there to fuck hookers, regardless of whether or not you mention women. In many cases, they'll probably assume you're going there to have sex with kids.

I think thats only the american perspective though. Aussies who are obviously a lot closer to southeast asia are all over those countries, women, young dudes, couples, so the stigma isnt as strong. Also, i ran into swedish families and couples all over thailand.

Now the 45+ , fat, divorced american dude with no game on his first international trip is looked at as guilty until proven innocent when it comes to hookers.

I wouldn't say it's something particularly American. Here in Germany, the rumours also exist, though mostly in the form of jokes.

Also, I think this mainly applies to men travelling to these locations alone. Of course, no one will make comments like these about couples or families visiting Thailand or the Philippines.

Instead of being frustrated with being hated, I've now made it a goal.

Since anyone having fun is hated, my goal is to be hated by the EE people when I'm in Murka, and hated by Murkans ( especially the MurkaWhales) when I'm in EE.

No one will ever call a women going off travelling to 'poor' countries by herself a sex tourist even though they are often having more sex than anyone. In South America it was particularly true, I knew tons of girls who were getting fucked every other night by local guys and when it wasn't local guys it was other tourists.
