I apologise if what I said was taken in any way disrespectfuk as I didn't intend for it to be in any way. In regards to the sex tourism and sex holidays, I fully agree that is different from love/romantic endeavors, but what I want to indicate is sadly, many western women do give a bad name to the rest by the way they act and conduct themselves when visiting these countries (by this I mean those women who DO sleep around with the young men, who dress provocatively or inappropriately and allow themselves to be played the sugar mama). While it doesn't mean that it is right or fair, many low class Mena men and guys (I say guys bc many cannot even be considered men in my honest opinion lol) then feel in their warped sense of reality that all western women are subject to be handled this same way, and the sincere Mena men sometimes develop a wrong perception and stereotype of western women as loose, crazy and uncouth. Which of course is wrong same as with any type of prejudice or stereotyping, but something just to be aware of when dealing with them. Even those who are classy genuine and well intentioned may have deep seated beliefs that are incorrect that may need to be disproven as it's possible the only western womem they may have had direct contact with in the past may have been these classless types who are undoubtedly just as classless and uncouth in their home countries.

Hope that makes sense!! Regards, Jordana
