He has two businesses and works hard. Coupled with this he spends hours texting and writing to me so, if there are other women (and I honestly believe there are not)
Ive been flowing this thread with interest and just want to ask Leo a question. If your guy has 2 businesses how does he get the time to spend hours texting and writing to you???????.. Forvive me if I sound cynical but I just know the way it is in Gambia. Im 99.9% certain that, when he waved goodbye to you at the departures in Banjul ,he quickly walked across the terminal to the arrivals anxiously watching to see what other rich pickings there was to be had amongst the white middle ages ladies that were just arriving. |

A friend of mine actually saw a beach guy drop one girl off at departures and pick up the incoming girlfriend only 20 mins later!!!  It's a game! Also an easy living! Nice work if you can get it!!
The problem is how do you sort out the genuine guys from the ones like this?
SOME will be genuine......but can you trust your guy? |

Lets turn this on its head, how do the gambians sort out the geniune toubabs.
Many visits promise to support but once home do not bother.
How to tell a geniune Gambian, not in a bar take alchol out of the equation and see what happens. Also environment meet someone in there place of work is different from meeting them in your place of relaxation.
yes someone toubabs make it harder for other toubabs an interesting merry go round. |

i'm really surprised that people are actually giving this woman advice on what to do with her "young lover". really, how disgusting, its the same thing as condoning sexual tourism. i can guarantee you, about 90% that that boy is interested only in the economic gains he can have with this older white woman. why would a young handsome man, pass over the thousands of yound beautiful women of Gambia for an older, heavier white woman, i mean really! and no matter how broke she is, i'm sure he's even broker.
now a lot of you are going to say that i'm a bit too harsh, but lets be honest here, that's digusting! its exploitative, it doesnt matter how much "in love" she is or how much "in love" he claims to be. |

| i've already spoken my mind, however, everyone ran away from the debate like if you go on it, you'll get AIDS or something, everything i said i stand behind because what this woman is doing is wrong, another thread talks about how sex tourism is rampant in gambia and why its bad, and she's here asking for advice for what to do with her young lover. europeans come to africa, have sex with folks, and leave and they wonder why AIDS is rampant, well if you have condoned postitution in an area, disease will become a problem. plus the fact that women are doing this also, is ridiculous |

| Althought HIV/AIDS is comparatively low in Gambia, compared to southern African countries, the highest instance of HIV/AIDS is upcountry where few tourists ever go. So how does that explain your statement, Kasma, about tourists spreading AIDS? Hmm? |

i'm not saying that they do spread aids, i'm saying when people come to a country to be a sex tourist, they bring whatever they have with them and that's true. and i'm sure not all sex tourist are perfectly healthy or disease free, they're not. if aids didn't originate in gambia, somebody had to bring it in right? whether black or white, something brought it. also, comparing gambia to south africa won't do since south africa is many times bigger than gambia. |

Where did you get your facts from? Have you done a research on that?
Why are you defending prostitution by the way? |

Kassama, thanks. HIV/AIDS is certainly more prevalent per capita in southern Africa. Nobody knows why. And as a matter of fact I too think of the sexual health implications when I see the male tourists having strings and strings of local girls because I know they will not be using condoms. It's a timebomb. But it's true it's more prevalent upcountry. Again, I don't know why that should be.
Babylon, these facts are available for all to see on the web. Try the UN site. And why do I defend prostitution? Because I defend peoples right to make a living in any way they can and some smug judgemental litte western girl like yourself pointing the finger from the comfort of your comfortable life, well, why don't you try and really think about the realities of other's lives instead of appointing yourself guardian of the moral high-ground from your clearly ill-informed and inexperienced position?
And until you are appointed as the thought police, I will express whichever views I want to. |

Oh please, you´re starting to sound like your defending your own profession now, Is your life really that miserable?
I know lots of poor people who would NeVeR sink so low to sell their asses on the street, for them that is just not an option nomatter how hungry they are. You see, in many countries that is not a decent way to make a living and the ones who do it are considered outcasts. Now That is the reality. |

I read somewhere(??) that HIV is higher at the Basse end of Gambia because of the highway systems connecting Gambia to other Africa countries and the truck drivers and so on that pass by, using prostitutes and passing on their infections. Do you think there could be some truth to this?
Formby, I agree we shouldnt judge others unless we have walked a mile in their shoes. I would like to think I would never turn to prositution! But then I have never been in the sad position of not being able to feed my children. As a mother if my children were starving I might be tempted. Tourists using prostitutes is only the tip of the iceberg. Prostitutes exist the world over. They serve a need. Some of them are used and abused, but for some it is a life choice as a way of making easy money. Each case is different.
In Gambia there would be prostitutes even if there were no tourists.Also in Gambia an added factor in the spread of hiv is polygamy, because if a man is infected by a prostitute he has the potential to infect ALL his wives. ALso the quality of condoms available, and the ease of access to them (price wise) is an added issue, as is persuading a man to use one!!!!
In a perfect world there would be no starvation and poverty. Everyone would be in a happy and sexually fulfilling monogamy relationship. If this were the case we wouldnt need there to be prostitutes and no one would want to be a prostitute. BUT as we all know, the world is far from perfect.  |
