IMHO, the main reason that sex tourism isn't OK for men is that a lot men seeking it are diddling little boys and little girls. Grown men or women seeking "a little action" with other adults seems to be a different issue -- tho' I'm afraid that women often dream of real romance ("A Light in the Piazza," "Summertime," etc) and not just "action." Of course, sometimes, the quest for either action or romance can result in tragedy -- like the still-missing-and-presumed-dead Natalie Holloway.

Not a good review. I guess I shouldn't count on this stuff in the land of dengue fever, eh? Okay, attacked by a tick? Not a good review.

Mosquitoes ate my face while I had the bandanna tied around my head and K got a tick actually under the sock. The bandanna is so pretty that one of my fashionable friends covets it, and the socks are made well enough. Still, I think it's a crappy product for what it purports to do.
