Actually if anyone wants to see a great documentary watch 'Selling Sex in Heaven'. It is sickening to see the mentality that allows people in the west think that everything in this world can be yours if you have money. Human trafficking/sexual slavery/child prostitution is such a problem. Heck even in Canada here when I drive my GF to work it is sad to drive by the hood and see 60 year old men cruising up and down.

You are certainly off the topic of medical tourism, though you might consider that sex is an important aspect of health maintenance ... and as remarkable as it may seem to you, most people do wish to engage in sex beyond 59.

I guess you didn't notice my identity "no country for young men" when you cast your aspersions on "60 year old men cruising". Tut, tut, my PC child, age-ism once upon a time was one of the crimes like racism: verboten.

And by the way, according to wikipedia, prostitution is legal in Canada as long as it is a consensual business transaction between adults.

Next time you are sad to see those gross old codgers cruising, remember: what you get "free" today due to your youth and attractiveness (which might just involve the size of your ...wallet) might not come "free" when you are an old codger yourself. Start saving!

Finally, tolerance, offspring of Puritans. Concern with what goes on in other people's bedrooms, private or rented, has a whiff of totalitarianism about it.

What? LOL
I thought we were done wit the health tourism topic. Note you said,
"Medical Tourism Idea loses: 10 to 0.

On to the next idea.

Thanks for the feedback."

So I threw out the blurb about sex tourism as a joke/for a laugh.

When I went on to speak about 60 year old men cruising for sex in the hood in Regina, SK, Canada it was never about attacking the right of 60 year old men to have sex. I have no problem with men or women of any age having sex.

What I do object to is 60 year old men with grandaughters cruising the streets in my province looking to procure sex with vulnerrable children of aborigenal ancestry as is the case in Saskatchewan.

And yes I also do have a problem with men arriving by the planeload in inpoverished countries for sex tourism.

You on the other hand seem to be in favour of such practices as evidenced by your post. I would venture to say that many people would disagree with you.

And I am by no means puritan. If women want to do that in Vegas where it is legal in brothels, they pay taxes, receive checkups, fine by me. What I have a problem with is the exploitation of vulnerable women which is the sector that makes up the large majority of sex workers in my province.

and btw, I am 43. Not a youngster.

And if you must know, I do find something disturbing about a 65 year old man who would forsake women in his age bracket because he feels money entitles him to 18 year old Thai, Filipino, Cambodian , Cree women.

As to prostitution being legal in Canada, it is indeed. Communicating for the purposes of prostitution is not. Cruising is not and will get your car impounded in this province.

PdC,

I, for one, took your sex post as tongue in.......cheek. Just goes to show you that you never know what people will take seriously, neh? But we probably do agree that sex is very, very important. I'll bet people get sick or do bad things if they haven't enough of it. Probably hurts their self-esteem and is one of the root causes of....well, something bad. So isn't sex a fundamental right, one that should be guaranteed for all in a civilized society?

As to exploiting class differences, etc.....you know we are not on the same page. For example, I do not lose much sleep over paying a nana the prevailing rate (or a bit better) in Chile, rather I take it as I find it, at least within reason. However, even I draw a line somewhere. A freely consenting adult wants to charge for sex? OK, fine, knock yourself out. But most of what passes for the "Sex Industry" in places like Thailand seems to involve minors or out-and-out slavery, such as girls who were "sold" by their parents and cannot escape prostitution. I do not care for it or those who fund it, any more than I care for those who suck coccaine up their noses, and fund so much trouble in places like Mexico or Columbia, not to mention overburdening the healthcare system that I am evidently supposed to subsidize. Perhaps we actually agree on something beyond E-Bay adventures?

Will get back to healthcare posts in awhile on Obama thread. Some of the answers were so hum-drum bad that I elected to work on QuickBooks for mobile home parks instead. More entertaining and useful.

John Hyre, You ALWAYS Pay for Sex if You Are a Guy

PS: And for all you feminists out there, spare me the "sexist" label....the fact that I never never dated men made me a sexist from Day One.

We were off the topic of medical tourism, but our Canuck friend's post was too fun to pass up.
