Sex tourism
I live in a tourist area with a large population of gay men.....was at (of all places) a cafe this weekend and overheard several middle aged gay men talking pretty explicitly about their various trips. Apparently they all love going to places in the Middle East and Africa specifically to meet men and (from what one of them said) get fucked by huge cock.
One of them called it "sex tourism" - I had to laugh (especially thinking about what the DL would say about that).
Have you ever traveled anywhere solely for sex, or because you wanted to hook up with someone in that region or country?

Sex tourism has been a thing for decades. What it usually suggests is being able to go to a country to get cock or pussy or - at worst - underage kids for cheap.

No, but a BFF is from Bangkok and, welp. He's talked a lot about it, and I'm sure some of you whores have traveled to SE Asia with sex in mind.

R3 Yes, but you can get huge cock here too, so what they're suggesting about travel is that they can buy it way cheaper.

I got huge cock FOR FREE on my travels when I was young and sexy. And yes a part of many of my travels was enjoying the sex I found in these new contexts. Does that make it sex tourism. I think so.
For example Holland isn't all that fabulous as tourist destination but the sex and the cocks were excellent so I visited a few times. Took in the arts did bike tours and FUCKED MY BRAINS out with tall hung dutchman.

There's more to somebody than a cock. I guess because I'm not a size queen it doesn't mean much to me. But I don't want a micro peen either.

For 20 years every time I visited London, Paris, the Côte d'Azur, Ibiza, Tunisia, Egypt, Turkey, Italy.... I enjoyed SEX and sometimes romance, too.

The Middle East and Africa though? That suggests going to a closeted and $$poor country to take advantage of it.

No it doesn't. You have a very narrow viewpoint and seem provincial.
SOME people might go to cheaper countries to "take advantage of it" and "them". But not all tourists have this mindset. Many young dynamic gays jet around the world and have sex with exciting new people. From rich, to poor.
Also you are removing agency from the guys in those poorer countries. Some might be whores, such as one could find in Barcelona and Sao Paolo, and like the professional escorts in world capitals for traveling businessmen, they are willingly fucking sex tourists and doing very well.

Not technically, but I did arrange a trip to the West Coast so it coincided with a friend (whom I'd had sex with previously) also visiting. Sex was not had, but reconnecting was nice .

I used to live in LA, and had a bunch of wealthy older gay friends there who would regularly fly to Brazil for sex tourism. I thought of them when that gallery owner was killed by rough trade in Rio a few weeks ago.
I cannot imagine engaging in sex tourism--it seems so exploitative.

Traveled for sex tourism? No.
Had sex on my travels in other countries? Yes. Many hundreds of times at least.
Traveled to hook up with or have sex with someone in another country? Yes, I've had a good many transoceanic dates - and relationships. Sex is as much a part of travel as a carry-on bag, but outside of dates, I've never travelled to a place I didn't want to visit in its own right. I wouldn't go some place just because it was considered a sexual smorgasbord; the destination has to have appeal for other reasons.

I would absolutely go to the Netherlands for big Dutch cock as suggested above.
As much as I find Arab/Middle Eastern men attractive, I don't know that I would take a risk to go to a country unfriendly to gays (e.g. Africa or the Middle East) just for a good pounding.

Egypt's time in the sun was before 2000. After that, the crackdowns started. By the way, Tel Aviv was a gay party town throughout aughts. Plenty of Arabs to have fun with, for free. I'm speaking of sex tourism that is NOT paid sex with whores. Jordan and Lebanon are mostly OK. Ivory Coast was pretty cool until recently.

Sex tourism by Americans to Haiti was a thing since the 1940's and '50's and was thought to be contributory to the appearance of HIV in NYC.
A friend who worked for Pan Am told me stories of he and his coworkers flying to Port-au-Prince for the weekend to get fucked back in the 1970's. It's been a thing for a while.

Back before the internet there were travel agents who specialized in this. Sizemologists for the jet-set crowd.

Why the Middle East and Africa with some of the most virulent homophobia and desperate poverty in the world? I could think of less dangerous places to spread my tourism dollars and body parts.

The Middle East and Africa- they hate the gays but yet elders will still go out there and pay for young cock.
*Epiphany* That's why they hate us!

R13- People who can’t attract hot/ good looking guys in the USA would be the types most motivated to travel to Egypt 🇪🇬, India 🇮🇳 or Brazil 🇧🇷 to have sex with hot/good looking guys.

Mystified that Africa and the Middle East are destinations when there are so many gay-friendly or at least tolerant. Spain, Argentina, The Netherlands...

R28, the fantasy of getting plowed by.a 'straight' cock is what fuels eldergays flooding to Africa and the Middle East.
Other locations you mention, the straights can't be bought as easily and are more discerning.

As vividly described in Frédéric Martel's book "Sodoma" ("In the Closet of the Vatican").
I'm going to Vatican City in April. I plan to download Grindr* while I'm there, just to see it blow up.
*Have been in a committed relationship for years, honestly

Not officially, but having gay saunas to patronize when I am in Montreal, Japan or Europe is always on the agenda. I wish we had saunas like these in New York City. It is quite ridiculous that there are basically none in New York City. The saunas abroad are spotless, often serve food and beverages, and have a very affirming and social vibe.
