The Guardian has an excellent piece by Julie Bindel about sex tourism which ties in with the Channel 4 programme My Boyfriend the Sex Tourist (4oD link : C4.com link) made by director Monica Garnsey. Garnsey's approach to the subject has been to take the women's point of view as the starting point in examining global sex tourism. The first part looks at "a Venezuelan resort where largely desperate men go to have a holiday with a local prostitutes who act as their girlfriend" while part two looks at prostitution in Thailand and the way that girls use it as a way to support their families.
