Oct 23rd, 2009 at 10:30AM: "No sex please, we're British." That old joke has been proven wrong by a new medical study that found British backpackers in Australia are picking up more than just short-term partners; they're picking up infections that they spread around Australia and back home. A survey of 1,008 backpackers at youth hostels in Sydney and Cairns revealed that 24 percent of British backpackers had unprotected sex ...Click on a label to read posts from that part of the world.

British backpackers spreading sexually transmitted diseases
Oct 23rd, 2009 at 10:30AM: "No sex please, we're British." That old joke has been proven wrong by a new medical study that found British backpackers in Australia are picking up more than just short-term partners; they're picking up infections that they spread around Australia and back home.

Oct 16th, 2009 at 4:00PM: digg_url = 'http://digg.com/odd_stuff/Brothel_In_Berlin_Gives_Rebate_On_Sex_If_You_Come_On_Bike'; The travel and hospitality industry has tried so many ways to go green – from trying to wash fewer sheets and towels to using organic products in spas – that you might start to wonder if it's running out of options. Well, if that is a concern, it's probably time to look to the world's ...Flight attendant sues Oprah over sex allegations
Oct 13th, 2009 at 3:30PM: A flight attendant who used to work on Oprah's private jet is suing for more than $300,000 in damages, claiming that allegations that she had sex with the pilot are false. The story is, as these stories usually are, convoluted and filled with he-said-she-said contradictions. The skinny is: attendant Corrine Gehrls supposedly had "sexual contact" with the pilot outside his cockpit while Oprah was ...Denmark: the land of promiscuity
Sep 17th, 2009 at 12:00PM: Denmark promotes promiscuity?! Well, that's the accusation that caused the country's tourism agency to yank an ad from YouTube. The country, which has a reputation for being a bit more open than we're used to seeing in the United States, used a three-minute video clip to promote the destination, but featured a blond woman and an infant, claiming the latter came from an encounter with a foreign ...Aruba's Westin Resort offers $300 for your baby
Aug 29th, 2009 at 12:00PM: I can understand the idea of a babymoon, a vacation taken right before a new baby is born. Enjoying one last (for a while anyway) trip before your life becomes a crazy blur of diapers and late-night feedings almost seems medically necessary. But taking a vacation with the sole purpose of getting knocked up - a procreation vacation - well, that sounds a little too "desperate marketing ploy" to me. ...Sex Tourism becoming increasingly popular with older women
Aug 15th, 2009 at 2:00PM: digg_url = 'http://digg.com/travel_places/Sex_Tourism_becoming_increasingly_popular_with_older_women'; When you think of a "sex tourist", you probably think of a dirty old man in Asia, molesting young boys. As it turns out, these filthy old men now have some competition.
International organization "Defense for Children-EPCAT" is sounding the alarm bell for a disturbing new trend in the world ...Galley Gossip: The mile high club - a question and a story

There's a question I'm always asked whenever someone finds out I'm a flight attendant, a question that never ceases to amaze and simultaneously makes me cringe regardless of how often I hear it, a question about you guessed it - the mile high club.
...NYC best city for singles (if you own a computer)
Aug 2nd, 2009 at 2:00PM: Looking for love lust on your next vacation? Your next trip should be to New York, which has knocked Atlanta out of the top spot as the best city in the country for singles. And, why wouldn't it? You have more than 8 million people chasing their dreams, so the choices are endless. There's one of everything, so in one night, you could meet every flavor of scumbag available. But, there's an upside ...Sexologist has carry-on inspected, TSA keeps cool
Jul 19th, 2009 at 5:00PM: Robocop sets off alarms. Of course, this "Robocop" is the nickname sexologist David Steinberg has for an 8-inch solid brass sex toy. Even a TSA official could see that one coming. This device was stored safely at home, but Steinberg's bag of goodies still attracted inspector attention at the airport in Seattle.
For once, it may have been prudent to respond, "No," when asked if the security ..."Rule of 3" suffering in Thailand's red light districts
May 29th, 2009 at 6:00PM: The bar girls in Patpong, a destination for so-called "sex travelers," have a basic rule: three inches (duh), three minutes (duh), 3,000 baht (that's around $87).This year, they can add another "3" to it, one third. That's roughly how far tourism revenues are expected to fall in Thailand this year. A projected 35 percent drop means less business and less income in what is largely recognized as one ...Vancouver hookers get media training for Olympics
May 26th, 2009 at 5:00PM: A magnifying class will be held over Vancouver from February 12 to February 28 for the Winter Olympics, and Vancouver's prostitutes want to put their best feet forward. To prepare for the influx of business and – media onslaught – Prostitution Alternatives Counselling and Education Society (PACE) is helping the city's sex worker population understand what to expect.
The Canadian ...China's first adult theme park never able to open
May 18th, 2009 at 6:00PM: The first sexually explicit theme park to be erected in China will never welcome its first guest. The park was torn down because of criticism from public officials. In particular, the artwork was a bit much for the politicians' sensibilities.
Love Land, as the park was to be called, was scheduled to open in Chongqin in October. The park would have offered exhibits on sexual history and workshops ...Smut bust at Sweden's airport authority: 7 fired, 1 quit
May 6th, 2009 at 5:00PM: Sweden's airport authority had problems with its computer systems ... caused by porn. An investigation has revealed that LFV Group employees were passing the time on adult websites while at work. Seven have been fired, and one employee quit as a result. Particularly loathsome is the fact that some of these employees accessed at least one website with child pornography.
This behavior was ...Satisfy your lust in Baghdad (finally!)
Apr 20th, 2009 at 8:00AM: According to the NY Times, Baghdad is getting safer, and people are looking to have a good time (though, this does stand in stark contrast to the suicide bombing I reported a few weeks ago). So, if you find yourself in Iraq's capital, stop by a nightclub, order a drink and nail a prostitute. For the best results, go to Saddoun Street, where you'll have plenty of choices.
Or, you can dash off to ...Model's boyfriend puts the "bang" in Bangalore
Apr 6th, 2009 at 1:30PM: It always starts with a drunken model. Always. Cover girl Sarah Hannon was beyond furious when awaking to find her boyfriend, Daniel Melia, engaged in a "sex act" with the woman next to him. It sounds like he had a middle seat and liked it! Hannon fell asleep on a nine-hour flight from Bangalore to London, as anyone would hope to do on such a long flight. Oh, and having bent elbows with boyfriend ...Vacation comfortably in (only) your own skin
Mar 31st, 2009 at 12:00PM: Lost your shirt in the market? Thankfully, some destinations will provide service absent one. You won't need shoes ... or pants ... either. Nude tourism is on the rise according to some estimates, and the industry is pegged at $400 million annually. Ready to throw your vacation fund into the mix? Packing, apparently, is easy. Maybe you'll need some sandals or bring a book, and sun block is ...Porn industry disgusted by flight attendant side job
Mar 23rd, 2009 at 11:30AM: "Look, we all have standards," an adult entertainer familiar with the full- and part-time work of Ryanair flight attendant Edita Schindlerova told The Independent. "I think it's disgusting that she works for Ryanair. All of us here at Biggus Dickus Productions feel really let down by her. If only she had told us she worked for them, maybe we could have done something to help her. Now, she has ...Ryanair flight attendant moonlights in porn
Mar 22nd, 2009 at 11:00AM: When the crew yells, "Brace!" one Ryanair flight attendant probably looks for the cameras. London tabloid The Sun (NSFW) alleges that flight attendant Edita Schindlerova (hopefully under a shorter name) moonlights in porn – on video and the web. The sexy 22-year-old also makes an appearance in the airline's 2009 calendar. The sultry stewardess wore a bikini and a smear of grease in the ...US gov't: Americans should avoid Mexican hookers
Feb 24th, 2009 at 4:00PM: The travel advisory is back. An increase in violence has led the U.S.-Mexico border has led the U.S. State Department to renew its warning to Americans heading south of the border. But, this doesn't mean you should scratch Mexico from your list (I'm even heading down in a few weeks). You should just be careful. The announcement suggests that American tourists stick only to legitimate business and ...Mexico kissing ban gets locals hot and bothered
Feb 21st, 2009 at 1:00PM: PDA, (public displays of affection) are a way of life in many countries. Young lovers, often caught by the watchful eye of parents at home, use shared public spaces like parks, mass transportation and monuments to gain a degree of "public anonymity" and exchange a few amorous pleasantries. In most countries, this behavior is taken for granted - it's simply a way of life to make out with your lover ...
