However, several of these end in sexual intimacy. They present themselves for service to women who may require their help. Many of these sex prostitutes would prefer to be regarded as escorts or companions, providing companionship for these ladies who are lonely. They are known to be very persistent with securing their female tourists.
In Gambia, Gigolos, aka Bumsters, could be waiters, taxi drivers, holding a menial job or just plain waiting on the tourist arrival for business. New websites have even sprung up to make gigolos more accessible and local rich women have explored the services of the male sex workers too. It is not uncommon that old white ladies travel to Africa during getaways or vacations. But of all the scenes that might come to mind, having a wild night with a male prostitute might be farfetched. One of the most common reasons non-Africans visit Africa is its tourism and wildlife.
