I could read a mountain of Fred Stripe's postings and could usually not find anything I agree with him about but in this particular case.... I do.Originally Posted by Fred Stripe
There used to be a 60's-something guy "George" who wrote about his adventures with a 20's something "exotic dancer" and he took quite a verbal lashing. Now, maybe it is because he did post pictures of his exploits or maybe he just fit the stereotypical profile of "getting his groove back" but I don't know for sure.
I like Leslie Chow's writing as I am somewhat of a writer myself and his way with words and phrases do conjure up some vivid pictures without even posting one but, what Fred said above, also conjures up some vivid pictures and I think mentioning them in the stories is not essential to the story being told.
I know that "sex sells" and it titillates a lot of travelers who do or wish they did what he writes about. My only problem is that I live in a small town in Jamaica where the residents are very protective of their young ladies and young men and (I believe) would be aghast and outraged if they read that thread.
As I said, I am not in anyway complaining or "hating", because I enjoy reading what he is writing. I only think more care should be exercised. When I go to an "action movie", I get up and get some popcorn when the obligatory and gratuitous sex scene is inserted and has nothing to do with the movie plot.
Just my own opinion.
Peace and Guidance
