    These are the same people who cry a river when they are scammed online or otherwise. If you treat people like commodities and tools, don't be surprised when they treat you the same. Imagine the situation in reverse, old Gambian men going to England and exploiting young English women. This documentary would have an entirely different slant.

    It happens in Kenya too. Brits, Germans and Italians come here for holiday, and pursue younger men/women, and even (unfortunately) underage girls. It's a sad sight to behold, but if it involves consenting adults it's their business. When it involves minors, that's just unacceptable.

      @@janellrr7395 Yes, some of them are appreciative and okay with the relationship, and depending on how big or small the age gap is, it works sometimes. However, many of them are doing it out of desperation to get out of poverty, often sacrificing their true happiness because it's not only about them, they have expectations from their families to get them out of poverty as well.
      There's a reason these tourists go to the poorest Asian and African countries for these sorts of relationships. It's because they know these desperate people will do anything for the promise of a better life. At least the "cougars" seem to go after 28-40 year old men. From what I've seen, the male tourists often go after 18-20 year old girls whose brains haven't fully developed, sometimes even younger than that.

      Not entirely. While the flockers may, indeed, be on a desperate quest for love by those incapable of loving - their protohuman counter-party is looking for: 1. Shag objects; 2. White shag objects; 3. An opportunity to dupe their white shag objects; 4. Cool factor. That's a lot more things they're after than just an opportunity to dupe the desperate hags.

    I lived in The Gambia for a year and used to visit the beachfront stretch around the Bungalow Beach Hotel and The Kairaba Hotel in 1995. This issue of old women coming from Europe to sexually "feast" on desperately poor locals (aka bumsters), is not a recent matter. Kudos to Seyi Rhodes for doing a decent and balanced reportage on this ongoing subject. By and large, The Gambia is a great tourist destination for people who are desirous of escaping from the cold wintry days of Europe and the rest of the world.

    I married a narcissist who is 15 years older than me, who used my young age and innocence against me. As much as I feel I was cheated out of my youth by his manipulation and abuse, I would never think to try to recapture my lost youth by stealing that from a young Gambian man. How horrible. There is no excuse for being a predator.

      Lol... I find it interesting.... Over the last 5 years, that's all I hear being used; narcissist. Nowadays, anytime a woman doesn't get her way, the other person is a narcissist lol

      Men are supposed to marry women younger than them because young women are easier to edify. You obviously picked the wrong man but relationships are reflective, were you the perfect wife? I think people need to stop blaming others for their misfortunes and start being more introspective.

    First of all, l Thank You for doing this interview. My Heart is saddened and My Prayers go up for Gambia and the People of Gambia. The real damage that is being allowed to happen to Gambia is that the Beautiful Black Men who were Divinely Designed to Head up the Family and the Beatiful Black Women who were Divinely Designed to be a Helpmeet to them is Truly but sadly being destroyed. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🥰💞

    Every relationship is "transactional" we are just so egocentric to admit it but it is what it is. We rely on each other and thats facts. I love the documentary,the host is amazing

      A transaction happens from abundance, that's the problem here. The transaction is happening from scarcity so its not genuine, it borders on exploitation.

    Very good and informative documentary. Another side of this is the Gambian women, many are abandoned by their husbands for a European older woman. And it is a disaster for a woman with children in such a poor country. I've tried to find the documentary I have seen on this issue to link here, but I can't find it. I want to thank the journalist for the way he meets people.

      Do y’all actually believe that those men abandon their women they get that money from those white women and share it with their families they just lying saying that they are not

    • @cmendy1809
      @cmendy1809 Год назад +30

      This is not true, I am Gambian and I can tell you that they not abandon there Gambian wife’s, the men have several relationships at the same time, and most of the time the Gambian woman knows about the white women, they are glad that the chance of money exists, besides that can Muslim men have up to four wives.

    • @maidsua4208
      @maidsua4208 Год назад +3

      Thanks for the information. I'm glad to hear that. I saw a documentary about that many men leaving their wives for older European women and that's the only reference I have. I have been trying to find the documentary but it has been impossible so far.

    • @mayhewfisher62
      @mayhewfisher62 Год назад +11

      Or I wonder how many men try to keep their original family as a "side" family after connecting with a European. Devastating, as you said, for the original family.

      This kind of thing doesn't just happen in The Gambia it happens here also and it really doesn't matter how old you are I was in my thirties and my husband was 10 years older than me and he left me for a younger woman it happens all over it's the times we're living in
