In winter, a tourist woman’s fancy lustily turns to thoughts of sex.
By the thousands they descend on the Caribbean every year, women driven by one urge: to spend a week or two sleeping with local "beach boys" and paying them back in drinks, meals, gifts, and cash.
And it is Quebec women — with reputations as financially generous and uninhibited — who are among the best established in the island flesh trade.
Sex tourists, they’re called. Or as some prefer it, "romance travellers" looking for "love" and a little tenderness in the tropics.

But sex with the locals isn’t without drawbacks or controversy.
The most obvious is money: according to a couple of studies in Jamaica, it can cost $20 to $30 for an hour of sex, or $150 for a full night that includes oral sex (usually seen as demeaning by the island men). Second, some tourist women have reported that Caribbean lovers are over-rated, dulled by drink or dope; others can be chauvinistic, domineering, even violent.
