Why Are Older British Woman Seeking Young Gambian Men? | Absolute Documentaries

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 is deplorable that the country is so poor that the men see this as a way out. However, to my mind these men (all the guys interviewed were definitely adults) who decide to form a relationship with an older European woman in the hope of a better life are still better off than the little girls in Thailand or Cambodia who are sold into sexual slavery as children and have no choice at all - and white men of all ages have been taking advantage of that situation for decades. 😢 Really thought-provoking and interesting documentary!
