Cambodian Love Huts | National Geographic

NB: Even within the confines of Cambodia's diverse cultural mix the notion that Cambodian women are "sexually repressed" appears as remote or far-fetched as the sexual practice of this particular tribal community on the fringes of the country's mainstream culture. It's about time 'Westerners' stopped envisaging the rest of non-Western world in their own image!
