What would you feel when someone of your same gender would like to have an intimate relationship with you? Would you give him/her the chance to do so? Or would you be close-minded enough not to do such? Or would be brave enough to...

Culture as a way of life. In my place, in my country there are many foreigners that come here from different places in the world. Often, they came here for vacation because there are many beautiful beaches here. Also some of the...
