9 British women arrested over oral sex competition in Greece

[Tsontos]

ATHENS (Reuters) - Nine British women were facing prostitution charges after being arrested at the weekend for taking part in an oral sex competition in the Greek holiday island of Zakynthos, police said on Monday.

Six British and six Greek men, including two bar owners, were also charged in the incident, which took place at Laganas beach in the south of the Ionian island, which lies off the west coast of mainland Greece, police said.

The women, who came to the popular resort on holiday, had been paid to take part in the competition, which was video recorded and was to be posted on the Internet, police said.

The men were charged with encouraging obscene behavior.

In recent years, Laganas has established itself as one of Greece's most popular destinations for twenty-something holidaymakers and is known for its wild party scene.

Around 15 million people -- a fifth of them British -- visit the eastern Mediterranean country each year, drawn by its soaring summer temperatures, azure waters and sandy beaches.

Let the girls free!These policemen arrested them due to their envy because they weren't allowed to participate in this...competition.I hope the local prosecutor is open minded enough to drop the charges against them!Such champions should be free,not imprisoned!A potential sentence of these girls will damage globally Greece's image and would have negative effects for Greek tourism.What will think all the forreign women who plan to visite Greece? <If we have sex with a Greek we'll end up in jail>! Is this the best advertisement for Greek tourism? I think the Greek National Tourism Organization should award them with some kind of prize,like free vacations every year in Greece.

I believe that Greeks are harming their country and its tourist trade by encouraging cheap package tours targeted at the English.

Greece has had a lot of bad publicity, and while some might laugh and think all this aberrant sexual behaviour is funny, tourists (those who pay) dont.

Rhodes has paid for permitting exactly this type of behaviour. It's tourist industry has suffered. The same in now happening in Crete, today people still visit Crete, but if this stupid behaviour continues, it will go the way of Rhodes.

The same applies to all our islands. I'm tired of looking at bare English bottoms, and I am tired that our authorities don't do something about this behaviour.

Imagine what would happen if Greek tourists behaved like these hooligans in England.

I doubt that women tourists travel to Greece to engage in public oral sex competitions.

OK, some of them might come here to get to "know" young Greek men, but even these women won't be expecting to be treated like the cheapest prostitutes.

One of the funniest lines in the old Greek comedy films was by "Barba Giorgo) in a film with Jenny Karezi and Alexandrakis.

Jenny's rich, spoilt boyfriend is being sent to England to take care of his father's business concerns there.

Barba Georgi : Και γιατι σου στελνει εκει, ο μπαμπας σου?
Boyfriend : Για να γινω ανδρας
Barba Georgi : Και εκει βρηκε να σου στειλε, παιδι μου!!!!!!!!!!
