A pretty woman and blogger says "I'm not a prostitute and I don't have a sugar daddy!' Blogger"



I'm not a prostitute and I don't have a sugar daddy!' Blogger, 27, pens furious rant about 'ignorant' people who judge her because she is a 'pretty woman' traveling alone. 

A travel blogger has opened up about the social stereotypes that come along with being a 'pretty' woman who travels alone, insisting that she is sick of people assuming she is getting over a break-up - or that she is a prostitute on the prowl for her next customer. 

My Life's A Movie blogger Alyssa Ramos, 27, from Los Angeles, explained in an essay for the Huffington Post that she can't figure out why her desire to travel alone is an 'international mystery to some people'. And even worse, she said her appearance earns her judgmental stares wherever she goes. 
'Pretty girl traveling alone in another country typically automatically translates to prostitute,' she griped.
 'Not joking. If I wear make-up, if I wear anything that shows skin, if I wear leggings - or God forbid, if I wear a bikini - I always get the most opinionated stares from people assuming I'm looking for my next customer to pick up.'

The blonde beauty recently met a German man in Cuba who confirmed that most people think an attractive woman who is traveling alone is indeed a prostitute, telling her that the locals had even warned him about 'pretty Cuban girls' who troll the beach looking for tourists to talk to.


'No wonder why people look at me like I'm going to steal their husbands,' she wrote.
Alyssa explained that some of the confusion stems from the fact that some people just can't figure out why she would willingly choose to set off on her own, without friends, or a male companion, to travel with her.
'I travel alone because I can,' she wrote. 'I don't really like waiting around for other people to go with me.'
Alyssa, who has visited more than 30 countries and been on six continents, insisted that she has paid for all of her trips herself, joking that she has yet to figure out how to use her pretty looks to her advantage when she is buying plane tickets as a faceless customer online.
