It might have been Fidel. I was assuming though it was the poor Cuban women whom Fidel pimps. (Gordon, p. 20). Reflecting the official line, Fidel Castro remarked in 1993 that thanks to socialism Cuban girls must make the cleanest and best-educated prostitutes in the world. (Thomas Von Mouillard, Sex Tourism Arrives in Cuba, The Ottawa Citizen, March 13, 1993, p. K5. (Lexis-Nexis); Adams, p. A1) Castro said in 1992 in a speech to the Cuban National Assembly: “There are no women forced to sell themselves to a man, to a foreigner, to a tourist. Those who do so do it on their own, voluntarily, and without any need for it. We can say that they are highly educated hookers and quite healthy, because we in the country with the lowest numbers of AIDS cases… Therefore, there is truly no prostitution healthier that Cuba’s. He also said in 1992 that: “Cuban women become jineteras (prostitutes) because they like sex.” futurodecuba.org Not very many heads of state speak this way about their women.
