This could be because:
1. It is the stuff we read in our porn stories.
2. Tourists we see seldom travel alone, especially a woman.
3. Real encounters of local Indian men with foreign woman comes as **** attempts or assaults in newspapers, not in such forums.
This is not to say you didn't experience what you did. It is rare.

I agree that the cultural notations you describe are accurate.

But what the heck, you had fun. Thanks for sharing!

The only problem is that this plays into the dangerous stereotype of the foreign woman = immoral woman equation. Dangerous because assaults on foreign women are quite rampant in India.
Nevertheless it is quite common for Western, relatively wealthy women travelling in "exotic" places to take advantage of the unusual dynamic - their wealth giving them much more power than they are used to having over men - and use this power to explore sexual pleasure with less inhibition than they usually would have.

If anyone thinks it is a fiction that even an older, plain woman will easily find a partner - HA.

I often hear people say "no, that would never happen in my country, people are too conservative". I've even heard people claim there are no gay people in their country. Nonsense. We are all born with the same bodies and desires, and they will find a way even when people pretend to be proper to avoid the stares of their neighbors.
