Jao I think you missed the most important lyrics in the song:
"Top coat, top hat. And I don't worry cause my wallets fat![/QUOTE]Best line of the song.
Nice pics. How was the midget?

U don't have to dress to the nine but presentation of one self is DEFINITELY important. If your one of those guys that wear a Hawaiian shirt with wrinkle shorts and some old sandals that you had since '79, and smelling like old spice from a cologne that your mom gave you when you were a kid then yeah good luck attracting a fine honey and paying market value buddy. Whatever broad you take home she's planing to tax you for sleeping with your funky ass LOL.
I keep it simple. The way I dress or look fresh when I'm home in the states when I go out is the same presentation I'ma do when I'm down there.
Or as my pimp partner once told me."I don't impress these hoes I impress myself" Ya dig!
As a man of color I try to blend in on occasion in the DR. I will wear my jeans and a decent t shirt. I noticed Dominican men almost never wear shorts. I am not sure how well it works. I know I can tell when I see an another American Black or white. However I have the illusion that I am blending in. As long as I keep my mouth shut it seems to work. If I go to a disco or casino I want to look the part of big popi American. You actually get treated a little better. I think you draw the top shelf chicas or at least have them looking which I like. Like everything else cloths can be a tool on some occasions.

Are you serious Mr E? That is funny. Never have I seen one in a suit at any of these places. So you know what we are talking about. The chicas adore you ($$) no matter how you dress. They can smell a tourist, regardless of your clothes, color etc. Once they know that, next thing that matters is how you treat them and how willing you are to spend your money. Buying drinks to chicas at the club is a big plus, esp. If they like to party. Classico is such a great petting zoo, you can have a young attractive honey grinding / kissing / romancing you all night just for a few drinks, Just imagine how much that alone can cost you at "Sex Prison". After all the king treatment for several hours I have ended up not picking them due to other intangibles (like they cannot do TLN due to baby at home, bla bla). I felt sorry but I want what I want and there were still choices, it only happened couple of times.
My Classico monger suggestion would be a T-shirt with a collar or a shirt and decent dress shorts. Of course your stuff is going to be bought in US/Europe and makes difference. At a regular night club at SD or Santiago it would be more apt to dress up like Jao mentioned.
[QUOTE=SavePros321; 1231905]This reminded me of my last (read "final") night club experience in sex prison last year. For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to go to the club on Valentines Day to hook up with single and lonely chicks. You would have thought that these "ones that didn't get picked" would have been happy to have some company, but that wasn't the case. Most of the chicks in there that night weren't looking for anyone, and most seemed content with dancing with their home-girls in a circle. They were (including myself) the "rejects" after all. These were the chicks that found out that day that they were just a "booty-call", and that there was no way their dudes were going to ditch their main girlfriends on Valentines Day to kick it with these "side-skanks", LOL.
Either way, I found myself standing around with my drink in my hand looking just as stupid as the other guys in there that night standing around with their drink in their hand wondering why we were constantly getting shot-down left and right. I finally realized there was one other place I could go; and, having not been there for almost an entire year (March '09) , I booked my 3rd trip to Sosua the next day and ended up going a total of 3 times that year.
Women in sex prison will look at you and determine 1) They will fuck you (sexually; not referring to monetary fucking in this instance, LOL) , or 2) They have "other options".
As a guy, it's always good to know we also have "other options" :cool:.[/QUOTE]I cannot gather myself to go to another sex prison night club, even if pros were available. Imagine how much you would have to pay and how bad the service would be. I have "other options" locally. Today I had a Mexican buddy take me to a "40 dollar" place. You get limited time, CFS, but it works when you haven't had any in a while. She gets a poker chip for every customer and I was there at closing time and there were about 10 chips;) Mami was big but tight.
This is really nothing new, but this morning I was talking to a couple of young guys from New York who have been here before at least once, and they had just moved their accommodations partly because of being hassled by Dominican guys who are trying to "help" them. They told me that last night one of these guys was arrested by the cops right in front of them, so they got out of the way.
General rule of thumb is that if some Dominican guy who knows some English approaches and offers to help you find chicas, be your tour guide, etc. Tell them to drop dead and fuck off, not necessarily in that order. Do not under any circumstances offer them a drink or any food. This is equivalent to putting out a saucer of milk for a stray cat. Once they know where you stay and have established themselves as your "friend", the only way to get rid of them is to stop feeding them.
The problems is that they will want money from you for being your "friend" and introducing you to girls, then they will also be extorting money from the girls they introduce you to, so that will push up the price of the services of the girls too. Anyway, you just don't need these guys. The girls are more than capable of introducing themselves and ripping you off without the help of a pimp.
I must say I have never had a problem of this kind in Sosua, but I did once in Boca Chica, because when I met the guy I actually thought he was an American. I only got rid of the guy when I told him I wanted him to come to the Tourist Police with me. Anyway these guys managed to locate one of these tourist guides in Sosua and found him to be a complete nuisance.

Do what works for you. You can list a number of variables that aren't needed in Sosua. We all have our preferences. I'm not going to judge you and your Kmart short set and you don't worry about what I wear. I won't dress down because I'm in Sosua. I wear the same clubbing gear there as I would in the US. I like how some feel they have to school you on what to do. I like dimes and you'd better believe that most of the time you need to step your game up. I guess washing your ass and brushing your teeth isn't needed as well, but I can just imagine the skanks that you will bring home.

In the clubs there, what matters is not clothing style but as rightly mentioned, if and how much one is going to splurge.
In Santiago, on the contrary, in November, I was wearing a casual short sleeve collarless t-shirt and long pants with a baseball cap and I was not allowed to go in a dance club. I was alone so my take is that single guys spell trouble? What was funny is that the night before, I went in dressed the same way sans baseball cap but with a lovely chica and no one flinched.

I went down with him a couple of months later which was my first time in DR. We ran into the guy and he had the nerve to ask my wingman for a tip for introducing him to a girl on his last trip.

Unfortunately there are always some visitors who like to play the flash American "big spender" and like nothing better than have these asskissers dancing attendance on them. They thinking they are impressing people but in fact the locals and ex-pats just laugh at them because they know most of these parasites and that they only settle on easy marks.

But if these petty criminals (because that is what most of them are) learn where you are living, or when you are leaving, or your favorite haunts and chicas, or which pocket you keep your cash or cards in, etc, etc, you could loose a lot more than a few hundred or a few thousand pesos extra on chica prices.
Stay away from Dominican and Haitian males in Sosúa. If they are not obviously engaged in some honest job (in which case they won't have time to pester you) leave them well alone. Don't give this vermin the time of day.
The point is that they can do nothing for you that you cannot do for yourself. Except boost your ego if you are a total prat.
I am new to the scene and am dying to go to the DR to meet some of those beautiful honeys. Just wondering if it is possible to do this with very little knowledge of Spanish.

But honestly, chicas will not know the difference between Kmart brand or Calvin Klein. The only thing that truly matters to them is that you have the pesos to pay them and that you pay them what you both agreed on.
I've never had a chica check me for clothing labels. I've pulled "dimes" (highly subjective term) walking around at 3pm in crocs, shorts, a white tee, and a towel around my neck, lol.
But as Temporteco said, outside of Sosua (like Santiago) it may be a different story.
I am planning a trip to Sosua next month but I could save two hundred dollars if I fly into Santiago. My problem is my flight get in and leave very early in the morning so I wanted to take a taxi but I cannot get a price. I heard that a oneway fare was $80, then $100 and now 35 dollars. I know about the two bus lines but because of the early flight times I would need a taxi. In the past I would just flight to POP with one connection total time under nine hours but now it is not that easy. Now two connection with a minimum time of over fifthteen hour to POP or an eight hour flight to STI and with the cab or bus ride will still be faster. Thanks for the help.

I found several people going to Sosua each flight coming into Santiago, maybe even start asking people at your last layover while the plane is boarding.
If you have to take a cab I wouldn't pay them more than eighty bucks, just ask around someone will take you to Sosua for that.
