Real Domincans...
Provide definition
BTW, can the 'fake' Dominicans identify themselves.
For you to get a proper answer, you'll need to provide a definition of 'who is a real Dominican' ... you don't want 'fake' Dominicans responding.Zorian1 said:

Dominican by birth.
Yes people born in the DR are real Dominicans.
I don't think we understand exactly what you are getting at.Do you mean members on this board or do you mean what some silly posters refer to as "real Dominicans" ?
If it's about the silly posters don't worry about it.

I am referring to the members of this board that are by birth / heritage Dominican. I read some place here that only about 10% of the board population is acutally Dominican... I want to know who they are.
Also keep in mind that many of the board members here even though they are not Dominican by birth, consider themselves Dominican by heart and by living there day in and day out.
Off the top of my head, some of the more active members of DR1 who are really Dominican: Dolores, Pib, Miguel, mondongo, suarezn, arturo, carlos, MrMark, Nals, 2dlight, Tordok, Linamia, simpson homer, Mirador and many more. It is true that they are outnumbered by non-Dominicans, although Hillbilly at least should have earned his stripes by now.
This is not meant to be a full list by any means, so no apologies to those I left out. Just the first few who came to mind when I read the thread.
Note: not all live in the DR.

Well it's up to the members to reveal themselves but yes a large majority of us on this board were NOT born in the Dominican Republic.
Some are living there, some have married Dominicans, some have vacationed there for years, some have Dominican parents but were born elsewhere, some have one Dominican parent.
Hope this helps
Me, me, me, me, me me!!!
I was born in Villa Duarte, Santo Domingo.
Relocated to the US in 1974. Lived in Brooklyn, NY for over 24 years.
Relocated to Pennsylvania a few years back.
Althought very much americanized, half of my heart belongs to the DR, the other half belongs to the greatest nation in the world, the Good Old US of A since I have lived here 32 of my 43 years.

Well I thought you were refering to people when they say get out of the tourist areas to see "real" dominicans.
Anna Coniglio said:BTW Zorion welcome to Dr1.
Tell us where you are from and whether you are a real Dominican or not.
Thank you Anna,
A little background music please...
the id is Zorian1... Zorian = Latin for happy and the number 1 to denote "happy one"
No, I am not Dominican, not even a real Dominican.
I am from North Carolina, born and raised.
I simply wanted to establish a friendly relationship with those who are.
Mission accomplished. :rambo:
