First of all. Be you...whoever that is...
You will find that there is a larger concentration of gay men in the cities - Santiago, Santo Domingo and others. Whether or not that means anything to you - is up to you. However, there are plenty of people in el campo who are quite comfortable with who they are and carry not the least bit of shame about it. However - they are not stupid. Neither do they walk up and down the streets of Gaspar Hdz holding hands - nor would they do it in say, the Bronx or Branson. It is not a part of their personality.
If you are OK with you, you are respectable, honest, direct and sincere - and CYA always - you will be just fine - and can meet some quality people. As others indicate there are plenty of sankies, hustlers, buggarones and ne'er do wells. Your gay for pay'dar will go off immediately. Skip the trick and wait for the treat...
Live a few months in the city. Live a few months in the country. I find it is nice to visit mega malls and go shopping and visit the Malecon and Naco and all that - and then get on a bus and go back to quiet and ocean waves. Not for all...just my $.03 worth today.
