Last Monday (May 28) the Santo Domingo based radioshow El Mañanero han an interview with Amelia Alcántara.
The interview has been a complete hit. In a matter of days it received more than 500,000 views and today, after its full week since coming on air, surpasses 700,000 views.
In addition to the very high interest level it has captured from the Dominican audience online, on the radio, and on television; it has also created a scandal with many high profile Dominican women criticizing Amelia Alcántara for her ways.
The problem?
Amelia talks with complete frankness. In the interview she said that she is a chapiadora and confesses that she sleeps with married men. According to her, if she likes a man she goes after him with all her fury, the resulting problems that could arise because of the extramarital affair is only between the guy and his wife, according to her. She claims many of her exes gave her a car and an apartment, among other things. She also said that all Dominican women sleep with married men, and when Liz says she's one that doesn't do that, Amelia responds that Liz should be given a crown for being such a rarity.
She mentions many well known Dominican women that are chapiadoras too, many of which are her friends (or were, after this interview I doubt many of those friendships are in good standing, lol.)
She implies that a man that doesn't sleeps with her within a week of starting to date is not worth it. She's not going to wait to have intimate relations, the waiting game is a thing of the past.
One of the funniest (some say saddest) part is when she's asked if she has been with men that she felt nothing for and only for the money/material things he gave her. She said yes and then said that as soon that men give her money/things she falls in love with them. A man that doesn't give her anything is thrown to the curb, her words.
Anyway, she's a very honest woman, albeit corrupt in so many other ways.
Criticisms after the interview center much on her, but many Dominicans also say that she is being honest and that most modern Dominican women are exactly as she is with the exception that they create a facade of prudeness while Amelia simply says it like it is.
Unfortunately for many DR1ers, the interview is in Spanish only and no English subtitles, as far as I can tell.
