I will be visiting Punta Cana/Bavaro region next week and I wanted to know if anyone has any idea if Gay bars exist? I'm not exactly looking for sex but looking to party in an atmosphere where I can be relaxed. Please let me know if anyone knows of any. I have read in previous postings that male prostitution is common.....Is that for males as well?? SORRY if I have offended anyone, that was not my intention.

Thanks,

Clay/NYC

Sorry to inform you that there is no gay bars/clubs out side Santo Domingo (The Capital). However, in Punta Cana/Bavaro there is a Bar/Club call Huracancito or Huracan (Can't remember the exact name) but it is gay friendly. the club don't have a dance floor (the best thing is that it is located right on the beach and does not belong to any resort/hotel) also the Night club at the Riu complex it also has a very open minded ambiance.

I would highly recommend you to stay away from prostitutes due to the fact that prostitution is illegal in the Dominican Republic. But what ever you do be safe! ;o)

If you have any question or comment do not hesitate to contact me at Amigostours@aol.com.

"I would highly recommend you to stay away from prostitutes due to the fact that prostitution is illegal in the Dominican Republic."

From the DR1 archives:
We spoke to Mercedes Lora, legal counsel at the Ministry of Women, Tel. 809 685-3755, who told us that prostitution [is not prohibited] in the Dominican Republic.

Prostitution is NOT ILLEGAL in the Dominican Republic (according to those sources mentioned). It is ILLEGAL in the USA. I don't see the connection.

Re: Gay/Bi info To-MR.Clay/Jim

Hello all of you
Mr.Jim are right
when he say that prostitution are not illegal
that means that you would not go to prison
by doing prostitution
but yes
if what you are doing are legally considered as A immoral act

I would say this part in Spanish
someone help me please

para la moral y la buena costumbre

then the police/justice can submit you to the justice

fore does who would be spec-tical with my comment
please ask A lawyer

he would tell as

legally I don't have the know-leg that someone had being to prison
because his is gay/prostitute
what ever
but yes doing sexual act on the public place yes may get you in trouble

there fore if there are A bar in Punta Cana where there are les/gay/prostitute
having drinks/kissing
I don't think they would have trouble
but if they do more then that
I believe legally the clients-and even the owner can be in trouble

please correct me if I am wrong

Peace:)

Re: Gay/Bi info To-MR.Clay/Jim

It comes under the act of indecsent/insulting behaviour.

In most countries it would be "illegal" (prosecutable)
to show certain body-parts in the supermarket. Some people
gets offended by human reproductive activities in the public,
but readily accepts destructive ones. (In many states you can,
legally, kill an intruder while neighbours are watching. You
probably couldn't have intercourse with him/her, still with
neighbours watching)

Dominican law doesn't prohibit "consensus" transactions of
services or merchandise between adult participants except in
the case of controlled substances, or property that has
otherwise been illegally procured. An altogether descent
attitude.

Re: Gay/Bi info To-MR.Clay/Jim:)

(Almost finished this post when the light went out, trying to
recap it...)

It's not legal terms, legal terms cover things prohibited,
normally not things allowed. It is my interpretation of
what I read, seen and experienced. Just tried to formalize
it in reasonably non-dubious terms. In the U.S a "seller"
of sexual service can get arrestsed, trialled and sentenced,
since the selling is explicitly prohibited by law. The buyer
can occationally be prosecuted for "encouraging" crime.

In Sweden, it would be the other way around, the buying is
prohibited, while the selling is legal.

To the best of my knowledge, there is no legislation prohibiting
neither the selling, nor buying here, as long as all involved
parties are "of age". Mind you, I haven't read all DR legislation
on the subject, just done some reasonable research.

It has been, and still is a sad story about underage prostitutes,
but the general instruction (and legislation) is to act
"strongly" against buyers of this form.

About the 'bravo': Am I the only one who reacted against parents
who goes hay-wire about their kids watching "adult movies", but
cheerfully puts "terminator", "rambo" etc into their "baby
watching VCR's"? When does anyone suggest a "parental watch"
system for internet sites containing graphic and instructional
material on killing?
