I think you know what I mean. Kind of childish to try and label woman.
We all see them differently, one man's trash is another man's treasure etc...

I think that Robert meant labeling the people that use/bed people like the ones the OP described. I don't think he meant labeling DR1 members. I could be wrong.

You are right, it is childish. However most of us form an early opinion of any one we meet and attach some type of label to them, right or wrong. When we talk about that person instead of saying, “ well I really do not know enough about them to say”, we share our unfounded opinions.

First of all, the labels : cuero, puta, chica beeper, grillo, chopa etc are not invented by foreigners but by dominicans themselves. If a girl is a slut and dresses like one and acts like one then she is a slut (puta, cuero) regardless of her financial background. A very rich santiago woman married to a dominican millionaire is busted slutting around with many dom men. She is a millionaire even by american standards and hillbilly knows whom I am talking about. She is a wife of a very well respected man in santiago yet in the eyes of santiagueros, she is a cuero.
It so happens majority of young barrio women who are seen with old foreign tourists are considered cueros by the local dominicans. An ugly barrio girl = grillo and a low life mal-vestida barrio girl with a tourist is either called a cucaracha (cockroach) or a chopa but she can be attractive.
The rich girls who slut around are simply called cueros or putas. The university girls who sleep with lawyers, doctors are called chica beeper (call girls).
The decent working girls are unknown to foreigners so lets not even worry about them.

Do these girls have a label? If so, is it "Fea."

Fea as in looks or actions? Remember these are not B/C and North Coast chicas.
