Maybe this whole sankie thing is just a world that we will never understand, as there are so many different factors involved that I feel uncomfortable labeling either side as being worse than the other.

It may be very convenient to label all sankies as dirtbags or whatever, but the truth of the matter is we never really focus on the behavior of the women who consciously seek them out and how they behave when they are at these resorts.

I just do not think it is as cut and dry as some may want us to believe.
After reading many of the sankie stories, I have to agree. While no one deserves to be taken advanatage of, one has to question why so many women fall into this trap. There was an interesting article on the Kenyan version of male prostitutes, and the white british women who frequent them. They seem to realize this is about the sex, companionship, and $$$.

Why does it seem so many women come to DR and get all caught up in this emotional, financial drama?

Having looked at the facebook photos posted at the link above, the men are generally attractive, young, seemingly having fun, young, and young. So the next question would be are these young, fun loving, attractive men available to you in your home town? if not, why would anyone believe these men magically fall in love the minute you grace their resorts with your presence?

Again, while no one deserves or is looking to get taken advantage of, this song has been playing across many islands and countries where poor, generally brown skin men and women are available for a price.

I would welcome one of the sankies perspective on this. I'm sure that side of the story is quite interesting as well.

Tell that to the OP.
Calling what they do a game is just a slimy way of embellishing the truth, that they are low life scumbag con artists.
Anyone who says or thinks differently, has some moral and ethical problems... Big ones !!!!!

I see it as a game where the tourists don't know what the rules are until it's too late.

I have neither moral nor ethical problems.. big nor small.

I see....
Like the bank robbing game, or the pedophile game or the rape game.
Yeah...
I get it.
It's just a game when the victims don't know the rules until it's too late.

I saw an execellent Sanky movie on TV here the other day. It was a movie taking place in the Seventies in Haiti. It was these middleaged women from the US and Europe all in love with a locel Haitian Sanky and hanging out with them on the beach.

Play for pay?

Like we've said at least two million times here, that's fine if people know what they are doing. Play for pay? Who cares, we don't even need to discuss this topic but it's the con artist that makes women feel that they have a future together and she is the one and only in his life, that is the reason these forums exist.

Manipulative con artist taking advantage of women that want a relationship and are maybe caught at a vulnerable stage in life. Like after a divorce, end of a long relationship or death in the family. BS land sounds like such an escape in comparison and this is when a con artists makes his move.

In reality I see it as the women being too damn naive...who in their right mind BELIEVES all this crap in only a few hours???

Vulnerable yes...I understand...but you have to be accountable for your actions also...if you believe in all those lines being fed to you...accept the consequences ...

The question women should post themselves when confronted with this should be:

Would I trust a guy BACK HOME telling me he loves me the same night we meet?

Maybe we should make this a sticky for the newbies...

I think the movie you're referring to is Going South.

Haiti was a known sex spot for years. So see, the two sides of the island do have things in common
