Default Sanqui/sankie

There's even a forum on the subject. Check this out:

http://www.dr1.com/forums/sankie-101/

Regarding the dough to bring: it depends on your lifestyle. If you'd say something about what hotel or what kind of hotel you'll be staying at and what kind of entertainment you're looking for I'm sure people here will tell you what you want to know.

Enjoy your stay.

Cheers,
Bok

Sankies are men who have sex with women and men for money more under the guise of love or friendship vs. a pure cash transaction. It is interesting in one post you are going down to impress real girls with being from NYC (woo hoo NYC!) and then you post here about budgeting for HO's - which is a mean and lousy way to refer to working girls and as such a lousy way to ask here for advice.

It would be like a girl posting here asking for advice on what to charge an a**hole NYC tourist.

Maybe you want to go abck and edit your post and ask decently. I have all the answers you need and choose to offer precisely none of them. I know a lot of these street girls and bar girls, who by and large are poor and poorly educated girls and I wouldn't call them HO's or putas to them or to others.

NB: What on earth does this sentence/fragment mean: I know to stay away from something about taking money but what really is it..."???

They aren't Ho's, get it yet? I guess not. No advice (or soup) for you.

You have got to be kidding me….HO is short for Whore which is the same thing as Prostitute (look it up they both get paid for sexual acts) …is one really better than the other ? It’s like saying would you rather be stupid, dumb, or a idiot.

Although the no soup thing was kinda funny….

If you only eat 1 meal per day and are just looking to drink and have sex then you wont need much money. $50.00 per day could do it. I generally bring about $70.00 per day when I go to the north coast ( excluding hotel costs) but couldn't spend it if I tried. I always come home with alot of it. Hope you have fun.

Larry

Exclamation Prostitutes or Working Girls are Fine

There are words that are simply nouns and then there are words that are nouns intended to demean or offend, e.g. a prostitute is a prostitute, I agree that is what they do - however, a whore ["ho"] or a slut or a puta are insults, and you can use better language - since what you say often reflects on the type of person you are. And how much people would want to know or assist you (not much).

To use your sample quoted above, it is not like saying you are stupid, dumb or an idiot (though I am bordering on thinking of you in that regard) since those are all meant to be insults. It is more like calling a waiter your servant or a slave which are examples of taking a job name and finding a way of putting down the person who has it.

No advice for you. Except if you knew Spanish I would suggest trying to call the BC working girls putas, whores, etc. (disculpame, senorita, eres una puta?) , and see what kind of reaction you get. Quit with using hip-hop and pornos to determine decorum - it ain't working.
