Anyone know what's behind the 'oh papi' during 'the act'?


First time I'm doing the deed with a Dominican (might have been the second, but pretty sure it was the first) and she starts making the appreciative noises and then as things 'get up to speed' starts throwing in 'oh papi'.


Now first time in DR, don't speak Spanish so much, but this broke my rythem as I did a mental 'ummm, did she just call me 'daddy'? Listen closer second time and no, 'it's papi', shrug it off, maybe it means something else but sounds disconcertingly close to 'papa'.


Next day I'm chilling out with another chica and during the conversation says something like 'si papi' or something. So I stop and ask her what it means. She gets a little help from someone who speaks more English and confirms it means 'papa or daddy'. This might be good for some, but not my thing and I tell her not to call me that. She catches herself a couple more times while we're talking so obviously its a reflex and not something special for me - but she does stop. I didn't take her back to my room so no idea if it would have still come out during the act or not.

During the trip it seemed to be a routine verbal appreciation.....

Female in the states say it sometimes during sex. They say "yes, daddy Fuck this pussy" or "this pussy is yours daddy" etc. No big deal

I think I heard the same phrase used by pretty well all the girls I had in DR, especially the ones at Blackbeard's resort. In addition, the Blackbeard's girls did this stupid thing where they are playing with my nipples during the deed and while they were saying the phrase. This didn't do a thing for me (but didn't turn me off either).

In the D.R. many Women have never met their biological Fathers. She was probably hedging her bets just in case you were, indeed her "Papi". How much younger than you was she?

You must not hang out with many afro-latino folk where you're from. In general, "papi" is a term of endearment. I've noticed that puerto ricans use it more than dominicans. I've been told that dominicans usually reserve the term for significant others (unless she's a puta). Whereas puerto ricans call everyone papi.

I prefer papi to the current trend, which is to call everyone "negro".

Actually, it's similar to saying "oh, baby." You'll hear it during the act of sex or, as I think someone else pointed out, during a simple conversation with a chica who knows you fairly well, or one who wants to get to know you well. Papi basically means "baby," depending on the context in which it's used.

The one that got me and my neighbor's attention repeatedly said very loudly, "Cono dame tu leche, dame tu leche". That child was working so hard that I feared I might break her. I've just had one foolish chick tell me duro. From Santiago, 5'6" and about 135lbs. That hoe beat me up so much that I wouldn't session with her again. Every time she would approach me after that I would make the sign of the cross with my fingers. Baby was way cute, but there was no way I was going to give her another chance to injure me. :rofl::rofl::rofl:

When they bust me up so bad and drain my nuts so good that I don't even want to look at Punani the next day all I can say is "job well done". Hopefully one of that type will escort me to the next plane of existence one day. I want them to need a chisel to get the coffin lid closed.

We finish and I give her some time to compose herself then I gently confront her, "who the hell is Rico". She chuckled before breaking it down for the stupid gringo.

I get called 'chino' all the time down in latin america. I've learn to accept it as not being mean, it's just the way they talk. At Blackbeard's, this one middle aged guy janitor there stretched out his hand to offer a handshake one morning while he said 'buenos dias chino, how is your vacation so far?'

That's when it really confirmed that they use the term not as a derogatory purpose but just as a normal everyday talk. Girls in Costa Rica, Mexico and DR who were trying to get my attention have all called me that - but never during sex!

That's a good thing...if it's not faked. One night I was licking a tasting Dominicana pussy and when she got to the point of not return, she let out a "aaaaay papi que rico!!!", that was the day that Dominicanas went to the top of my list (I'm sorry that Colombianas had to go an step down).

Don't feel bad for being called "papi" by a Dominicana, she is not calling you dad, like DCIronman already said, it's a term of endearment. She thinks you're special, enjoy the moment...unless she's a puta, in that case, she's just trying to make you feel better in order to extract a propina from you.

Oh, what the hell, just give her a few extra-pesos!!!

I thought this thread was dedicated to my new wing, PapiQueRico... It's really not anything bad as stated before, if anything it's good... In NYC you hear spanish mothers call their little kids papi all the time... And when you are twisting out the nana, they give you the ayeeee Papiiii - You are doing it the right way when hearing this, or she is a great actress... lol

My friend is Honduran and not actually dark skinned but darker then most of his friends... When he goes back to the homeland, they call him negro...

Agreed! A dude callin his boy papi is kind of homo-ish... now a younger man calling an older man, around his fathers age Papi, is ok...

For instance, there was an older spanish man with a cane on the train the other day, and I said to him toma Papi, and got up from my seat for him...

So it was my third trip to the island. Tequila was flowing one late afternoon (not me) and my favorita grabs my hand and drags me to the bed. She mounts me and the games ensue. I knew basically zero Spanish at that point but after several minutes of sweat invoking 'love making'................I learned all the Spanish I needed to know at that moment.

It came in the form of a whisper but demand..........'en mi culo papi'...........as she took care of rearranging everything down below. The night had only just begun.......:corky:

One of my best friends from law school moved to NYC after we graduated and used to leave in Ozone Park, in Queens. I drove up from DC to see him one wknd and got extremely lost.

Now, this was before everyone had smart phones with gps and google maps. So I had to stop and ask this guy on the corner for directions. When I told him where I was trying to go, he said "Oh, chu a long ways away papi!":rofl::rofl::rofl:

It's happened so many times since then, that I figured that it was normal for PR cats to call each other that. Sorta like mexican guys calling each other "Ese" or "Homes". Lol!

I call people papa, or primo all the time in the states, I don't know why, but I've been doing it since I was a kid. Most times people don't mind, except some of the Mexican cats I work with get pissed the fuck off, they tell me only their wives call them that, at this point it's a habit, and I just do it without meaning.


But I have a really weird experience with the whole "oh papi" skit. My very first casa girl was a very big talker in bed, I don't talk much if not at all, just not my thing, it doesn't really enhance the experience for me. When she would ride me she'd start of moaning "ahh si papi" and she'd literally would do this non stop, and I mean she wouldn't take a break, it was just "ahh si papi" over, and over, after a while she'd change it up and go to "papi" and she would just say that over, and over, and over, and then finally she'd finish off with "papi quien es tu mami?" when I wouldn't respond because I just don't talk. She'd start riding me harder, and really kicking it into an extra gear, and just keep repeating the question in one form or another, she'd switch between "papi quien es tu mami?" and "paip soy tu mami?" she'd do this throughout the entire session without taking a single break, until she'd finally cum.

After I picked up that if I didn't respond she'd want to fuck the answer out of me, anytime I fucked her after that I'd be dead silent, and she'd would fuck me 5 ways to Sunday.

I eventually did. Its not like I was going to stop in the middle of the act and tell them to cut it out. It threw me for a loop the first time but was frequent enough I just shrugged it off after the second or third time.

It did leave me wondering why though was it me? foreigners? age? dominicans?

You reminded me of a funny situation from last trip.

I was fucking this chick in the ass. Like Hanzo im usually not big on talking during sex. For some reason this day I was.

So as im fucking her im like "te gusta por el culo si"?

I get no response.

My point wasn't so much the money as I didn't let a little thing get in my way :rolleyes:

But since you asked:

I'd guess around $3500 over the course of the trip. This is in-line with the amount of cash I brought with me (or took out in Sosua) and the hit my bank balance took before and during the trip.

Airfare was about $600
Hotels (total for 14 nights across BBs, NG, MR - stayed in the nicer / larger rooms) was about $1000
1500 / ST (except BBs, which was a bit more) - not sure how many, call it 10 (10x1500) = 15,000 BOP (about $375)
2500 / TLN (except BBs, which was a bit more) - prob about a week's worth (7x2500) = 17,000 (about $435)
I'd guess I averaged around 3000 BOP ($75 / day) on everything else including food, drinks, Cialis (I think I used 3 boxes while I was there), condoms, phone and everything else. This would have included going out at night and drinking as well as any food / drinks for a Chica if I was with one.

Throw in a couple extra hundred bucks for stuff I bought before the trip like sunscreen, second hand camera, travel meds, cab rides to the airport and back in my home country etc. and it was probably around $3800 all in.

I probably would have spent a lot more on chicas if I hadn't spent time reading this board first.

You spent a bit more than some of the experienced guys, but not by much really.


It may cost one guy $500 less which really isn't a big deal. Some may have spent $4,000 - $5,000 for what you had.


In time, you will get the hang of it better.

We all know you don't need my help, but for practice I'll take a stab at it. Literally it means fool asshole. In common usage though I'd go with "stupid asshole" or "stupid prick".


Great!! Thanks a lot!!!

What the hell. In many Latin communities every man, boy, child is 'Papi'. Women call their sons Papi, dudes call their homies Papi, girls call their lil boyfriends Papi. Everybody can be called Papi. Get over it if a chica wants to call you Papi of all things. Exactly.
