How To Pick-UP Men in Costa Rica Gay or Otherwise

Dear Traveling Gay Man,

So you want to visit Costa Rica and hopefully find some men to fool around with... fair enough, after all it's what 'gay' tends to do. Pura Vida.

I'm going to give you a BIG TIP that can help you in your quest and maybe even save you from potentially embarrassing yourself. This tip doesn't really pertain to those of you hooking up via the internet on sites such as Adam4Adam, Manhunt, Craigslist etc.. or those going to gay clubs or bath houses to find hook-ups. This is for guys just traveling around hoping to find some HOT Tico men on their own. * You need to know that most men in Costa Rica will have 'gay sex' whether they're gay or not- trust me on this, which is why this tip is SO BIG. Under NO circumstances say anything about gay, don't say the word 'gay' and absolutely don't mention being a 'top' or 'bottom' or ask which they are- it's a deal breaker and can potentially lead to a hostile situation for the obvious reason that they don't appreciate the 'gay' label. That's it. Buy them a few beers, chat them up (you don't necessarily need to know a lot of Spanish,,, again, trust me), buy them a burger... and JUST DO IT!

GOOD LUCK and you can thank me later.

Gay Boys in Costa Rica- Kissing Badly

Gay boys in Costa Rica, La Fortuna particularly, are frequently guilty of kissing as if they’re a MUTANT combination of half vacuum cleaner - half Labrador Retriever. This is NOT a GOOD thing for someone like me who LOVES to make-out. Obviously, I’m only going from my own EXPERIENCE (although D'Angelo concurs), but take my word; I have accumulated plenty of data in the last 6 or so years of living in Costa Rica to come to this ‘bad kissers’ conclusion.

The reasons for this lack of kissing skills? Here, many gays are still in the CLOSET and don't get OUT much, so when a gay opportunity presents itself, gay Tico's tend to get OVERLY excited, VERY quickly. Picture a DOG in 90 degree heat that hasn’t had water all day; its BIG, FAT, SLOPPY tongue dragging on the floor, well, my LIPS apparently look like a dish of water. EWH!

Other times I feel like I’m being ‘SLIMED’ or they’re testing my gag reflex with their tongue,,,, which of course we all know is WAY HOT!

SLOW the down for God sake.

Not much is better than making OUT, leaned against the wall, pressed against each other, shirts off, nibble here, bite there, and the NECK- don’t even get me started, BUT,,,,,,,,,,,,,, the moment is often ruined with the puppy dog approach of making-out and for me, can be a DEAL breaker.

I’m all for getting horned up while making out, I get as excited as the next gay guy- the anticipation of SEX is a HOT thing. But BAD kissing can be quiet the BUZZ kill. If this is how they kiss, what’s this Human Vacuum Cleaner/Labrador Retriever going to do when they work their way SOUTH. Bad kissers are 10 times more likely to do other 'heady' acts just as bad, if you know what I mean- another BUZZ kill.

Obviously, inexperience plays a major role and I’m sure many of these guys haven’t had much practice. I’m thinking they have nothing to go by but cheap internet porn, so everything comes down to, ‘the harder the better’. Well maybe, but kissing.

So listen up my HOT tico friends, slow down, think SOFT and keep your tongue in your mouth and I promise you- we’ll get there. HARD comes later.

.... and I'm always lookin to be PROVED wrong. hehe
