Las Salinas

Music and dancing are key components to Dominican culture and Las Salinas is no exception.

Other popular dishes usually have one of the following: avena (chocolate oatmeal), spaghetti, fried eggs, and Dominican salami.

Las Salinas is notable for having a number of children in the village with a rare 5-alpha-reductase deficiency.

Although having a Y-chromosome and male internal organs, at birth they tend to appear externally female and are raised as girls.

These boys are called "guevedoces" from a combined slang form meaning "eggs (testes) at twelve".
