Macata

A woman who combines the worst traits of a maco (toad) and a cacata (tarantula). She represents the absolute lowest a man can stoop just to get a girl. Unlike lesser categories like the grillo (cricket), maco, or cacata, a Macata cannot be made tolerable by alcohol, no matter the quantity or quality of the rum. A man who goes for a Macata does so with full awareness, regardless of how wasted he is. (In the Dominican Republic, maco, cacata, and grillo are slang terms for different levels of unattractive women).

Guy 1: Man, there are too many dudes and too few women here, even the crickets are taken! Once I finish this bottle of rum I am going to move in on Clemencia, even if she is a toad! Guy 2: Well man, you missed out, that sleaze Santiago is already all over her. If you do not want to go home empty-handed you will have to take Josefina the Macata! Guy 1: Shit, I even sobered up!
