/Sounds like "tah" (as in "tar") + "PAH" (as in "park") + "oh" (as in "oh")/
Someone in the closet, hiding their sexual orientation and living a double life in the Caribbean. Tapao literally means 'covered' and captures that secret-keeping weight. In the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, and Cuba, it often refers specifically to a gay man who isn't out.
“Everyone knows he's in the closet except himself.”
“He came out after years of hiding.”
