    [/I] smaller framed, shorter and with smaller breasts in my experience anyway. In Spain/Italy anyway. That said Spain now has the highest levels of childhood obesity in the EU so things are changing.[/QUOTE]

    Well, they do not eat like regular people to keep those frames, asian girls can eat whatever and still very skinny, this is not the case, if you see a colombians (sofia vergara as example) she is not fat, but she is neither "skinny" and same goes with brazilians, puerto ricans and so on! spanish are not any different, many just tried way too hard!
    And yeah irish guys are way cooler than spanish dudes in general

    No, the mates I'm referring to would be exceptionally good looking. They'd get a lot of attention at home but not here.
    By the way, always different experience living somewhere than visiting. It's as if the locals can sense you're just in the place for the crack. And also the kinds of bars you might go to as a tourist would be more like pick up joints. There's place they get plenty of attention mainly because the guys presume they're here for fun and fun only.

    Maybe they don't go for foreigners as much then yeah. Is it not the same in Ireland though? Tonnes of Irish men seem to have foreign partners but I don't think the same could be said for Irish women? They seem to want to stick to their own, massive generalisation I know but I think it's true. You living abroad are a different case.

    I reckon there's a fair bit to that B. I've found broadly similar in other countries.

    That said historically there's evidence of the opposite from genes. Women tend to travel more than men. Male gene's tend to stay "local". You even see this in small towns in Ireland. You tend to find way more single men in their 30's than single women of that age. They tend to leave for bigger populations.

    Just from what I've gathered over the years... As Socialite said "yeah irish guys are way cooler than spanish dudes in general" and in my opinion Latin women tend to like Irish men(tm) because we usually come across as culturally less sleazy than many the local guys. We also tend to take ourselves less seriously and have less of the "machismo" stuff going on and beleive it or not ladies of AH we're generally less chauvinistic. You see something similar with some from Eastern European countries too. The men can be more "harsh" than Irish guys With Scandinavian women this would be less of a draw, because they don't have that macho stuff to nearly the same degree as say Italy. Both genders here tend to be more easy going full stop. Massive generalisation of course, but somewhat true I reckon.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Oh didn't you get the memo? Were ugly, hideous munters that no one would touch with a barge poll. Women from Foreign are far superior to use sewage monkeys.

    Never fancied foreign guys when I lived in Ireland, mainly because I didn't meet many. Seems the guys didn't mingle with the natives like the women. I never came across any bar tourists in my day-to-day business. My foreign friend in Ireland were all female. Not too sure though. Probably another reason for it. But as you said, when Irish women go abroad, it's different. Almost all my female Irish friends live in "foreign" and have foreign boyfriends.

    Spanish girls are a bit like the Italian girls they are beautiful up to about 25 then they get hairy arms and grow mustaches - check out your local chipper.:D

    And I don't think Spanish women know much about Irish men specifically though. At least in my experience. Are you talking about the ones living in Ireland?The Spanish have a tendency to put all Northern European into one group, so they might find Northern European men less sleazy and chauvanist as supposed to Irish men specifically. I hear "You Northern Europeans are...." on an almost daily basis.

    One of the thing me fella liked about me was my desire to be independent and the fact that I travelled on my own for a year appealed to him. That's definitely not the done thing among Spanish women. Spanish women won't do anything alone (that's not knocking them, they just like to do things with friends..it's more fun....I can't blame them). They wouldn't even have a coffee on their own in a bar generally speaking. Same goes for the men though. Some guys might find that intimidating but some like it. Not sure what my point is...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,797 ✭✭✭✭hatrickpatrick


    Ask yourself, have you ever met a Spanish girl you'd call a b*tch?
    Seriously, in my experience they're just really nice people. I've known a few guys who've gone out with Spanish girls an I've never seen the girls giving then a hard time. They don't try to 'whip' their guys and take the 'friend' part of boyfriend seriously.

    That's so true, of both Spanish and Italian girls. I've been told and seen for myself that if a girl goes alone into an Italian bar or birrira, she gets too much hassle off guys in there.

    Aren't Italian women famously unapproachable however? Ok I've not really met any so I don't take this as Gospel, but I've been told by those who have or spent time there that they are money/style/fashion/image obsessed and expect their men to live up to 6 pack metrosexual underwear model standards.

    Its not fake tan, its ground up oompa-loompa. Wonka modernised the factory and well had to do something with the oompa-loompa's and ....well....it turns out in ground up form he was able to market them as miracle anti-wrinkle creme:eek:

    Sorry to burst your bubble but having lived here for almost 3 years, I've met plenty of bitches. And they don't whip their men? Are you havin' a laugh? Spanish men are the most whipped on the planet! And I see arguments in public almost on a daily basis. Don't get me wrong, I like them but your comment above is just plain wrong, I'm afraid.

    But they (the Spanish men and women) don't do anything alone. They wouldn't even get a coffee alone in an empty bar during the day. It has little to do with men cracking onto them and women get hit on in Northern European countries too. They move in groups...that's their culture.

    :) Yea that bit can be irritating/a culture shock in other ways though. They can be very clingy with boyfriends. I can text at super high speed and that was learned by going out with a couple of them(one was nearly texting on the hour). They seem to need to be constantly in contact. Not stemming from a jealousy thing either, they just seem to need more contact and to never be alone. The jealousy aspect seemed to be higher among Italian lassies(and French). Certainly higher contact required by comparison to Irish women. Going out with an Irish woman after was a shock to the system. "Hang she's not texted me in the last three hours. Oh god has she been run over!!:eek:" :D

    +1000. I was surprised at that one myself. Like you in my experience Spanish(and Italian) guys are much more "under the thumb" in long termers. The macho facade is just that, a facade. It's in play at the early stages, but down the line it's soooo not. And as for arguments in public. There's not nearly the same cultural reticence about public displays of emotion in Latin cultures compared to here. This goes for public displays of affection and dissatisfaction. Have a full on agrument with an Italian lady and Oh. My. God. You'll know you've been tangoed. :eek::D Though refusing to get into it like a local might really freaks them out. Steam outa the ears time.

    Oh yea and bitches and their male equivalents are everywhere in every culture.

    Needless to say all of the above are generalisations. I was lucky in the sense I didn't get(with the exception of one) the publicly histrionic latin stereotype. Nor the bitch. Nor the ballbreaker. Did get the "clingy" though. That's a lot less a generalisation IMHO.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    So we like em cause they allow us to make good quality, non inbred babies.

    AH answer: Cause they have fit bodies, nice natural tans and nice bewbs.

    But we don't marry them, most stick to their own race and even class with-in that race.

    The best looking race of people women wise I ever seen was the Koreans. I lived just by a Korean neighbourhood in LA. Lovely looking, nice people as well.

    100% with the Korean thing. Lived there and have a Korean girlfriend. No offence to our own beautiful ladies but it would be hard to go back! Well after 8 pints anything is possible!!

    Men are attracted to rare or exotic features. Women are attracted to more common features... Apparently anyway.

    Yes Italian women are stunning and so stylish, but from my expierance they are just not much fun. They are more about good clothes and good food then say having a few drinks and having the craic. I have met the odd Italian who likes to let loose and have a laugh but they were all from the South of the country.

    Spanish women however are IMO way more fun. They are just more like the Irish in ways as they do like to party more than the Italians. But I have to say in Dublin anyway for every good looking Spanish girl there are 3/4 not so good looking girls also. And I say that as a guy who has always had a thing for that type of look (Dark hair and dark eyes).

    South Americans top the list for me though.

    Brazilians and Venezuelans have both the looks and also the fun factor. ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 965 ✭✭✭CucaFace


    And for the record Irish women are beautiful too.

    Well those who try to stay natural and don't cover themselves with this ridicules orange paste. I still can't figure out why they think this looks good.

    For me anyway, less is more when it comes to make up which is maybe why I find these foreign women so attractive. They seem to use far less makeup. Again not all Irish women do this, but there is a large section of women who cake themselves up with an inch layer of make up whenever they head out.

    I know you will say they have a natural darker complexion so they don't need to use so much makeup but trust me Irish women look far better natural then with this horrible orange goo on their faces.

    I have a lot of friends now who are from South America and they (The Males) think Irish women are really beautiful, but extremely hard to get.
