What Brought You To Buenos Aires?

[Dublin2BuenosAires]

Not that Mr Rooney can't speak for himself, but you missed his point entirely. Obviously there is corruption in Argentina, as you mention. But it's chump change compared to the trillions of dollars that get grafted in the US. How many billions randomly went missing in Iraq? Or how about that bailout swindle?

Suggest someone watches the Vice documentary on US spending in Afghanistan. The poor Argies have a lot to learn.

Once you make corruption a bipartisan policy and institutionalise it under the name of national security, then you can say you've arrived. Next you can move the financial markets around as you please, do business with people you said you wouldn't and even manipulate exchange rates and LIBOR rates. The amount of money are so astronomical they cease to be real. It's that old trick of the devil, hiding in plain sight.

Argentine corruption has been socialised, like European debt. American corruption is only available to the hyper rich and the military industrial complex.

Las hermosa Mujeres and just happned to catch one in the process. Argetinian women are just awsome. Not all of them of course. But I would never go back to the dramatic gold digging queens in the northern hemeshpere.

Woow, do you think so?

If I was single I do not think that I would want to be with an Argentine woman, they try to control your life in every single way and always talk about their mum. They are quite annoying to be honest.
Once that you are with a German girl(the way they talk, act, behave and THINK), you can not ever in your life go back to date an Argentine girl.

Well that is my perception.

Had a german ex, wouldnt make any sweeping statements other than it's not an experience I would have sought to repeat. Still, now I don't have to worry about that. Happily married to an Argentine woman who I wouldn't recognise from your clumsy description.

I find stereotypes way more annoying. However, here's a nice joke which not everyone finds funny...I love it, based on my experience!

Two germans parents have a child, a girl. The child doesn't speak for the first few years of it's life. They worry, they fret, for years they speak with doctors and psychologists. All to no avail.

When their daughter hits 15, they buy her a cake. She tastes the cake.

"Ufff, this cake is horrible" she calmly states.

Delighted, the parents speak up. "Oh my, this is fabulous, we were so worried, why did you wait so long to speak??"

"Up until now, everything was satisfactory".

I make lots of sweeping generalizations myself, so no complaining here, but that is a pretty broad and funny one... The northern hemisphere includes most of the land and thus most of the people in the world. As a Norwegian (as northern as it gets almost) I see myself and my countrywomen as maybe the least gold digging in the world. As Magico says, stereotypes can be pretty annoying, but I do find that, on the average, Argentine women seem more dramatic than northern Europeans for instance.

An Argentine woman I know, married to a Scandinavian for 40 years now, says that Argentine woman + Scandinavian man is the perfect combo: both get more than they excepted, as Argentine woman is not used to the man doing so much around the house etc., and same for the man - he is not used to the woman doing so much, so they both end up happy. TOTAL generalization of course but kind of amusing! The other way around, however, can be more tricky as the Scandinavian woman is usually very independent and not very jealous, which doesn't always jive with the Argentine man. Once again, disclaimer for generalizations!

Yes I know the girls in Argentina can be a bit controlling but with all the Macho men running around its no wonder. Plus I was in the older crowd so most of the women I was dating were a bit more mature and settled into life. By the time you are my age or the age I was back then you should have functional crazy woman radar. This radar picks up the siginal on the controling crazy ones pretty quick and then you just pass on that one.

But Argentinian women in my experience can be very very attrative, down to eath and allot fun. Just playful and life enjoying. I have to give the women of Argentina 5 stars with the expection of, well you know who
