How do Italian women compare to American women?

Question

How do women in Italy compare to women in the US? Are they shy, easy to talk to? How are thier attitudes different? What do they think of American guys? I am planning on going to school in Rome so I want to have a heads up as to what I can expect when I get there. Also, what is it like for an American living in Italy (Rome)?

Answer 1

Well...

I am Italian, I live in Italy and I married an American woman.

Think about this.

Answer 2

in addition to the other comments above about Italian women, which are generally true, it is also true that they tend to peak at about 16 years old.  after that, it's generally a long, slow, decline, and the final product can be quite dismal: i.e., even the most gorgeous ones, like say the Sicilian chick in the original Godfather films ("Appolonia"), had a moustache, thick glasses, dried-out hair, and a rear end the size of a golf cart by the time she was 25.

Answer 3

they are hot, but thanks to george w americans arent that well liked these days, plus the fact that many view americans as stupid,lazy, arrogant louts.

Answer 4

They DONT shave their ARM PITS!!! Eeeeeeeek! They insist you meet their families.But they do like american men.

Answer 5

when in rome,,,do as the romans do!

Answer 6

All comparisons are odious, someone famous once said. The culture of Italy makes Italian women more concerned about family, and that means they want the approval of their family on any men they are potentially interested in. It's really a good idea--more opinions make for a more informed decision. I wish I'd listened more to my Italian brothers about who I dated. They saw things I didn't see.

And, yes, if you are not good to Italian women, their entire family will indeed come after you about it. Familia is a GOOD thing. As far as saying they don't age well, I have two words for you: Sophia Loren. They have become much more career minded over the years, however. If you want kids, you will not have much luck with Italian women. American girls are the ones who want to make babies, as well as having a career.

Answer 7

No idea.  But, in my high school I knew  a few girls who came from italian families and they're pretty easy to talk to (they were born here though).

Answer 8

italian women are learning to be just as mean and self absorbed as american women now

Answer 9

Itally is very expensive, I travel there with work every two weeks, the girls are fantastic, very pretty and normally thiner than american girls, they dont ask for alot but are traditional as far as wanting you to meet thier families if you want a relationship

they like american men as we are normally more ambitious than the men they normally meet

Answer 10

Better Cooks!!!!

Answer 11

well   just  like americans there are some peple that are shy some out going  etc...same difference  in Italy ...why not go into an Italy chat room...and find out more or make friends

Answer 12

i don't know exactly how American are but most things I've eared here are stupidity !! in particular at Rome women are great, shave hairy under the pits of arms(!!!!!)..and the comment of richman was based on an film? or what? maybe in Italy he just visited the neuropsychiatric ward in Rome...

I've seen some American women and are generally most fat, worst dressed, bad cookers...

than, go to Rome and try to be yourself, be sweet and nice... if they know that you are American and have some difficult will help you... have a nice trip

Answer 13

I was in Italy twice.  Even the beautiful women don't shave their pits.
