Is it true of Argentineans?!?

Question

Im moving to Argentina in the spring and someone told me Argentineans don't like non-european looking people.. is it true?!

Please be honest with me.

Answer 1

you will find racism, like you will find in any other country.

I live in USA, and no other country is as racist as this one.

So, don't worry, Argentineans are very friendly and open.

Have fun.

Answer 2

I am Argentinian and here people are used to seeing tourists from all around the world and we don't discriminate for that.

You can come and have a great time.

Answer 3

I am an Argentine living in Miami, FL,  Argentines are  very open minded, specially if you are a  english speaking coming from USA you will not have any discrimination problem and actually you will find that people will give you more attention and be even more friendly to you that to any other local.

For sure you will have a very nice time in Argentina and I guarantee that, at least you, will not suffer any discrimination.

Answer 4

First of all, I live in Argentina.

Argentinians discriminate sometimes, but that's usually related to the MANY people that come to the country from the border countries because most of us look like europeans, and immigrants don't. That's something that happens here, as it probably happens in most countries around the world when it comes to people that is someway "different" because of their skin colour, their culture, or whatever.

I personally enjoy meeting new people from outside Argentina :) Are you coming to Buenos Aires? What are you planning to do here?

I really hope you enjoy your stay !

Answer 5

Well being honest we don't like too much peruvians,people from bolivia and chilean people.

Of all the countries in South America they tend to be the most racist just b/c their background is composed of white europeans, but that does not mean they are all like that keep an open mind and you might be surprised. Plus it's a very beautifull country
