ken, the thing is this:

it would've been utterly rude and demeaning of me to simply ignore your well sought out attempt of trying to help me understand the differences between the men in europe and the ones laid ashore back home. a merely disappointing article. annoying with points of amusement though once shared with the following madrileno and prime time roman seductioionist me and him met on clear grounds with our views on outsiders stupidity. i cant call myself anything but I've been on enough swooning dates to last twenty years worth of tuna cans.

a little girl can run into disney land and almost die from its gripping attempt to catch her in and eat her like a ball rolling down a hill for ten hours. this can happen for three months and she wont be bored as shes sliding through a new land with offers. included:. instead of seeing ugly strangers all day shes captivated with the huge ears of dumbo and gets to ride on top of a mountain while feeling dizzy after sitting through circular motioned moving teacups. my point is that you can send any american to europe and simply by its lack of modern effort, ancient bricks and tassels --immediately LOVE prevails. men can find some unable though sometimes able foreigner a little appealing depending on the size shape and overall package. it should be the same here as it is anywhere else but the difference i think is the depth. in any sense there's guys who are all the same molded into their natural forced womanizing ways just as there are ones who find something special and know some things special willingly enough to share it with a little someone who manages to snag some attention for a well worth while. the deal of difference is really nothing. because of the environment european men are surrounded by whether its there mother's tight leash and lack of need for rebellion or the fact that they're these old rebuilt ruins everywhere. though, i think, it could be the fact that they know the map, geography something that most americans gripe with---kidding-- the style of life is homier, and can that make a man more romantic and inclined to take the ten extra steps to swoon you off your feet? maybe. im sure it depends on the father. jk im sure it depends on his motives, im sure it depends on the nature of things. on the person in any case they are as i can simply tell much more polite. respectable, even in their way to pick you up and take you over... maybe its just that it works. they buy you drinks easily enough to lay the cards out for you.

Ive been tallying the differences between madrid and SF so far noticing the lights, here remaining in an exact almost romantic almost misty dim shade. low clouds as to imagine oneself touching the skys ceiling while only moving an inch. the metro and buses are very clean as opposed to the shit we ride filled with trash and old bitten spit out seeds. the old women with their fur coats run everywhere and sometimes give you this ranged look of disapproval . depending on the area the moood is different. i think the madrilenos left here have high standards of life. they relax when wanting to relax and they work when times permitted. through many conversation i've noticed how degrading america looks from europe's point of view. most people are damply into visiting new york though no one rests interested in our politics and way of living. i dont know if way of living can even be defined nor do i know enough to speak about anything factual , but im just thinking about all these things and here i feel more embraced less cold and yesterday it was actually snowing.

but i couldnt really write about this. becuas e i'm not a guy nor fully european. but here's a real life version of what a real euro moving man thinks:

Next topic: What about us, what about "Euromantics"?

Mmm... I'm seeing a new point of view.

Obviously, everything depends on the culture, the way of living, the clichés. Taking this into account, let's go for it:

An american woman coming to Europe might be subconsciously thirsty of mediterranean sunbathed men talking with a whispering exotic accent they don't even understand while having a typical food which is not McDonalds under the lights of a picturesque terrace in a hidden little old street ten minutes away from a 500 years old monument created by the guy's ancesters.

I know I'm exagerating, but like South Park does - have I ever talked about that show? - this exagerations are in the end slight distorted portraits of REAL things. Ok?

Europe, physically, historically, with it's charming cities, seems a very beautiful place where the most magical dates can happen, where "making love in the sea while watching the lights of Barcelona" seems to sound better than "fucking in a car in front of the San Francisco bridge".

That girl wasn't right. We're obviously different because we've raised influenced by these cities' shapes and by these old countries histories which maybe America doesn't have the same way, but I'm sure if she had met an american guy living in Rome for the past 2 years he would have behaved the same way, taken her to the same spots, trattorias...

I don't believe in national clichés. I don't know too many american guys: Joe from Oregon seemed to be an American Pie like guy. Ken seems to be more of an intelectual guy.

I don't believe in national clichés. That bitch was judging a whole culture which was never owned specifically by the single guys she met. She was assigning them all the good things of something which is not individual.

Ken, don't worry, being "european" the way you think is not just a number on a passport. It's only on your personal behaviour. Euromen may just take profit of the enviroment. So, why wouldn't you be able to do the same thing?

Who's romantic is romantic, here and in China.
