Ok I am an Italian man! Yay! What do I win?
Well, generalizing is always a little wrong, but there definitely is some common trait in the ways Italian men have when it comes to relationships with women.
- Watching women and commenting about them is the National Sport, both with your friends or by yourself.
- We don't understand at all the concept of "happily single", most of us need women in their lives, constantly.
- We like to fantasize about an unknown woman, to dream, to be galant and chivalric, women are special and they deserve special treatment.
- But we also like to womanize just for the fun of it sometimes, especially new generations are growing more and more cynical about love and relationships, and more interested in simple easy sex (both girls and boys).
- We don't usually betray more than other countries men, probably we have more chances as we seem to appeal more to women (will it be cause we're active, funny, brilliant, intelligent, and handsome? Who knows!

), and a man is easy prey for temptations!
- For many Italian men romanticism is a must, we have feelings and we love to express them, add to it the fact that we know very good how to express them, also thanks to a beautiful language.
Now let's take a look in the mind of a man (which'd be me btw

):
When I'm in a train for University and getting boredfor example, I may notice a beautiful girl. We have many beautiful girls here, so there must be something particular that draws the attention.
I start trying to understand something of her from what I see, if she's a real killer I start dreaming of an approach, just a friendly thing you know!
If the situation evolves good and the girl seems not to have a boyfriend, I'll try to find an alibi to talk to her, and from the very first conversation I'll try to put between the lines a strong hint to the fact I find her delightful and wonderful

From that on, anything can happen.
Many Italian men do this thing often, so chances are he'll try to talk with many women although he just does with 1% of the women he'd like to approach. And from just that 1% we got a fame of womanizers! How unfair!
What I really can't understand is the way many people in other countries (I've noticed this in England, France and Switzerland) can be so untouched by so many women around them!
In the London subway every man was deeply immersed in their free "London Lite" as if all their world was reduced to it. Me and my friend by the way were making a long discussion about how beautiful eyes can dignify the ugliest of women, or telling each other where the best ones were
All this can seem a bit vulgar and exaggerated, but you have to understand that we don't just look at the body!
We're incurable romantics and we think of the woman as a whole of body and soul, we're interested in her world, in all she is, not just how she looks!
Maybe our biggest flaw is that sometimes we tend to give inner qualities because of external beauty, i.e. thinking that a woman which looks sweet and tender IS sweet and tender. But that's a common thing to all men I think, and it is sometimes true, especially with the eyes.
Anyways we had this kind of discussion many times before, you can search on the forum for some of them if you're interested, I've found the last one for you, a very long thread.
Just please, don't update it as it was a bit controversial and it better stay buried in page 6 or so
