<p>^lol
I imagine the girl might feel threatened by a real italian. " Hey, How 'y doin'? whhAt?" ehhe.</p>
<p>I'm oh so confused at this point.</p>
<p>Confused about what biatch?</p>
<p>Who's my biatch?</p>
<p>cataxxx,</p>
<p>I'm actually Romanian, born and lived there until I was around 9 years old. I've lived in the US since then, went back home a number of times, and maybe I can offer some prespective on this whole thing. I'm a female by the way.</p>
<p>I have found that a lot of people say European girls are hotter. Through my experience I have found that Romanian girls over 95% etc are all 'girly' and spend a good amount of time dressing up, doing their hair, etc. which makes them look quite attractive. In Romania my friends would dress up when going to a grocery store and you probably know that most Romanian old and young get 'dressed up' when going out. On the other hand, in the US the atmosphere is much more comfortable. People don't feel the need to dress attractively wherever they go. Students here will put put on a pair of sweat pants and go to school while in Romania you never saw a girl in sweat pants at school. Students here will sometimes go to a class in pajama pants, a phenomenon that you will never see in Romania. The atmosphere here overall is just so much more comfortable and people don't feel the need to look good all the time everywhere they go.</p>
<p>There are quite a great deal of hot girls here but there's also so much more diversity. You'll get butch girls, girls who like nothing but sports, etc etc. and that is what I blelieve makes it seem as if Romania and Europen girls are 'hotter'. Up till now you saw nothing but girls that spend time to fix their looks and now you get to see some that are more laid back. I for instance never related to Romanian girls, I can never put on makeup everyday and wear what people would call popular clothes. I look fine and on the rare occasions that I will put on makeup or whatnot I look like a Romanina girl you posted.</p>
<p>So, even though Americans have all types of girls they also have all types of ethnicities which can turn into some what guys would call hot looking girls. Latinas, asians, middle eastern all have fine looking ladies and you dont really have that diversity in Romania.</p>
<p>Did any of what I just said make sense?</p>
<p>The question now is are you 'hot'?</p>
<p>Thanks a lot for the information, macinici. Nice way to end your post :). I look ok, I guess...or that's what I like to think. Diversity is good...I'm sure I won't miss the girls here, or at least not too bad. I never had a foreign girlfriend, so I think it'll be very interesting.</p>
<p>Macinici: I wasn't in Romania long enough to find out: though there are a lot of girly girls, is there an emphasis placed on education and character? Once I was at a dinner party with 2 women, one of whom was French, and 4 guys. Afterwards on the way home, we all agreed that though she was actually plain looking, the French woman blew us away with her charm and apparent warmth. She had us all eating out of her hand. She was refined, really. And I've had this experience much more with European women and women from other places. Maybe you could call it a form of dressing up her personality. Europeans seem in general to prefer women who are smart/refined as well as "hot."</p>
<p>The other thing -- and this goes for both men and women -- yes people in the US dress more comfortably in a sense. But they also often let themselves go. You can go to any number of European and Latin countries and see 50-60 year old women who are downright sexy because they keep themselves adorned in style. (Older women aren't my thing, but it's just true.) In the States, a lot of them this age are wearing sweats and puffing out.</p>
<p>You're post was a great post. Thanks.</p>
<p>I can't really speak for the education and character aspect due to the fact that whenever I've visited I was quite young (last time i was soph in hs) and i always stayed at my grandparents who live in farming villages. So I really was not around people to have deep meaningful conversations. I can, however, say this: one of my friends is intelligent for sure and is smart/refine and hot looking and so is my cousin. Beyond that I'm sure that there's intelligent girls but I cant speak as to the general amount or trend.</p>
<p>I agree with the older women comment as well. My grandpa visited and was dumbfounded when she saw older women at stores wearing sweat pants. We couln't even get her to wear pants on the front lawn of the house cause people might see her and think she doesn't take care of her looks (she's 60 something).</p>
<p>Regarding your "letting themselves go" comment: I do agree with that but I think a portion (just a certain portion) has to do with being such a busy society as well as wealthy. US has reached the point where it's easy for a person to buy quality fashinable clothes with less than a day's work wage so there's no point of trying to show off your clothes off when you know the rest of the population can own the same thing if they want too. On the other hand this is not the case for many eastern European countries where people have to plan clothing into the budget. Most people can't just go to a mall and buy 4 outfits at a time like you can here. Therefore, clothes there still display a certain type of wealth and being well off. </p>
<p>I do believe that there's a high chance that as others reach the level of the US their societies will start letting go as well, as much as I do not want this to happen tough.</p>
<p>"On the other hand this is not the case for many eastern European countries where people have to plan clothing into the budget(...) Therefore, clothes there still display a certain type of wealth and being well off. " - I don't think so. The way people dress is a matter of education and style and has nothing to do with money. I don't dress up to show my social status, but to feel comfortable in my outfit. I was brought up to wear clean and decent clothes even when I go to throw the garbage and it has nothing to do with how wealthy my or the rest of the families are. Dressing up properly is a means to show the respect you have for your peers. I agree that it would be much more comfortable to go to school naked when it's hot outside, but it's not socially acceptable. If I go by macinici's theory, wealthy people in Romania wear tuxedos in the summer just because they're more expensive than bathing suits.</p>
<p>Side question: Are there still many orphans in Romania?</p>
<p>As for girls, come to California or New York...amazing diversity.</p>
<p>whatever </p>
<p>any hot girls here right now????</p>
<p>Orphans?? What does that have to do with anything? Don't be so narrow-minded, my friend. The number of orphans here is the same as in any part of the world, I don't know why everybody has the impression that Romania is full of orphanages. I personally don't know any orphans, and haven't seen an orphanage yet. If you wanted to somehow be sarcastic, johnnzen, your reply was very primitive. If that's all that comes to your mind when you think of my country, then you should read more.</p>
<p>this isn't really regarding the topic of the post but,</p>

<p>cataxxx: You are in for a bad time, my friend. I just watched that You Tube, and it just strengthened me in my conviction that Romanian women are very hot. I know that wasn't its main point, but let's put it this way, if I had to choose a wife by lotto -- any women in her 20s from the US or from Romania, it's Romania for sure.</p>
<p>I thought that crack about orphans was bizarre too. My question: are there still packs of wild dogs roaming Bucharest? Or was that cleaned up 10 years ago? Or do I have the wrong country?</p>
<p>Macinici: I bet you are ablaze.</p>
<p>Sorry to derail this thread but I only asked that question because I have researched Romania, esp. the rule of Nicolae Ceauşescu and the disasters he created by means of abortion ban. By the way, when the policy was first implemented, Romania had one of the highest, if not the highest orphan count per capita. He managed to increase the population of his country by a massive 32% in only two years by banning abortion.</p>
<p>If i'm wrong about this, I apologize. BBC & NYTimes spins international affairs at times.</p>
<p>Johnnzen: No harm done: We just thought you were going to try to adopt a 19-year-old orphan and make her your wife.</p>
<p>The problem with wild dogs hasn't been dealt with yet, unfortunately :(. The former mayor of Bucharest (who's our current president) euthanasiated a large number, but he didn't succeed to kill them all because of the animal organizations :). I hope that the girls here are not really that good looking and that the Americans will have more appeal to me. Anyway, if this doesn't happen, I'll return to my country after graduation, so I'm ok with it.</p>
<p>I'm am shocked that an actual Romanian citizen wouldn't know about the orphan problems. When the problem actually occured, it was ALL over television across the globe. Pictures of overrun, inhumane orphanages were run on all the news channels. Over 170,000 orphans appeared in just 2 years. For comparison, America had around 10,000 orphans in the 90's.</p>
<p>Doh, replace the first word in the above post with "I"</p>
<p>Are you obsessed with orphans???? THIS IS NOT A THREAD FOR ADOPTION! I know that there were many orphans in the past, but the problem has been dealt with. Get over it! It's like saying America is full of black slaves.</p>
