Let's say there's this American guy living in Medellín - a good looking young guy with flowing blonde hair - that is a really good singer and likes to do karaoke and sing with local bands when he gets the chance. And let's say that when he does this - quite regularly - he attracts a lot of attention - especially from the female species.
Do you think a guy like this is putting himself in danger? Does a guy like this have to tone it down and live a little more on the quiet side (at least while in public) to stay out of trouble in Colombia?

justino says on May 27, 2006, 13:26: Hmmmm... If you let us both loose in the jungle without a razor or tweezers, I'd definitely win because I bet Mauricio has a unibrow. Still, he's a good looking guy, I can't deny. I'm only 3 times prettier than him. The fake blonde guy (yeah, that's right, I see those roots), 10 times prettier, easy.

caulfield2 says on May 27, 2006, 14:27: Well, as Morphus says, if you have blue eyes, it does make you stand out. Opening your mouth and speaking heavily accented Spanish does the rest of the trick, usually.

Okay, I'm not as good looking as Mauricio... not even to me... but maybe somebody out there thinks I look better ;-). Thankfully, beauty is very subjective.

utopiacowboy says on May 27, 2006, 16:29: What is it about Colombia that attracts every gringo loser on the planet to go there imagining he is Brad Pitt? I always imagine that I'm George Clooney. I hear the Ethiopian chicks are hot - maybe you guys should go to Addis and check them out. They go nuts for a white boy.

justino says on May 27, 2006, 16:42: Hmmmm I find that I have the same thoughts, UC, when I see a seemingly nice, beautiful girl with a dopey looking guy with no charm, intelligence or personality. But really who are we to judge? There's a reason that those two are together. If the girl was drawn to him for money or security, then hell - they're really a good match for each other. Mutual users...

justino says on May 27, 2006, 16:58: Mr. Clooney I'll have to go back into sincere mode now, as it just hit me that you guys don't know me like I know you (from frequent reading).... and I seem to be making the wrong impression with my tongue-in-cheek posts (which have brought about an association with the term "gringo loser" - one that I'd like to shed).
