southernman comments on Are colombians more physical, in comparison to writing?

Being physical, High commendation Please don't take my comments as negative, no no, what I am addressing is to me a powerful tool of colombians to be expressive with few words. I don't know Kat 1, and I am sure she will not agree with all of my threds, and prehaps all of you too, but in general I notice this beautiful feature to the colombian way of life.Personally, I am a wordy person, and it baffles me that my girlfriend is not wordy too. However, I think I go through life talking too much at times, when I personally should either listen more, or be more expressive physically, there is nothing more beautiful than to see physical expression shown as a way to enjoy, and teach life.
I know many of you know how to write, and are no doubt great at it. These comment don't attack your inteligence, no no, these comments are a commendation to the beauty that the colombian culture display. Kat 1 is explaining this way better than I, because she understands the internal feeling about writing and physical, and she is explaining this understanding to all of us.
Again I see this beautiful addition to the way colombians communicate, understand, and explain through the physical expression

southernman comments on Are colombians more physical, in comparison to writing?

Writing Vs Physical Thank you all for your comments Kat 1 I could kiss you, you hit the nail on the head.

Colombian people, I think are very smart, people. I see a people (in my mind) who don't read much, but are so expressive physically. I thought maybe I was seeing things, but kat 1 help me to really put a diffinition on what I was seeing.

Colombians read, they have to, to survive like everybody else, but it seems that their specialty is physical. This is not a bad thing at all, everybody can't converse this way. This to me even explain why Colombian women are so enjoyed because of their ability to express thoughts, feelings, love, even hatred, anger in very physical ways. I see this is my girlfriend, her family and the few Colombians I met in Barranquilla, it is a very interesting concept because it challenges a relationship, in a good way. I am very expressive on paper and in person, so I can do both, but when a person can only do one, it can be a real challenge to maintain a great relationship, in all areas of life.

Some teach their children by giving them a book, others teach their children by showing and explaining what makes a book.

I think I would like to be shown for a while now, since I have read many books, and with the lady in my life, this can be very very interesting to say the least.

southernman comments on Customs in Colombia

He will log alright.... he is giving her some private tonsiltation, I mean consultation

southernman comments on Customs in Colombia

I don't understand You Just got married in January, and your wife is already getting phone calls from other men. Are you taking care of business at home or abroad?
I am curious as to you two dating relationship, did you guys discuss how you would deal with the opposite sex, not that, that matters, but did you at least go through the formality?

I only know that when a man call someone else wife at that late hour, it's taking care of business, but it is not business, you know what I am talking about.

Does your wife get upset when you tell her you don't want her talking to other men like that?

southernman comments on Craving Attention (Part Two), Addressing Colombiche

Colombiche I appreciate your comments, I think you should be frank on your job as you are on this post with most of your comments except the one you sent to ijwle (smile).

I would straightforwardly tell the person that there conduct is not professional, and if they can't be professional, please don't talk to me, this is business.

It is very sad when someone takes a person kindness for more than that.

Sometimes women in my business try to come on to me, because generally I am pretty laid back talkative fellow, but when I notice that they are getting too friendly, and I am sure that's what it is, I will pull them to the side and let them know, that I cannot deal with them in that way. I can be professional and kind, but i cannot flirt with you, and really this is part of some persons problem, they will flirt, but then when others flirt back or bring it on kinda of strong, the other person wants to slam on the breaks.

I am not saying that this is you, I am just sharing what happens when people try to innocently flirt.

In your case, you are just being nice and professional, I would let them know that you are prepared to keep it that way, but if they continued, you would not be able to be nice to them, because clearly he is taking all your friendliness for something else.

I would hope it that was my wife, she would get tough with those persons who CLEARLY have crossed your line and the line. I am sure your boss would not appreciate that line being crossed, and if it is fellow employees, do you know how to say sexual harrassment?

I read several articles on in Latina about Hispanic women who are being prey upon because of them trying to be nice, in fact one article the boss wanted his employee to dress a certain way, things like that, can you imagine how her husband would feel knowing that.

southernman comments on Are Colombians Poor, As They Are Projected To Be?

Mr Hollywood Economic gender means rich, poor, middle class, and if you are man, woman, white, black, hispanic whatever.

so whether one is rich, poor, middle class, whether man, woman, whether black, white, whatever, there are person who have never flown or stayed in a expensive hotel.

This is what I mean by economic gender.

southernman comments on Craving Attention (Part Two), Addressing Colombiche

I agree Colombiche, and I disagree a little You made alot of correct comments, and I agree to a point that women are basically the same, but in many respect they are different just as both genders male and female of colombian nationality and culture are different.

Language defines our culture, this is true because not race or culture does things the same, even down to very small details, and it is those detail, that make us different in some respects, the same in others.

Yes women are basically women, but also women are different based on what their culture has taught them as a people.

As I personally met a Colombian woman, I enjoyed her not because of how she looked, because for a long time I had not seen her, we just emailed, but in emailing she shared with me what she was like at heart, what she wanted in life, her goal, dreams, fears. I fell in love with the interior person, so that when we met over one year later, it did not matter to me what she looked liked. our hearts joined, and we knew that we wanted to be together. When we met, yes, I will admit I was pleasantly surprised by her looks.

Attention: She wants as much attention from me, as I want from her.

I do think americans have more baggage due to poor relationships, and so need and want much attention from their other.

I appreciate your comments, some a little over my head, I am just a plain meat and potatoes man, but I appreciate your wisdom.

But it I can make one more comment, I think that life is meant to be simple, this gives us opportunity to enjoy so many other things in life, like our families. Can I ask a question, are you upset because men and or people want to talk to you all the time, because you are nice to them?

No one likes to be hit on, or used as a sounding board all the time, but please don't adopt a rude approach to people, because they are taking your friendliness for flirtation, or whatever.

I only say this because everyone in the world or your community is not like that, so don't make them pay for the mistakes of a few others.

life is too short to go through it, and not enjoy who you really are.

I know I don't know you, but your post sounded a bit angry.

southernman comments on Craving Attention (Part Two), Addressing Colombiche

Colombiche I am waiting for your reply,

southernman comments on Craving Attention (Part Two), Addressing Colombiche

I don't know anything about blow up dolls..... by the time I am done giving so much attention to my Colombian woman, I don't have time or energy for a blow up doll. I just don't think I could get the same affect with a blowup doll, except for them not talking back to me. But then again, the words my Colombian woman say to me, I would much rather talk to her, than a blow up doll.

But I understand that some may get more action with the dolls (big Smile)

southernman comments on Are Colombians Poor, As They Are Projected To Be?

Kat1, costajunkie, kernow62, calipro, platano, nat718, Impressed The people in the airport at Miami were Colombian, and you are right, they could have been just visiting, traveling to Barranquilla, I am not sure nat718.

Six of you that posted before this post, confirmed very much what I have been thinking and saying, which leads me to point.

I know there are good and bad in all cultures, and nationalities, I think we all agree on that. Colombians have been given a BAD RAP for too long, just like other nationalities have also. As a whole their dress is awesomely beautiful for the money they make. As an american, I don't take care of my personal things, the way Colombians do, I am impressed.

Their homes? I was in the homes of Colombians, and except for the little lizards running around, their homes are clean, neat, and you feel this sense of warmth, and love. That might sound a little corny, but it's the truth. I had no shame eating in their home, and the food was delicious, I was fixed chicken rice, and it was very good.

Money? while I was their my money was no good to them, and when I did spend money, they made sure I was getting the best deal, and was not being cheated. You are right too, they may not have much money but they try to save, and I think more americans who are married to a Colombian, have women who save good, than those who don't.

I am talking about Colombians because this site says it should be about Colombians, when their is an american site, I will go to it and comment on americans.

Everybody I talk to say that Colombian clean like there is no tomorrow, what lessons we all can learn from that (Smile).

People who come on this site and put down colombians, maybe you have had some bad experiences with them, maybe you just got taken by some of them who saw a vulnerable side in you. Maybe you met a person and they convinced you of one thing but they acted another. I am not saying that makes one dumb or stupid, I am just saying that one may not have been as careful, it could happen to anyone, even myself.

However, for the six of your comments, the defense rest with this fact. Colombians have been given a bad rap, and people on this site who wants to bash them, need to go and stay with those I have stayed with in Colombia, you will truly leave Colombia, wishing you could visit over and over again.

THEY ARE TRULY A BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE, CONTRARY TO OPINION

I disagree a little with the comments about poor people not flying or staying in a hotel, I think many poor people have not flown or stayed in a nice place, but I think this applies to every economic gender, but by far no doubt more poor not flying or staying in nice hotel (in almost every nationality).

southernman comments on Are Colombians Poor, As They Are Projected To Be?

Platano I agree with you completely, they are indeed fantastic, I think.

southernman comments on Tied for 2nd

Camillo I watched him and he was excellent and the purse 450,000 dollars, not bad for second place.
I think at first he was not as relaxed, but then he started to mellow out and his game improved greatly.
If he concentrates on his game and not tiger woods, he will beat tiger soon. Tiger is the worlds best golfer at this time, so it is hard to come up against him, he can make a mistake or too, but camillo and persons like him cannot afford mistakes.
So if camillo just concentrate on HIS game and have fun with it, he will soon be world great too.
Excellent game by camillo, and I am not a fan of his, but he is a good golfer and he deserves his props. I would like to see him take Tiger woods place one day as the worlds greatest golfer.

Tom who tied second with him was great too and he could have beat Tiger, but it just wasn't his day either.

black mamba I hate the private messaging is gone but my email address is crand42189 at aol.com
I would like to hear your comments to my comments, so if you see this message, hit me up.
I will be going to Barranquilla in the latter part of April, first part of May.
Hope you and your family are good.

southernman comments on I removed the private messaging function

Private Messaging I truly understand that you had to stop the private messaging, and this is your forum, so you can do whatever you like, but it really would have been the kind thing to let everyone know you will be stopping that function, so people can get the emails, and or address. No one knew that this aspect would stop, but it would have been the noble thing to allow persons to move information that they want to move for their personal use.
Not trying to be rude ugly, I appreciate being let on this forum to use, but I have to speak my mind too.

southernman comments on Colombian Culture - Women

American Society & Maybe The World? In the United States, you hear a phrase that is called a Right Wing. Supposedly, this Right Wing is used to start, and finish the demise of a certain form of government, or people in power, in government. Who makes up this Supposedly Right Wing? Ask a million people, get a million different answers.

Just like this supposedly Right Wing in the USA, there is an influence, that is being used to destroy traditional family values, and this influence is gaining many victims, What is it? Ask a million people, get a million different answers.

The victims are males and females who allow themselves to influenced to give up their traditional family values, for money, materialism, power, drugs, lust, womens lib movement, equal power, etc...

So as a result, you have women who think, believe, and act just like a man, they don't feel they have to take care of their family children, husbands, homes the traditional way. But then you have men who beat, abuse, mistreat women, so therefore they don't love, cherish, their woman as a weaker vessel with honor, the traditional way.

So for the man who is from Canada, the whole world, but especially western society is messed up, and it is spiraling downhill.

I am 46 years old and I have been all over the united states, and anyone who has travel, lived, associated with western world, can see with blindfolds, that the family is messed up.

Men who have been in relationships that were bad, have learned that in some countries, there are a hugh numbers of womens, who have not been affected by this influence, these (Colombian) women have been taught to love and take care of your man, love your parents, love your children and take care of them, be intimate, sensual, tender, caring, loving, (thank you Black-mamba).

Why do these american men want a relationship? To aquire back what they lost, the traditional relationship where the man and woman fullfill their role in the family, to provide a nurturing, warm, loving, close knit atmosphere.

What is wrong with that? Nothing, but if we continuing listening to people who tell us that there is nothing wrong with the western world, many more persons are doomed .

There is a problem here, and it cannot be denied. I cannot say there is, or is not a problem in Colombia, because I am not Colombian, but the woman I met from Colombia (the woman many of you met), don't act like a woman, who don't have traditional family values.

Our prisons have never been more full than they are now, men are on the streets doing every kind of drug possible, children are taking their lives because they feel that their mom and dad, just don't care about them anymore.

So if a man can go to a Country and find a woman who wants those same traditional values, who wants to have children to bring up in a loving atmosphere, who enjoy their mom and dad, being a real family, no one can fault such a man.

This problem of the demise of the family is getting worse, so if you want a better chance at a traditional family life, find a american woman, or man, who values the Traditional Family, the right way (those values are bible based), or go to South America, and you won't have to look far, and you will see plenty of good women who have the strong family values you have.

southernman comments on miami layover

South Beach Amen Arthur Brode, the women of south beach are beautiful, and all kinds, but they won't give you the time of day.
When I went to Barranquilla, the women come up to you in the pool and ask what is your name, and when they get out of the water, they are hot, even women 40 years old are hot as a firecracker, and will have a nice time with you.

southernman comments on About colombian women

Colombian Women I think men who let their woman dance with other men, get off watching it.

It's not about being secure, it's about the man enjoying his woman only.

Women who dance sensual with a guy, and he and she is not married, is a lot less threathening, but hear again there should be some type of understanding, but if she is that sensual, then I think she wants him to think any way he wants to think.

If a woman doesn't know a guy well and she takes him out on the dance floor and she is touching him, gyrating her hips all up on him, looking at him with seductive eyes, She doesn't deserve to be mishandled, but if the guy is a freak, what do you think he is going to do?

You know the answer to that.

If the woman has a man, she needs to dance with her man like that only, you don't date, and or marry a man, to dance with other men.

Why didn't you stay single? Why didn't you consider the affect your dancing with a strange man or a familiar man, would have on your boyfriend or husband.

Vice versa for the man, if he is married to a beautiful woman, but he is going to ask a stranger to dance with him, and he is going to make all these suggestive moves on her, but it's just a dance, clean fun.

Have fun with your woman, your wife, you should have stayed single too, if one knew he wanted to let his hair down with a bunch ofwomen.

You can't control all the women, and if you could control all the women, you still can't control them.

Some mens harmone level just won't let them enjoy one women, the one they are married.

Some men should have remembered the Phrase "think deep before you leap"
If you like tip accross the field to enjoy what is not yours, remember, someone is going to do it to you. What one has at home will not remain faithful, if you are not faithful.

That don't have to be literally faithful, she can, and many times will cheat mentally, emotionally, and maybe physically, because as a man we have got to enjoy all we want.

The woman will or is entitled to do it too.

None of this is right, be we are not talking what is right or wrong per say.

southernman comments on First Time to Cartagena

First time to Cartegena I went In July of 2005, and enjoyed everybit of it, beautiful place, if you have an email address I can show you a few ofthe places we went to in Cartagena.

There is the fort, hugh Fortress used years ago, must tour this, but do not wear shoes, and do not dress up, you will regret it.

We went to a monastery ay up in the mountains that overlook All Cartagena.

Then we drove all over Cartagena, stopped at the beach which goes all around this city, breath taking.

Some things not to do.
1) people will try to sell you everything, hats, bottled water, jewelry, carvings, everything, if you buy from one, all will expect you to buy, don't buy anything except water.
2) don't dress up, when the people see person dressed up, this means money to them.
3)get a friend to take you around in a taxi, if you go by yourself, you will be fine, but everybody will bother you, trying to get you to buy.
4) we know a cab driver who is our friend who took us from Barranquilla to Cartagena for 50.00 dollars, this sounds like a lot, but he drove us all day, anywhere we wanted to go in Cartagena.
5)My fiance lives in Barranquilla and she took me and my son, we had a blast, nice hotels. Plus with her, she helped us from being ripped off money wise.

Feel free to write me crand42189 at aol.com

I will answer any of your questions and send you pictures of where we went in Cartagena.

southernman comments on Colombian culture and diamond rings

Rings The United States is a pretty country, there is money to be made. A woman with good education, good looks, smart, can land a job easy 50,000 dollars a year, I know several women I South east United states, that are doing this.
They drive expensive cars, have condos or own their home. These women date, but they don't keep boyfriends long.
Most guys just want to get between the legs, and move on.
The point is NOT guys getting between the legs, I know some guys on this site that will take it there regardless (lol).
The women equate material things, education, success, with happiness, but these same women cannot hold a man for many different reasons.
I would dare say that if such a woman saw value in a man, other than value in a 7,000 dollar ring, she would probably end up with a good man, and maybe the 7000 ring anyway.
It's about what is most important, if a woman thinks that having things, and stuff is most important over seeing a man for his internal worth, she will always come up short handed.
This sounds old fashion, but some, and maybe many colombian women won't even wear such a high price ring, for fear of someone cutting off her finger for the ring.

southernman comments on Colombian Culture - Women

Colombian Women Desi, I don't understand your comments, I was not insulting the Colombian woman at all, and none of my comments in this whole P&H posts, are insulting to Colombian women.

I am asking a question, that I would like an answer to, not if you want to belittle me for my question, please don't answer. I am from america, and I have heard that when women reach a certain age, MEN in Position of power and Hire, will look for women much younger, and I am adding prettier. I added that because I know a man who in Charge of a Bank in Colombia and he does have girls that he hits on that works for him.

I know this is everywhere, but it seems in my mind, and my little mind can be wrong, that women, when they reach a certain age in Colombia, men don't want to hire them,because of their age, even if they are very very intelligent, smarter than all of us put together on this site.

But I don't know, so I am just asking a question and all it takes is a answer like, well southernman, women who are this or that are or are not treated that way..............

Please try to remember that everyone don't know as much as you, and many are trying to enjoy the site, and comments, so please, if you must give people a hard time, then don't, just answer the question, and if no one wants to answer the question, then the only person interested is me, and that is okay too.

Please not trying to be rude, I am just a man learning, just like many of you have learned.

Maybe there are thread that discuss this, but there are also new people other than the oldster who would like to make a comment on the questions or statements or observations coming up NOW.

southernman comments on Colombian Culture - Women

Are Women Washed Up After A Certain Aged IN Colombia? It appears to me that women can be beautiful and have a great body at 35-50 in Colombia, but is it true that they are considered washed up, no good because the younger women compete for their jobs. Also is it true that the men in Colombia perfer the younger women because they are beautiful, and young, and the men want to go with the women.
I know women in Colombia that are 35-40 and their husbands have left them for much younger women, and I hear that this happens with jobs too.
A 35-40 year old woman is a prime age for a woman in US to get a job, many younger women 21-30 are not many that have their heads on straight to get to good power jobs.
Why does it appear that women 35-50 are no good for the job market?

When guys show pictures of girls on P&H, they always are pictures of girls who are young.

No one seems interested in the woman who is 35-50 but that has been kepted up well, why is that. You show women men 35-50, who have kepted up well, and they go crazy, why does it not appear to be the case with men and women.

southernman comments on Colombian culture and diamond rings

Black Mamba You married your man in the same year, very short time. Tell me what was it about him that made you know that he was for you, the ring?

Only joking, seriously what was it. Help us men to understand the feelings of a Colombian woman, to know that it was love at first sight.

I am asking because I have a wonderful Colombian woman, and sometimes, I scratch my head and say, this is not normal to be in love that fast, at least not from an american way.

But then I ask myself, maybe the american way is wrong anyway, because like the ring subject, you give an american woman a 2,000 dollar ring, she is going to go and get the big telescope at smithsonian, because she wants to see it, she thinks, it's not big enough.

But tell us, what was it that made you fall for your man, and share please the view of a Colombian woman, how she falls in love.

All you Men that know the Subject of Colombian women, take notes.

Black-Mamba, you have the floor.

southernman comments on Colombian culture and diamond rings

you have a point I was just playing around myself, thanks for your comments

southernman comments on Colombian culture and diamond rings

Tinto (HaHaHa) See I knew you would talk about my cheap ring (LOL), Hey man, that was all I could afford. Yeah, you are right, if you marry an american woman, you better buy a 3500 ring.
The matter of changing, you can't say that about every woman, is that what happened to yours?
if it is, then brother we need to talk (just enjoying myself)
seriously, I am covering all all this ground, and if she proves to be a bad apple, you know what to do with that don't you.

southernman comments on Colombian culture and diamond rings

Ring I Bought my Baby a $1,400.00 ring, and if she knew I paid that much for it, she would kill me in a loving welcomed kind of way.
Her exact words were to me, when I told her I will bring back a ring to claim what is mine, She said "All I want is you"
Nice gifts but continuous is the way to go, nothing too expensive, but add alot of love with it, and then borrow some if you think you will run out (of love), she will demand mucho love.
She will give more than you can ever stand, but it's nice trying to stand all of it.

southernman comments on Jealousy and colombianas...

Jealous Get use to it, my Colombian woman told me she is very jealous, does it bother me? Sometimes, but for the most part, I love it. My lady get Jealous because she can't see me in my city, it's not so much that she thinks I am cheating on her or something, she just can't see me,so, If I mention that I had a meeting with my secretary, she will quickly ask me, were you two alone, or when I get ready to go to my office, she will say, I don't want you in the office with your secretary.
If you treat your woman the best, she will not want you to be around any woman, other than herself.
These Beautiful creatures are jealous and possessive, and you have to love it or hate it, and depending on hhow you feel, it will determine you some of your life course with her.
I treat my woman like a queen, I live in the United States, she lives in barranquilla, do you think she is not going to be Jealous? Mine is very Jealous too, because she has not been in a relationship, I am her first, so this is a big factor too.
I went to Barranquilla to see my lady, we were in the resturant with all her friends, other lady friends, and some guys. One lady was talking to me, with my lady sitting next to me, and all we were talking about was nothing. I had my arm around my lady enjoying the touch of her delicious body, but do you know she went to the bathroom because she was jealous of me talking to her friends.
If I sat there and didn't say anything, then she might have said, I was being anti-social.
The beautiful things was, when she told me she was jealous, I remembered the conversation, and I felt bad that she felt bad, I don't ever want to make my lady feel bad or Jealous, I apologizedto her, and kissed and loved on her so much that she knew I was her and she doesn't have anthing to worry about, that day.
Tomorrow will be different, but I love it.
Not trying to tell you what to do dude, just sharing my experience.

southernman comments on Colombian Culture - Women

Are you Saying Are you saying that Colombian women are not intelligent?

There is nothing wrong with intelligent, self-confident women, are you saying that colombian women are no these things?

why can't a woman be all things? intelligent, self confident, sexy, loyal, humble, passionate, sensual, etc..?

remember many are married to Colombian women,maybe you are.

southernman comments on Colombian Culture - Women

Argentina Why don't someone do a thread and find good in that culture, from experience.

I am sorry if it appears that I am putting down american women, I am not.

I am taking the living conditions of both cultures, and I am concluding that, Colombian women with their beautiful faces, bodies, sensualness, sexy way, tenderness, caring, respectfulness, humbleness, coupled with the fact that they are economically disadvantaged (but rich enternally) have more to offer than many or most americans who are materially prosperous, and yet lack many things that would compare them to Colombians.

However, I am sure, if one looked High and low, he will find an american woman who comes very close.

I appreciate the opportunity to start this thread, because the love I have found in Barranquilla, makes me extremely happy.

I did not meet mine in a bar, and in addition, her family treats me like one of the children, with a whole lot of love, and not one of them have asked for one dollar, one peso from me. My lady says "I just want you."

To see this Colombian woman features, body wise, will send any to another planet without a ship.

She would not appreciate me posting her picture, but she is built beautiful, and her way (inside) is even more beautiful.

Thanks Dwmte

southernman comments on Colombian Culture - Women

dwmte Amen, Amen, I was taking the country road with my thread, another words, this was my point exactly.

When you factor in living conditions, you have a woman that is truly in my view a marvel.

My Fiance from barranquilla continuiosly tells me, all I want is you, I want you to feel like a mi rey, I want you to be proud of me, I want to protect you, care for you, give you much love day and night, I want to massage you, cook for you, go with you everywhere you go.

How many of these types of women would marry and move away and not want their immediate family helped, if they need it?

None, because they are human and they want to be loved and cared for like everyone else in the world, and they would hope that a little help could be given to their family, but it is worth it, because the love they give to you doesn't compare with what many many americans can or will do.

Dwte, thank you for your open and correct comments.

Sometimes, I feel that those who speak negatively might have had a bad experience , or are afraid of the four letter word LOVE.

Everybody can't handle it. My Fiance is poor, but she is so beautifully rich, I wish I had of found her years ago, but then years ago, I might not appreciated this kind of true love.

A man who has had a bad experience can enjoy such a beautiful woman, but he first needs to get rid of that experience, and come to Colombia not afraid to experience true love.

Again Dwte, If this thread did not continue anymore, the point has been well sounded by many, that, one can find a woman of any culture, and at times a good woman.

But a Colombian woman by far will excel, and I an american man, would be proud to care for my new Colombian family.

southernman comments on Colombian Culture - Women

Colombian Culture Do you know what is really interesting with this thread? When you re-read all the comments again non stop and meditate on all the comments that have to do with Colombian Culture & the Women, you will find more agreement that Colombian women are a breed that are wonderful to get to know.

Dispite the hardships that Colombian people go through, the women apply what they have been taught, to be very desirable inside and out.

Yes, some say, women are women, some say that other cultures have good women, some say there is no difference.

However, where all of you comment on the Colombian woman, you make a positive comment about the looks, attitude, Sensualness, and you say that for every man that has one of these women, they are blessed.

I never talked to argentina woman, I have talked to a woman from venezuela. Many of you have traveled all over to many places, but I have traveled all over the USA, and I am so sorry to correct some, their is a big difference, and in this thread the majority of you agree that their is a difference.

Meet American women, then Meet Colombian, their will be a noticeable difference, in looks, attitude, romance, how you are treated as a man, respect.

Who does not want money? every woman in the world wants to be cared for. Who does not want their own house, car, colthes? Every woman wants that too. Why even you men want those things, but we are not considered Goldiggers, are we?

There is a difference, and the more people comment on this thread, the more that difference is seen. If you don't believe me, go back please and read each comment, but except each as the truth, you will walk away with more comments that Colombian women are different.

Do the test please, see for yourself.

Addictive Yes ramrod, a man can get very addictive to someone like that, and I
bet she don't have to do much to finish out looking like that.

Is this your wife or girlfriend?

So delicately beautiful

southernman comments on Colombian Culture - Women

Money and Colombian Women Since money and material things are hard to obtain, Do Colombian women in general like to save money, or do they spend it as fast as they get it?
Do most men who have Colombian women, allow there women to control the money?
When I was in Colombia, I observed Colombian women being thrifty with money, take a bus than taxi, cheaper. May buy a hot dog, but not a coke, save money.
They always talk about things in relations to whether those things cost much money.
So do they save like they talk, or are they like most women in this area?
Would you trust your colombian woman with the check book, credit card,etc?

southernman comments on Viva el Sistema Postal Colombiano!

Post Office Is the Post Office the best way to send a package to Barranquilla? Is it Cheaper to send a package by way of Postal? Will they Guaranttee the shipment? I want to send some things to my Fiance, but I am not sure if she will get the things I want to send.

Any information is helpful, I will be sending my packages from Alabama.

How long does it normally take for a package to get to Colombia?

UPS is so expensive, just for a very small package.

I want to send Shampoo & Conditioner (very Good product), Candy & Gum, Earrings, things like these.

When I ship it from the post office, Do I ship to a location in barranquilla, other than my lady house, or do I ship directly to her?

Any Advice Is Appreciated, and congragulations on your items making it.

Rene thank you You are echoing my points exactly, Colombian people know adversity, tough living conditions, lack of basic material things for life.

Americans have it all, may have a hard time getting it, but it is at their disposal.

You take a good looking american woman, she will speak to you, but at the same time, everybody has an understanding that if you are not a certain type of person, keep stepping.

When I was in Colombia, Barranquilla, I talked to more womem poor, average, middle class, and yes, they are concerned about everything american women are concerned about.

However, if they never get those things, they will still be warm, beautiful, sexy, romantic, tender, care for her family, respectful. They will continue to give attention to their beauty, and YET MANY OF THEM DON'T SEE THEMSELVES AS BEAUTIFUL.

Americans family many years ago cared about each other, husbands and wives, got along, wives respected their men.

We can take some lessons from Colombian Culture, in order to solve issues, in our own american culture.

I am not trying to beat up american women, I am just amazed that with so much adversity, Colombian woman are still beautiful and not so much into looks or money, they are just interested in a healthy relationship, with someone that will work hard with them to take care of their families.

THANKS RENE

Continuation I have been to Colombia and I was very curious about Colombian women from this perspective.

Many Colombian women have never had fathers at home to train them, and for those that did have fathers, he was too busy with his other girlfriends, than being home with his wife and children.

Yet someone raised Colombian women, or their culture was instilled in them to be women that are beautiful inside and out. Take the american woman, she is beautiful, has money, cars, homes, great job, everything. However many of these women are alone, why? because they choose to be? NO, because their attitude is one of disrespect, not all american women.

The Colombian culture has these women looking beautiful, being sensual, sexy. loving, tender, passionate, and they will take care of their man day or night.

American women say, I can't do all of that, because I don't have time, I am tired, etc.

A third world country, where work is hard to come by, money is hard to come by, no car, in fact some ride a motor bike to get around, no private room at home, must share a bedroom with many other family members, not to mention NOT being excepted by her country, and by men. they have no material value to themselves, all they have to offer is themselves.

They stand out over american women. For every one american women you show me that is like a colombian woman, I will show you hundreds or maybe even thousands of Colombian women, who are waiting for a GOOD man.

This site? Get ready because Colombian woman are coming to america, they are going to get the man, because they have all that they need to do this, themselves. Their culture has taught them that sensual, sexy, tender, respectful, loyal, will get them all they need. American women are learning that as long as they continue to act as they do, they will continue to be alone.

Some on this site have colombian women, and you say, we heard enough of this thread, but did you hear or read enough when you were looking at these women?

Culture is who we are, and Colombian Culture speaks volumes about the Colombian woman.

Anerican Culture is who we are, and many many men are choosing to enjoy colombian culture and it's women, don't hate, congragulate.
