Hi all!
I made this question because , as a latin woman from South America myself, I realized that there are many stereotypes related to women from this part of the world and about the countries for example, most people think that the countries of South America are ALL THE SAME , the same culture when we are SO DIFFERENT! and many think that everything here is : poverty , easy pretty women , parties, carnivals , beaches , sun and happiness...please, tell me your honest opinions...do you really think so about south american women and countries?
Greetings!
Zaryna.

I would answer to you, but I�m South American too, so, my opinion doesn�t count. But I agree with you.

[Traviezalizeth]

im from South American too so guess my opinion doesn't count either.
Anyway, i heard the same. We are thought as poor. And maybe that's true...but we are also happy peolple and we always have a smile upon our faces.

i have never been to south america, but i have not heard of any stereotypes that the women are easy. i have heard that the people are friendly and smiling, and generally happier than their north american counterpoints.

sounds like a nice place to me!

One South African woman had once told me that there is no safety in her country, but personally, I don't know much about it.

What's easy woman?Woman who's easily hooked up with?

[stellara]

yeah, more or less.
in my opinion a woman is called easy when she often meets (different) men but doesn't really mean it.

greets
