The 11 Differences Between Dating a European Man vs an American Man.

First of all "New York Men", especially NYC "men" aren't indicative of "American Men". Much too metrosexual. Get out of the city, and you will meet "MEN".

That's why we come here? lol.
It’s true country men are men. And they don’t have a lot of options. When I go up north Michigan in the country I see good looking guys with big ugly women. Girls if you go to the country you will have so many suitors you won’t know what to do with them.

It’s not like in Mayberry where the only single guys were Andy Barney and goober.

Never thought of it like that. lol.

The question is do you want to live in the city or do they want to live in the country? No sense in meeting a real man in the country if you don’t want to live there.

I think the difference might have to do more with European women, rather than American males.

European women are sluttier than American women. So naturally European males being in Europe have more to chose from. Whereas American males only have a few to choose from. ;)
Oh come on you know American women are sluttier. No virgins at 18. Giving bjs at 15. Get real.

But I will agree with this. It is the woman’s fault. Guys do whatever works with women. If it didn’t work on women guys wouldn’t do it.

Need an example? It’s black womens fault black men wear their pants low and their underwear sticking out. If that shit didn’t work with the ladies they’d pull their pants up immediately

Speaking as someone who has actually spent quite a bit of time overseas, I can tell you that in general, women in European countries are a bit more conservative when it comes to dating than American women.

The only exception that I found to that rule was when running around Palma Mallorca and Ibiza during the summer. When European women are on holiday in the Med, the tourist areas where they are at is a pretty decent pick up environment.

As far as black men wearing their pants low with their underwear sticking out? It's not something that black women encouraged. It's something that came from the prison system. Wearing your pants down below your ass was a way to show gang affiliation.

I never thought that the cultural background of a dating prospect would make much of a difference when it came to relationships. However, since living in New York, I’ve had the opportunity to meet many different people from various backgrounds and it’s become clear that there are definite cultural norms specific to European men versus American men (especially New Yorkers). I’m not to judge that one is better than the other, and mind you, my observations are based on my own experiences as well as a group of women I’ve interviewed in the last two years. The below is a list of some of the themes and commonalities observed. Now, when I discuss the differences between European and American, I’m referring to a mindset.

You can very well be born in America but have a more “European” mindset and vice versa.

Aw. Feel vulnerable? Got at?

Do not judge American men by New Yorkers. They....are an entirely different breed.

Secondly, there are some profoundly stupid American men on this forum who bear no resemblance to the fine men I know in real life. Granted we all let it "hang out" a little online sure. But still. Please also do not judge American men by the stupidity often witnessed here.

Americans are open and friendly. Community spirited; will rally round in an emergency, always ready to help. They are also more readable, visually articulate.

Whereas the square jawed robot Germans. You'd never know if they lusted after you, or not.

You've never been in an Italian town, middle of summer, hanging out around the town square, have you? Every evening, just before sunset, people start coming out and gathering at all the little cafes surrounding the square. Not only are there adults getting together, but there are also kids and families that show up there to meet and hang out. Very strong sense of community around those places.

I remember hitting on these flirty Greek girls and they all said I was too forward. The confidence you have to show here hitting on women doesn’t work there. They want to know you want to get to know them. It has to be about romance and a connection.

In America the girls too ready to have sex either right away or after the second or third date. Guys who aren’t serious know after s couple dates they’re getting laid her in America. Even if you aren’t the one.

Yes I have. Many times.

The place to hang out is the Canary Isles.

No. But if you are curious, I'm a grandma in the rubber room, post your own pictures. In front of Starbucks.
 
On a superficial and a commercial level.

Not on underlying layers.
The superficial and commercial level is what's incorrectly referred to as American culture by foreigners.

At home, most American families are FROM other parts of the world. Our food, not our fast food our home food, is from all over the world. Our traditions are from all over the world. Our values are from all over the world.

Our pop culture is copy catted....all over the world.

I would say after a couple of generations most American families become more American and less whatever culture they came from. Especially in generations past, and depending on where they're from. I grew up expressly American. On one side English heritage; the other side German, but this mattered not a whit. Just a pure American upbringing. We have a culture and make no mistake about that.

What's wrong with being American? Who would want to be European?

They still haven't recovered from the 30 Years' War.

Absolutely nothing from my POV. We gave the world Rock N Roll, movies, blue jeans...I mean so many things.

Indeed. Evidenced by last week in the Irish Pub. Crowded out by mostly Germans, all of us singing along to Tom Petty, (a cover Croation guitarist)

In English!! They knew all the words.

Maybe music is the great unifier.

Actually, music IS a great unifier. I remember one time on my last ship, we pulled into Augusta Bay Sicily, and the first night out, I got to talking to the owner of a cafe, because I wanted to know how he made his almond granite (it was wonderfully delicious). Well, we kept talking, and he asked if I was with the US Navy ship that had just pulled in. I told him yes, and he then asked if we had anyone onboard who played music like a DJ. I told him that there was one guy onboard who had his own setup and records. He then asked if I could bring him by so he could ask if he would be interested in spinning records in his bar next door. Well, I got my friend, he talked to the owner of the bar and cafe, and the next thing you know, he was set up in the bar, and we had the whole ship there dancing and having fun.

Well, seems that there are lots of young people in Augusta Bay who like American music, and when they heard the music, they came into the bar and stayed. The guy had such a packed place that evening, he asked us to play records for the rest of the time we were in port.

Yes, music is a great unifier.

You know, when I was in Norfolk, I met a girl and asked her out. At the start of the first date, she told me I wasn't going to get laid until after the third date.

Well................I don't like being given rules, as I prefer to have things happen organically and develop on their own, doesn't matter if it takes 3 dates or 20. I want to get to know the person before jumping in the sack.

Well, after the 3rd date, she looked at my all coy and stuff as I walked her to the door. I kissed her on the cheek, asked if she would like to go out again. She said yes, so we made a time for the next date, and I walked away.

Dated her for a grand total of 7 dates, and each time I kissed her on the cheek, told her I had a nice time, and left without so much as even thinking about trying to have sex with her. At the end of the 7th date, she asked why I hadn't tried to make a move on her, and I told her that because of what she had told me on the first date, I had decided to not to make passes at her because I didn't like being told that I had to meet a specific quota of dates to get laid.
 
Our President spray tans and colors his hair. We have a whole subset of Americans, mostly from East coast big cities, that would consider this normal behavior. It's pretty frowned upon, conversely, by the men who are a bit more brute, and less posh.

Two different cultural norms there, in terms of personal up-keep, same Country.

Ease up. Most people in "East coast big cities" don't do this, including me. The folks in the "heartland" seems to have fallen in love with the spray tan and the hair color.
IMHO there is no American man, neither there is a European man.
Same for women. No stereo type fits really.
I'm pretty sure there are women which are not just grave digging like a friend of mine classify women.

But we are straying. I find European men much more attractive, intelligent, prepared, mannerly, civilized, sexy, etc.

Oh I don't know. There's nothing like those Canadian lumberjacks.

Hmm. Never considered them. I must take a look!

I was a virgin at 18. My daughter is a virgin and she's older than that, and no she isn't snowballing me, I would know. And she is a beautiful girl who cuts down cads the likes of which we see here from a mile away. She's had customer service jobs, you see, so she's had a lot of practice. I adore my girl. :5_1_12024:
My two sister in laws were virgins before marriage. That’s a lost art.
Just what is the deal with virginity, anyway? It is evident from the fact that men don't practice it that it doesn't have anything to do with morality. So what's the deal?
