Your resident American expat here in Italy. I lived in Rome for two years. The guy sounds authentically Italian speaking English. I found it interesting that Charlie so easily guessed Rome, as if he were a plant in the audience. It is the capital, so it's not much of a reach. But it just reminded me of fake psychic who plants people in the audience to ask questions but slips up revealing they know everything already.

Anyway. The Italian population is dying. Not enough young people are having babies. I know about five 30 something couples all in committed relationships for years, even have bought homes together, but not a single kid between them. If Meloni was obsessed with Italy for Italians, they should be creating more reasons for young Italians to stay and not go abroad looking for work. Having a kid shouldn't be so expensive and young people should have more opportunities.

Italy doesn't hate gay people. They don't care what you are as long as you get married and have kids - pretty much. There are so many men comfortable with other men and so many men that like the attention of other men. Roman culture is in their blood, so ultimately sex between men isn't looked at as some failure in your masculinity like it is in America. I am not saying it happens all the time. But there isn't this hyper-masculinity that chokes of the humanity in men. I have zero problems being gay here, never have. And it is pretty much assumed that the church is gay. That's where gay men go, into the church. And Italians surprisingly ARE NOT churchy. Swearing allegiance to God, Jesus and religion is much more American. It's odd to them. They are probably equal parts more superstitious than religious. But I have never known a single Italian who goes to church. Not one.

I do know that if that dude witness the murder, he was shocked as hell. Scared to death. That kind of shit does not happen here. He'll have an amazing story to take back to Rome about the crazy Americans and their guns. The violence in America for a first world country is unparalleled. And people here are not numb to it like we are. It is very unsettling for them.

Huh? Those thousands of years saw incessant movement of populations from one region to another. Even once the basic modern borders were established in the early Middle Ages, wars and famines and other events pushed groups around. Within countries there were always huge divisions of language, religion, etc. This myth of "homogenous" European countries was made up in the 19th century.

And Europeans despise each other. If not for the threat of immigrant hordes, they'd be dropping bombs on each other. The present kumbaya, and moreover, the rightist calls for a "White" identity are completely anomalous and unlikely to be sustainable. Get rid of the immigrants and watch the next war start.

by Anonymousreply 45September 13, 2025 11:05 PM

Issue is Europeans don’t view each other as one because they aren’t one. Americans love umbrella terms like white to make everyone under “white” sound like one people but that’s not real. In Europe, all over there too, they view people from certain parts of Europe as very different than them.

Sure, R49, most European countries don't have the openness to immigration that America—except for our long strain of nativism and xenophobia, which currently dominates the ruling party—does. But that European attitude isn't based on actual homogeneity. Like it or not, European countries *have* always been melting pots—maybe even more so than the US, given that the differences have melted down so well that people like you don't know about them.

"The Germans"? "The Italians"? "The Spanish"? They're all mixtures coming from different directions during antiquity and the Middle Ages and even since then.

by Anonymousreply 58September 14, 2025 12:28 AM

They are definitely not R43. They are extremely homogenous. I am black and live here in Florence. I know a handful of other black Americans but they are all women. I don’t think I’ve ever come across another black American male living here. There are African immigrants. Indians, definitely Asians. Actually Cinese is the word they use for corner stores. I have to get a shirt tailored and the woman told me go to the Cinese - the tailor shop, without batting an eye. Diversity here though is pretty much someone from Naples living in Tuscany. There is no birthright citizenship in Italy. So once a foreigner, always a foreigner unless you become a citizen - which takes ten years.

Btw, Italian men can be so pretty or masculine hot. The guy in the video doesn’t come close to the level of attractive you can see on the daily. And he’s definitely “amercanized” with a built body like that. Italians, if they are muscular, have bodies so right you wonder where their guts are. They aren’t for the most part hulking and muscle bound.

And if you think that the Germans, Romans, and Celts that (with various other components) combined into English, French, and Italian really weren't all that different from each other, you should read up on what the people of the time had to say.

True. A jacked up body is actually sort of seen as gross. Italian men tend to be light above the waist but with good legs and ass. It's a soccer culture.

Oh and for the sceptic: I'm in the US now but have lived in Italy for nearly all of my adult life.

[quote]Italy doesn't hate gay people. They don't care what you are as long as you get married and have kids

True about the gay part. But in my Tuscan town I know sooo many unmarried straight men. If they're not married they're divorced. You'll also see groups of men out to dinner together. And there's no problem for two straight guys to go out to dinner together. You see it everywhere.

I lived as an out gay man in Italy and never had a problem socially or at work. People really don't care.
