They are soo suave...omg and I LOVE THE MULLETS..usually..no way but there..they can pull it off..

Jo-Anne, I'm so shocked! I think mullets are a tragedy! Actually, they are not as popular as they were last summer. I was in a club last summer with a visiting friend and we couldn't escape the mullets; it was scary. I haven't noticed as many lately...and believe me, I've been looking!

Excuse me but, what are "mullets"?

Fernando...chances are you have/had one! They are haircuts that were/are in "fashion" (I can't believe I used mullet and fashion in the same sentence). They sport short hair in the front and long hair in the back. There are several versions, some more extreme than others. I think Raul was one of the first in Spain (last year) hence sparking the trend. Here are some sites to assist you with the visual: http://www.ratemymullet.com/

Those type of men can be found in San Francisco too!

True progressiveness would a man chooses to stay at home taking care of the kids while the women goes to work. I think MM pointed out in another thread he only seen one female taxi driver in Madrid.

Pulling out chairs and going home to wash dishes? That's not being chivalrous, that's being a pu**y!

Do you even have a name for such a horrible kind of haircut???!!!

I guess I would be inmediately disinherited by my parents and repudiated by my friends if I had such a haircut!!!

Don't fool yourself hehehe, the typical spaniard is usually quite similar to an american, but with browner skin (imagine you take sunbaths for a month) and usually brown hair and eyes (though some of my friends have blue eyes and almost blond hair). Some are rude and super-machos, while others are metrosexuals...

Put a spaniard in your life!

You may find some pictures by searching for images in Google by "fotos españoles".

Ya got me MM! This is my first edit by you, I kinda had a feeling you would, wasn't sure about the word but I went for it!

hmm..finally had a chance to catch up with the posts. One of my guy friends, from Madrid, told me that there is a terrible trend going on in Spain, where the guys look awful (messy hair/apperance) and the girls look wonderful (very made up/dressy). I have to agree, and also add that I think the same trend is going on the US, although Spanish girls do get gussied up more than American girls.

I love Fernando's quote "Put a Spaniard in your life" !!!!

I have put one in my life, and he does open my doors AND does the dishes. He is also the best father to our daughter!

No offense, but living in So. Cal, i've always found foreign guys to be more courteous and respectful towards woman, and not as caught up in the Pamela Anderson android thing.

That is my experience, but I know there are many wonderful Americans (masculine)out there and on this thread.
