Impressions on the Porteños

As my knowledge of Argentinean is getting more and more precise I decided to talk a bit about them in this article.
What can I say about the Porteños & BA: what do I like and what do I dislike.
In general the Porteños are very nice, attentive and friendly people. They dress the European way with additional details. For instance, men like to clip their mobiles and keys on their belts. Unlike in many other countries, it is usual to see a man with long hair here.
The women know how to dress in a very sexy way, but according to me lack most of the time of elegance. They love to go to the hair removal centres.
The guys have the reputation to be very direct when approaching girls, and usually finish the discussion by insulting her if she refused the offer. The girls are said to be “hystericas”, in other words you think that everything is going well but when you are about to give her a kiss, she lives wishing you a pleasant night (I had the opportunity to experience it).

The inhabitants of BA are very paranoid: they always lock their front doors. Therefore, when you have a friend coming to your flat you have to go down to open him and accompany him when he lives. Sometimes it is a real pain in the neck, especially when you invited 10 friends for dinner.
They drive in a very silly way. Never stop at red traffic light during the night, never respect the speed limit, don't turn on their lights at night …
They enjoy drinking “mate” (kind of tea, made out “yerba”), drunken very hot in a “guampa” (recipient) with a “bombilla” (straw). The typical bistro in BA is called a “parilla” (big barbecue) where are cooked all kinds of meet: a paradise for meat lovers. I promise to invite those, who come to visit me to one of them called Peña.
