Argentina girls. Residents of Argentina about Russia and Russians (10 photos)

Argentines who are going to come to Russia for the World Cup were given an educational booklet about Russia with the section "What to do to have a chance with a Russian girl." They advise, for example, to talk about your country, not to brag and not to ask stupid questions about sex.

On May 15, the Argentine Football Federation held a lecture about Russia for players, coaches, journalists, officials and other fans. The participants listened to a lecture by Professor Eduardo Pennisi about the Russian language and culture, and also received booklets "Language and Culture of Russia", which contained, among other things, tips on seducing Russian girls. After some time, the booklets were taken away and returned without scandalous pages, but journalist Nacho Catullo published their photos on Twitter.

The association said the manual was written by "someone who has lived in Russia for many years and has nothing to do with the football association." Later it turned out that the section about girls was copied from a private blog about Russia, where they later explained that they did not want to offend or humiliate anyone. The compiler of the pamphlet, Pennisi, stated that the Argentine Football Association endorsed it. Now the organization is looking for someone who allowed the chapter to be included in the manual or “sabotaged” it at the printing stage.

How to be successful with Russian girls, according to AFA

1. Russian girls, like any other girls, pay special attention to those men who bathe, smell good and are well dressed. The first impression is very important for them, watch your appearance.

2. Russian girls don't like being treated just like an object [for sex]. Many men just want to put them to bed because Russian women are beautiful. They may not mind, but they also want to feel important and unique. Treat the woman in front of you with respect, respect her views and desires. Follow your principles and values, do not ask stupid questions about sex. For Russians, sex is something very private and not discussed publicly (you may not believe me, but I know men who do).

3. Russian girls hate boring men. If you have no topics to talk about and you just think about what to say next, then you will lose interest. Remember that you are a foreigner and you can talk about your country, how you live, or what interests you. Remember that it is very important to engage her in conversation. Try to be honest.

4. Don't dwell on the negative. Women avoid people who focus on the negative - in work, relationships and in life.

5. Don't ask standard questions, be original. They usually want to know more about you, so tell them something. Remember that many of them do not know anything about your country, so you have an advantage over the Russians: you are something new to them. Let her feel it.

6. Russian women love enterprising men. If you are not confident in yourself, then you need to practice more in communicating with women.

7. Russian women usually do not like it if only you speak during a conversation. This is a common problem among men who are too selfish or too nervous when talking to a beautiful girl. In both cases, you need to change your approach, and the nervous guys need to relax, it's just a girl, nothing more.

8. Don't try to impress too much. Perhaps you will talk about being rich, about the fact that you all know that you are perfect, and others are poor fools. In the end, the girl will figure you out if she has common sense. Be natural and talk about who you really are, talk cheerfully about your failures and your strengths.

9. Usually Russian girls pay attention to important things, but there are those who care only about money. Don't worry, there are many beautiful women in Russia, not all of them will suit you. Be selective.

The best comments on the list of tips.

"Women in Argentina" is one of the most popular queries people come to my blog for.

By popular demand, I am publishing a text about beauty in Argentina, which I wrote for Cosmo Beauty magazine.

I publish my text (without editorial and proofreading).

Argentina: elusive beauty

Elegant, slovenly, calm, hysterical, polite, absurd, friendly, closed - all and not only these characteristics apply to Argentines. Finding a common thread among women belonging to a nation that is almost 95 percent descended from immigrants from all over the world is not an easy task.

reference
Over a hundred-year period from 1850 to 1950, more than 6 million people moved to Argentina from Europe for permanent residence. The main wave of immigration to Argentina consisted of Spaniards and Italians. In addition, here you can find German, Lebanese, Jewish, Armenian, Japanese and Chinese, Russian and Ukrainian, Scandinavian blood. The listing can go on for quite some time. But the most interesting thing is that the women living in this Latin American country are great patriots of Argentina. Of course, they respect the culture and traditions of their ancestors, but regardless of their origin, they consider themselves to be Argentines, they know the history of their country well, they enjoy singing the national anthem at holidays and vehemently support local football clubs with their families and friends.

Antioxidants through a straw
It is unlikely that all women in Argentina know what antioxidants are, but the vast majority of Argentine women drink mate, a traditional drink of local Indians. Mate is a tonic tea made from the crushed leaves of the Yerba tree, which is brewed in a special vessel, most often made of gourd, and drunk through a special tube with a strainer (bombilla). Mate contains up to 1.8% caffeine, essential oil, vitamins A, B, C, citric acid and other useful substances. Drinking mate in Argentina starts at a very early age: since it is customary to share this drink, passing it around in a circle, children adopt the habit of drinking mate from their parents and then do not part with it for the rest of their lives. Mate helps someone to get ready, someone to relax, in any case, the custom of drinking healthy tea is much better than the habit of smoking or the abuse of carbonated drinks, on which many Argentineans, unfortunately, are also addicted.
Taking care of your own health and body, and diet in particular, is a controversial issue for Argentines. On the one hand, most representatives of the middle and wealthy class are happy to go to the gym, yoga, Pilates, run and ride a bike, in a word, they try their best to keep themselves in shape. On the other hand, the topic of food, its purchase, preparation and consumption is one of the most important topics for every Argentinean. In addition, it is customary to have dinner here after eight in the evening, and the main course will most likely be meat, or pasta, or pizza. For breakfast, an Argentinian will eat toast or croissants (medialunas) with coffee. At lunch, he can swallow a few pies (empanadas) with meat or chicken and wash them down with Coca-Cola. And in the evening, go back to the gym to fight those extra pounds.

Beauty from day one

Determining who sleeps in a stroller - a newborn boy or girl - is very simple: the ears of Argentine babies
in the first days of life they pierce even in the hospital. This old tradition, which came from Spain, has taken root in Argentina. Therefore, earrings are an integral part of the jewelry of most Argentine women. Girls most often grow up in large families: in Argentina, again thanks to Italian traditions, it is customary to have many children, regardless of family income. E Make-up experiments start early: local brands (Natura, Regina) have special products for teenagers. But by the end of school, young Argentine women practically stop wearing make-up during the day. It is customary to dress up here in the evening, before going out - to a disco or a bar, where they usually get acquainted with the opposite sex. By the way, about the opposite sex: despite serious religions

strict restrictions (for a long time divorce was banned in Argentina, and abortion is still banned), this country became the first on the continent where same-sex marriages can be registered, and same-sex families are allowed to adopt children. So from the school bench, Argentine children are taught that a family can consist not only of dad and mom, but also of dad and dad and mom and mom. Among the stars of show business there are more and more transvestites and transsexuals. How Argentine men feel about them is hard to say, but women are happy to discuss their bright style and unusual wardrobe.

I want to be a star!
The influence of television on the style and lifestyle of Argentine women is commented by Marcela Torres, a makeup artist and leading teacher at the Mabby Professional Makeup School: “I have to work with many women: among our clients are TV stars, models, actresses. They dictate fashion in Argentina. Then all ordinary women want a hair like Susanna (famous Argentinean actress, local prima donna), makeup like Araceli Gonzalez (actress), nose, lips, chest like Emilia Attias (singer and model) or a dress like Natalia Oreiro (soap star). opera and singer). Young people want to be like Bionce, J. Lo or Katy Perry." Indeed, Argentineans enjoy watching reality shows and series, look at photographs in magazines, and then discuss them at meetings with friends and in salons with hairdressers. And with no less pleasure copy the style they like. Marcela Torres explains this with a global trend: many women are not satisfied with their own appearance and want to be like the stars who most often, not sparing themselves, improve their bodies and faces with the help of plastic surgery. Plastic surgeons in Argentina note that the age of their patients has drastically decreased in recent years. Parents bring 15-16-year-old girls to consultations in order to give them plastic surgery, most often for breast augmentation. According to studies, out of 300,000 operations that were performed in Argentinean clinics in 2010, 60,000 corrected breast imperfections. It is widely known that the President of the country, Cristina Fernandez Kirchner, uses the services of plastic surgeons.

Everything in the model

The first book - an album with professional photographs - many Argentinean girls receive as a gift to celebrate their fifteenth birthday. Then these photos are scattered on social networks ... Fate still smiles at someone, and the girl is invited to a modeling agency. Along with the wedding, the celebration of the fifteenth anniversary in Argentina occupies an important place in the lives of girls. They prepare for it ahead of time: parents rent a restaurant or salon for numerous guests, hire a catering service, order a cake, buy or sew a festive dress to order from a designer, hire a make-up artist and hairdresser for the birthday girl. In the photo studio, the girls change five or six outfits, experiment with make-up and hairstyles. In Argentine makeup schools, there is a separate topic "Quince" (fifteen), a monthly magazine of the same name is published.

Life without a bidet is not life!

You will hardly see young well-groomed Argentine women: they start taking care of their skin and hair here already after thirty years. Until this age, Argentine women do not think about skin care products, they go to the salon only to cut the ends of long hair, they do manicures on their own (most often they just paint their nails somehow). There is only one procedure that Argentine women - young and not very young - will never refuse. Depilation of legs, arms, armpits and bikini areas is a mandatory monthly ritual, without which life will seem inferior to an Argentine woman. Also, Argentine women will never understand how you can live without a bidet. Even in a small bathroom in the smallest apartment, you will find a bidet. The unshaven armpits of European women and the "unfinished" bathrooms in most countries of the world are a constant cause for ridicule in Argentina. In turn, the girls from Europe are perplexed why “shi lacquer” has only recently appeared in Argentina or why it is so difficult to find a good nail extension master in Buenos Aires. New technologies are coming to Argentina late. Salon owners are in no hurry to pamper their customers with new products, because the main procedures will always remain the usual cut manicure and pedicure (in a rare salon you will find a machine for mechanical nail treatment), haircut-coloring-styling. Recently, a new service has appeared in all salons: a keratin hair mask. The spas offer a standard set of facial and body treatments: cleaning (manual and abrasive), masks, massages, lymphatic drainage and electrodes. Interestingly, with a large number of immigrants from Asia (mostly from China), it is difficult to find a massage parlor in Argentina that offers Thai or any other Asian type of massage. But almost all massage therapists know the Reiki technique, and often finish the main procedure with a 15-minute session.

Your manners
Foreigners find Argentinians attractive but tasteless. The reason for this bad taste is difficult to understand: in the era of globalization, you can follow any trend, regardless of the geographical location of the country. But Argentine women, as if by agreement, all follow the same fashion. For example, short haircuts are not worn here. Salon stylists with sparkling eyes will start experimenting with short hair, and most often this will lead to disastrous results. Why? They just don't know how to work with short hair. Argentine women believe that long hair is sexy and feminine, and men support them in this. If dyeing the ends of the hair in a light color has come into fashion, everyone will go with such a hairstyle - without exception, because it is so fashionable. Platform or leopard print shoes are in fashion - it will be difficult to find another model either in a nearby or in any other store, because all fashion designers also adhere to the same trend. And Argentinians don't complain, because they're used to it and don't demand variety. But for foreigners, especially Europeans or Americans, it is very difficult to put up with the lack of a large assortment. The limited choice is also explained by the latest trends in the Argentine economy: in early 2012, the government passed a law restricting the import of most goods into the country. Many foreign brands had to close their business in Argentina, leaving Argentine women at the disposal of local designers. Of the major foreign brands, only those who can manufacture their goods in Argentina or in nearby countries that are part of a common customs zone remain. Among them are the well-known Zara, as well as Levis, Lacoste, Max Mara, Rip Curle, Timberland, sports Adidas, Nike, Puma ... and, perhaps, all. But the Argentinians don't seem to be very upset. They buy clothes from local designers, read Argentinean magazines, and don't look "outward" much. And those who do not have enough foreign goods and, most importantly, can afford them, arrange shopping during trips to Europe or the USA.

Inaccessible sexuality
Argentinians buy simple clothes: jeans, leggings, T-shirts and blouses, flip flops and ballet flats. In normal times, Argentine girls look more than natural and simple - without embellishment. Perhaps that is why many foreigners consider Argentine women beautiful and sexy. Their finest hour comes on Friday evening or on weekends, when they are going to a disco with their girlfriends. Then all means are used: high-heeled shoes, black eyeliner and bright lipstick (most often cosmetics from L’Oreal, Maybelline or Mac are used), rich jewelry and short skirts. One by one, no one goes out into the world: the beauties gather at one of their friends' houses at 11 o'clock in the evening and only by 2-3 in the night they get to the club. Young people are waiting for them there: they always have the whole arsenal of compliments and smuts at the ready, which they do not hesitate to share with girls. And what is most interesting: the beautiful Argentine, who has been preparing for more than one hour to collect all the admiring glances on the dance floor, is not so easy to win! From school, Argentineans are accustomed to the fact that the boys talk a lot, and do not fall for beautiful words and empty promises. Therefore, to create a serious relationship with an Argentinean girl, local young people have to put in a lot of effort: drink more than one liter of coffee on dates and watch dozens of movies in the cinema.

Slipping elegance

Without a doubt, Argentine aged women can be called true beauties. It is women over fifty that can be found in beauty salons, which in Argentina can be found several in every quarter. Accustomed to taking care of themselves in their youth, elderly Argentine women do not leave this habit almost until their death. Often in salons in the capital of Argentina, Buenos Aires, you can see a senior at the age of 80-90 years old, who hardly move alone, see poorly and often do not hear at all, but every week they come to a master they have known for more than a dozen years to discuss breaking news, wash and style your hair and paint your nails. These women are elegantly dressed in neat, high-quality clothes and shoes, they can be accompanied by a small dog, which in winter will be put on an equally elegant cape, the handbag will be matched to match the shoes, the eyes are lined with a dark pencil and the lips are tinted with bright lipstick. The habit of being beautiful and well-groomed has been preserved by these venerable women from the time when the city lived a completely different, measured, rich life: when dresses for fashionistas were made to order according to European patterns, when tango was danced in all dance salons, and it was possible to walk around the city without fear of being robbed. These ladies look great at any time of the day. Their style and ability to keep themselves can be envied. But, unfortunately, the culture of refined noble beauty in Argentina is gradually disappearing. Time dictates its own rules, and measured elegance is replaced by casual style, which modern Argentine women give their preference to.

Argentina, along with neighboring Uruguay, is one of the whitest (in racial terms) countries in Latin America. The number of descendants of Europeans in the country is, according to various sources, from 83 to 97 percent. At the same time, despite the fact that Argentina was a Spanish colony in the past, the formation of the Argentine nation was more influenced not by the Spaniards, but by the Italians, who began to massively move to Argentina at the end of the 19th century, and now 55% of the population of Argentina are of Italian origin. (among them are such world-famous people as the current Pope Francis or football player Lionel Messi).

In addition to Italians and Spaniards, there are many descendants of the French (17%) and Germans (8%) in the country.

Indigenous Indian peoples (Araucans, etc.) number no more than 600 thousand people (1.5%), but genetic studies show that 18% of modern Argentines have Indian ancestors. Argentina ranks third in South and fourth in Latin America in terms of population (40 million people).

About Russia and Russians, and now you are waiting for the opinions of the inhabitants of Argentina about us and about our country.

At school, they didn’t tell us anything about Russia, but I saw a map and I know that this is a huge country with a cold climate. There also seems to be problems with democracy. (Abril, 13 years old, schoolgirl, Aedo).

One of my friends had a Russian girlfriend. She talked a lot about Russia. That life there is much more difficult, so people mature faster than in Argentina. (Adriana, 48, psychoeducator, Buenos Aires).

I see a huge area covered with snow and ice. Educated and respected people with a sense of humor that is very different from the Argentinean. It would be interesting to hear how death metal sounds in Russian. (Alejandro, 29, musician, Buenos Aires).

I read Russian fairy tales to my children. There is a collection called Masha's Pies. They are delighted with stories about bears, because they are not found in Argentina. (Andrea, 42, Spanish teacher, Buenos Aires)

It must be cold, dark and snowy there. Climate influences the mood of people. They cannot be as open and friendly as in Argentina. I probably wouldn't be able to live there. (Christina, 55, secretary, Buenos Aires).

The country has experienced so many wars in the 20th century that people's minds must be sufficiently militarized. Therefore, I was very surprised when my friends told me that the Argentine series "Wild Angel" was shown in Russia and that it had become very popular there. (Liliana, 60, psychoeducator, Buenos Aires).

I have been to Russia many times. I like to see how fast big cities like Moscow are changing. As for the Russians, they are almost always fast paced and often don't look friendly. But if you have already been invited to their house, the Russians will treat you and smile from the bottom of their hearts. (Martin, 39, entrepreneur, Buenos Aires).

Russia is a giant with great political weight in the world. Russians are a people with a warm heart in a cold country. These are people with a high level of culture who like to demonstrate their patriotism. Russians have suffered a lot in their history. (Omar, 60, amateur actor, Aedo).

Russia seems to me a very cinematic country. I love watching YouTube videos made in Russia. Wide streets, strange Soviet architecture, marble metro. Everything is like from another planet. And the people - judging by the Russians I know? It's a very traditional society. (Franco, 29, director, Buenos Aires).

Russia has always seemed to me a very interesting country due to its culture. The Sacrifice by Andrei Tarkovsky is one of the best films I have ever seen in my life. (Elias, 28, photographer, Cordoba)
all.

The Football Association of Argentina before the World Cup, which will be held in Russia, handed out brochures to journalists and athletes with tips on how to please Russian girls. This led to a scandal, and the advice from the pamphlet was hastily removed. But photos of instructions remained on social networks. Many points from it can hardly be called irrelevant.

The Argentine Football Association (AFA) handed out brochures to journalists and athletes on how to behave in Russia during a Russian language course. This became part of the preparation for the trip to the World Championship, which will be held in Russia in the summer of 2018. In the brochure, among other tips, there was a section with recommendations: how to please Russian girls. The photograph of the brochure was posted on Twitter by the Argentine journalist Nacho Catullo.

As the BBC clarifies, the memo was released just a month after the largest march in Latin America against sexism and violence against women was held in Buenos Aires. What was it that was published? There were eight points on the torn pages, dealing with ethics, courtesy, cleanliness, and finances.

Argentine recommendations are given in one of the blogs on Sports.ru. They were titled: "What to do to have a chance with a Russian girl." Let's start with the basics:

Russian girls, like any other girls, pay special attention to those men who bathe, smell good and are well dressed. The first impression is very important for them, watch your appearance.

Russian girls don't like being treated just as an object [for sex]. Many men just want to put them to bed because Russian women are beautiful. They may not mind, but they also want to feel important and unique. Treat the woman in front of you with respect for her views and desires. Follow your principles and values, do not ask stupid questions about sex. For Russians, sex is a very personal thing that is not discussed publicly (you may not believe me, but I know men who do this).

The third paragraph says that Russian girls don't like mean people.

Don't dwell on the negative. Women avoid people who focus on the negative - in work, relationships and life.

And also banal men.

Don't ask standard questions, be original. They usually want to know more about you, so tell them something. Remember that many of them do not know anything about your country, so you have an advantage over the Russians: you are something new to them. Let her feel it.

The brochure also says that Russian girls like confident men, but they don't like egoists and when a man talks only about himself during a conversation. At the same time, according to the author of the brochure, you should not try to advertise yourself too much.

Don't try to impress too much. Perhaps you will talk about being rich, about the fact that you know everything, that you are perfect, and others are poor fools. In the end, the girl will figure you out if she has common sense. Be natural and talk about who you really are, talk cheerfully about your failures and your strengths.

The last paragraph deals with the delicate issue of money.

Usually Russian girls pay attention to important things, but there are those who care only about money. Don't worry, there are many beautiful women in Russia, not all of them will suit you. Be selective.

In the comments to the brochure, they noted that these tips can be applied to girls from any country, other readers themselves decided to take the advice into service. Although some of the training of Argentines to pickup in Russian was not pleased.

- Did you have to bathe? Well, everything. Now trample!
— The usual tips for getting girls in any part of the world to like you. Or is it only Russian girls who like men who bathe and are not boring?
- First at the championship ****** our team, then our women. Is this championship really a holiday for the Russians? Expand

Later it turned out that the AFA did not come up with the recommendations. The compilers of the brochure simply copied them from a Mexican blog dedicated to the culture of the post-Soviet space. The text was published there in 2015. The Argentine Football Association
