The craziest thing I've heard about my country is that we have polar bears and reindeer running in the streets, oh and that it's always cold here

Haha, but I read a few months ago that a high percent of Portuguese people want to be part of Spain... I don't know if that's true.
And talking about South America, a lot of people think that Spain is near Mexico. Of course we are not!

haha cool! yeah, i think that may be why we have the same creeped out feelings about middle aged white men with asian fetishes (from the fetish thread) i guess, because of the whole war and the american soldiers being with vietnamese women...like in the movie "Heaven and Earth" and also, don't westerners go to southeast asia more often than other asian areas for brothels and underrage prostitutes? it's out of control in thailand..



eeew! man, crazy ppl!

ehehe!I guess that some people say that...because your income is better...lol...but believe me that are some people here that would prefer to die than being spanish!But we keep calling each other "nuestros hermanos"...which is nice!lol
Actually there's a joke about this here...some guy says "Spain is not our friend, is our brother!Cause I can choose my friends but not my brothers!"lol
I think this is a love/hate relationship!ehehe

Yeah, more or less. We love you and we hate you. Personally, I think Portuguese people is nice. Probably, if we speak the same language we could be closer, but we don't. The reality is that, for most Spanish, Portugal is unknown; it's there, but we don't care about it.

well...most of the portuguese people thinks that french people just eat cheese (brie or something) and bechamél!
By the other hand there are a lot of people that support the idea that the french are better lovers and make love all the time!(must be from the cheese!)

we eat cheese a lot - not sure about the lover thing...

don't really fancy frenchmen as they dress like shit - they tend to wear ugly shoes + white sport socks with their suits...

and as far as making a connection between eating cheese and having lots of sex, have a try !
