TIP: This website has many women from Argentina looking for wealthy men to date.

Gorgeous looking

Women in Argentina have their ethnic heritage to thank for their lovely looks. The dark beauty of these women owes something to their Spanish blood but their confidence is all their own. Women here have gorgeous skin which is well complemented by dark hair and dark flashing eyes. No wonder then so many women from this country are regulars in the final rounds of international beauty pageants. What’s more women here know how to take care of themselves and are quite conscious of contemporary fashion trends and styles.

On the road to empowerment

At the same time though, don’t make the mistake of thinking that their looks are all that Argentinian women have to be proud of. As compared to other Latin American countries, women here have achieved relatively high levels of equality. In fact according to in the Global Gender Gap Report prepared by the World Economic Forum in 2009, Argentine women ranked 24th among 134 countries studied in terms of their access to resources and opportunities relative to men. Women in Argentina not only have comparable levels of education but actually enjoy a higher degree of school enrollment as regards to their male counterparts. The fact that Argentinian women are well onto the path of empowerment is best exemplified by the current president of the nation, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner who was elected in 2007; the runner-up to the powerful appointment was also a woman, Elisa Carrió. Even though Argentinian women still have a long way to go in universal economic empowerment and they continue to deal with issues like domestic violence and inequal pay, yet they are far better off than women in many South American countries.

Love music and dancing

In Argentina, if you are trying to get women to notice you, one of the best things you can do is take her out dancing. This country is after all the birthplace of the tango, the musical form that not only offers a spectacular dance but also attracts with its unique rhythm and lyrics. At the same time, see if your date would like to go somewhere where ‘rock nationale’ or a popular variety of Argentinian rock is playing. Indeed you never know she may even be into European classical music since Argentinian high culture continues to maintain close association to its European roots. In recent years Argentinian folk music has gained in popularity and your girlfriend may be an avid fan of the older Nueva Cancion or León Gieco's folk-rock which has been famous for bridging the gap between Argentine folklore and Argentine rock.

Play hard to get

One of the things that many foreign men notice about an woman is that she often plays hard to get. Upon meeting you for the first time, she may quickly get friendly with you, but may take forever to move to the next level, if you are planning to get close to her.  So you might as well be prepared for the head turn when you go in for the kiss since almost every girl does it here. Something that could be enough to traumatize a guy in the US, is quite alright here. You need to remember that it is a cultural thing and isn’t half as bad because your date is likely to stick around after your initial attempt. However the kiss here is a big deal here and once you have managed to do it right, you are likely to find a change in your date.  She will probably become more affectionate and warm. In fact the amount of affection an Argentine girl gives you after the kiss is similar to what an American girl would give you on the second or third date.

Close to their families

The family has a significant presence in Argentinian society. It not only looms large in the personal lives of individual members but also influences to a great extent his/her chances of succeeding in professional or business areas. Indeed in Argentina it is quite acceptable for people to seek favors from immediate and extended family members in order to further commercial and personal prospects. It is tacitly agreed that the individual will reciprocate when he/she is called upon to return the favour. Thus you may find your Argentinian girlfriend quite close to her family and maybe under their influence as far as personal relationships are concerned. Upon being invited to her house for dinner or a Sunday lunch, you will probably find her in the thick of family relations and a multitude of uncles, brothers and male cousins hovering protectively around her. In Argentinian families the elders have the most authority and the oldest male is usually the head of the house. Thus it is important for you to win over her family if you are interested in a long term relationship with your Argentinian girlfriend. At the same time, this deep bonding with the family has its own advantages. If you are planning to settle down or run a business in Argentina, knowing a local well-regarded family will immediately place a network of contacts at your disposal. At the same time you and your partner will also be able to depend on a close-knit family network for emotional and physical support should you need so.
