Italians are stereotypically viewed as being a hot-blooded, intense Mediterranean people with a close-knit family structure and a passion for food and wine. Many Italians are, in fact, disturbingly handsome and even if you manage to find one who isn't, he will compensate for it with his charm, sensitivity, romantic nature, and good taste in fashion. Family and financial security are the highest valued attributes of Italians; these men love strong family ties and they honor all family obligations. Italian men are known for their love of their mothers, so, while an average modern Westerner sometimes hardly even talks to his family, it can be sweet and touching to see someone so devoted to his mother. These men are romantic, extremely expressive when it comes to emotions, and you should be prepared for a lot of touching and kissing!
