In Poland we think that Italian men are handsome, but they love their mothers too much and they stay with them too long :D I've never heard stereotypes about Italian women :/

And in general about Italians:

Pasta, pizza, mafia, pasta, pasta, curly hair and pasta! :D We often call you 'makaroniarze'(people who are obsessed with pasta), which comes from 'makaron'-pasta :P

They love food and women equally..

I'm spanish and i think that they are... our brothers ;)

People with a sense of fashion.They are very smiling and friendly.Italians use lots of gestures when they are talking.

When I think of Italians, I think of these guys and this sound!...
