italian

Being of an Italian descent. If you are born in Italy, then you are Italian. Lots of non-italians when describing their definitions say 'We Italians', mean while they live in America. You are NOT Italian if you live in America, you can have Italian ancestry, but you're still more American than Italian. Some of the definitions of this word are pretty bad and very stereotypical. No, Italy is not the most kick-ass country in the world with the most kick-ass people. Not all Italian girls and guys are 'hot' and not all Italians are olive skinned and dark haired. Many Italians appear to be attractive because of the way they dress (most Europeans care about the way they look than we do in North America). Italians are just as pure-white-Caucasian as any American(s) (who is/are white) is. I was born in Italy and moved to Canada and still travel back every year. Whenever I go, I think of all of the crazy stuff people say about Italians. Yes, they can be confusing and hard to understand at times, I've read many books on them and have also experienced them... but not all Italians are who you think they are. Basically, you cannot talk about Italy/Italians without KNOWING (as in going there, and SEEING everything, how they act and react to things) Italy and Italians.
