Italian bisexual guy AMA

That is quite a lot haha lucky you

Giorgione or Titian ?

Hi everyone, I am an Italian boy that is going to study in the Uk next Year...ask me anything

Do you refute the idea that racism is still prominent in the gay world?

I do not know very much the gay world tbh. I do hope though that a group that faced (and still faces probably) heavy discrimination in the past fights against racism. Do you think that racism is prominent in the gay world? Could you explain a little bit more? It is interesting...

si è chiaramente un uomo di gusto e distinzione.
Trovo anche il dipinto di S. Botticelli molto intrigante.translation compliance:

Oh..."the Primavera", the epitome of beauty. Thank you very much. My body is pretty similar although I am more dark tanned. I have the same ephebic traits with dark blonde hair though

I perfectly understand what you're saying, having lived (and still living it sometimes) the same situation. Moreover, trust me being bi in a country where the Catholic Church still has a remarkable infuence in public opinion as well as in politics isn't easy at all. Peole here are changing as for mentality but there is a long way to go.

I'm out only to my five clostest friend because I knew that thay would have accepted it given that they are extraordinarily intelligent and open. For all the other people I still pretend to be straight, also because sincerely I do not feel the need to come out to everyone.

It is utterly ridicolous to tell to "pick a side" randomly; we did not choose to be bi and thus this is simply how we are. It is also completely absurd to link bisexuality to promiscuity inasmuch as no sexual orientation can be generally labelled to be "promiscuous". I will honestly "pick a side" and be faithful when I will meet the woman or the man with whom I'd like to spend my entire life. What do you think?

Don't be afraid to fully discover yourself and to appreciate all the shades of your sexuality.

What is your opinion on the rather belated arrival of Starbucks to Italy?

Sorry guys I didn't mean to make the post anonymously

It is one of those issues that you only notice if you're affected by it, so unfortunately not much is really done about it. Here are some videos to back up my points:

There is a lot of oppression against ethnic minorities, with a particular focus on blacks and asians - lots of profiles with 'no chocolates or rice'. People try to mask this racism as 'preference' but it is clearly racism when you are effectively ruling out a whole group of people

Starbucks offers a different concept of coffee compared to the one we normally have here. In Italy coffee (especially espresso but also cappuccino) is drunk rapidly standing at the bar during a quick pause. Less often we sit down to have a coffee, this happens on the contrary when we have the aperitivo.

I don't mind Starbucks honestly, it is just different. I would go there if I want to chill out, have free wi-fi and eat a cheesecake probably. The issue are the prices I think. If the maintain in Italy the prices they have abroad I am sure it will be attended only by tourists. Here coffee is very cheap despite being an high quality product.

If you were faced with the choice of your dream man or woman (whatever characteristics, within reason, you desire), which would you pick as your life-long partner?

I assure you that it is a marvellous subject and a powerful means to investigate how we evolved across the centuries ...not just a divertissement for posh girls
