Still aren't following me on Twitter? What are you waiting for?
Colombian women are a strange, strange animal. I’ve been here for 2 months now, and I’m still discovering new things about the women. They’re freaking crazy / beautiful and I love it.

Let’s break down what makes a woman, a Colombian woman.
What Is Beautiful Is Beautiful (Que es bonita es bonita)
They have a saying in Medellin, “Que es bonita es bonita.” It pretty much sums up the people here. I lived in Los Angeles for 3 years, but I’ve seen more beautiful women here in 2 months. Seriously.
The only problem is, when you’re gorgeous you know it. So, they’re also very vein. I have a mirror in the living room of my apartment. Whenever there are women in the apartment, they literally stare at themselves in the mirror. One night we had a little dance party, and they were fighting over who could watch themselves dance in the mirror.
The bodies (hay dios)
Ok, what takes the women here from average to gorgeous is their bodies. They all have the perfect shape. Slim, with wide baby-making hips. And, to top it off they move their bodies like you wouldn’t believe. It’s an extremely musical culture so they’re always dancing. Hay Dios!
Berry, Berry Nice
The hotter the woman, the more bitchy, right? Wrong. The women are extremely approachable and easy to talk to. Their ”nice-ness’ has actually been a problem because I’m a sarcastic bastard. You can hurt their feelings pretty easily, especially if your Spanish sucks and the joke doesn’t translate that well.
Derek’s Theory: It’s difficult to be bitchy when you know there are a crap-ton of hotter girls out there. Hot girls in the states can have attitude because they’re comparatively better looking. That’s the not the case here. Everyone is at least partially good looking. The average women here are 8’s in the states.
Promiscuous but Not
Here’s the tricky part and what makes Colombian women so difficult to figure out. Colombians are very promiscuous but not all. Keep reading…
It is not uncommon for a man to have 3-4 girlfriends in Colombia. I’ve been asked several times how many other girlfriends I have. It’s not a big deal to be a player. And, it works the same way for the women.
I’ve literally gotten phone numbers of girls with their boyfriend standing right there. And, there’s absolutely no jealousy what-so-ever.
BUT, at the same time, it’s every woman’s dream here to get married and have children. Something like 98% of the country is Catholic.
In a nutshell - they don’t really want you to be with other women, but if you are, it’s not a big deal.
The bottom line for guys: if she has a boyfriend, don’t worry about it, stay the course. However, don’t expect a ton of one night stands. You’re going to need to put in your time before the big pay-off.
Disclaimer: It doesn’t hurt that I’m an American. According to a lot of women here, big white guys (BTW I’m huge in Medellin) are exotic. Can you believe that? When’s the last time someone told an American he was exotic?
Wow Der I Loved Reading How Your Girls…

This post is so basic but you brought the facts. Thanks alot..now I want to go back
Hello I am a Colombian woman and I can honestly say that is not all true.I guess maybe “women” are more open minded in my country but, the saying of having 1-4 girlfriends and boyfriends is NOT a fact.(if they do the women don’t know about it) and lets not forget that our male companions are not always our boyfriends could be cousins,guys that have been knowing the family since a young age, or simply friends.Colombian women are not easy and you may ask my AMERICAN husband about that! We have been told we are exotic and beautiful inside and out and once we find a partner you best believe is for a lifetime ride !
