I feel like a whore when men do this?

I'm in Italy and I dress very classy. I've been here less than a week and at least 5 different guys approach me, another asked for my number, and another keeps calling me Bella everytime he sees me. My mum says I should take it all as. Compliment, but I'm only 17 and isn't this too much? People stare at me everywhere I go

    Italian and Latin men are famously overtly aggressive in pursuing women and particularly young women. It is culturally infused into their "machismo" culture. Their women hav grown accustomed to their men trying their best to flatter and compliment. They like it and are often attracted to the man who can "play the violin" best among them.

    If they thought you were a whore there would be no doubt in your mind the tone had turned vulgar and ugly. Oddly enough with all this overt courting their divorce rate is among the lowest at 6% while the more subtle US culture is at 45.8%. You are far more likely to remain married as an Italian.

    Try watching a pretty young Italian girl for awhile and see how she handles herself. American women are known for being easy so that is also a factor.

    You aren't a whore. Calm down and follow your mom's advice. You don't live in Italy, or look like anyone there(at least to the locals) you are going to get hit on. Have fun, and try not to be jailbait:)

    It's probably because he's with Miley Cyrus right now. Or, you're just jealous that Selena Gomez and Miley dated him. I feel jealous too since I also have a crush on him, but he's not a you-know-what. He's really nice and he has great personality. ~ Hope that helps ~

    You are a fox. Not a quiet a **** or a hubangi. Just a fox. Nothing special.

    For real though, you are posting this in LGBT, hm?

    Somewhat arrogant to post this in the first place.

    Why are you giving yourself a title? If I were to give myself a title, it would be better than ****!
