Italian men become fathers at a later age than any other nationality, and do little or nothing to help their wives once their babies are born, statistics office Istat said on Thursday.

Italian men have their first child at an average age of 33, against less than 31 for fathers in Spain, France and Finland, Istat said.

Part of the problem was that many Italian men lived with their parents for longer than elsewhere in the world, with 40 percent of 30-34 year-old Italian males still staying at home.

When they eventually become fathers, Italian women need not expect much help around the house, Istat said, adding that Italian men’s dedication to domestic duties was “non-existent or unsatisfying.”

Istat said men who married at the age of 35 were 80 percent less likely to want a child than those who married at 25, while women were only likely not to want children if they were older than their husbands.

By contrast with the men, Italian women have their first child at an average age of 27, six months before their Finnish counterparts.

Thursday’s statistics will do little to reassure the Italian government which is worried by a demographic time bomb, with Italians rapidly aging and many couples deciding to only have one child or none at all.

Hmmmm... :rofl:

At least they have them later....

good, i don't feel so bad about not having kids now.

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to have been a teen pregnancy statistic and to just get the whole having kids part over with and folks would think that u and the kid are siblings. Happens to Alba and her dad all the time............

Italians are pretty much worthless to anyone other than the construction industry. And the Tomato industry, but yea, you said it! No wonder their kids grow up to be little oily pricks, papa levato is too busy jerking off in the wine cellar !!

Someone got butt hurt by italians. pwnt.

Yupp

Tis true. My family is hardcore italian.. My father put a roof on our heads and food in our stomachs. That was pretty much his duty. Same with his father and my mothers father.

Italians are lame. Ever see a little gino kid try so hard to be black? Its the worst kind of scene ever. Then they call te ****** a gorilla, but you look and act JUST like them, and smell worse. Maybe is papa poopatelli was around to teach his kids how to be real men (including the hairy ass women) then new gen itals would probably would be so full of shit

dont you have any PRIDE in your race? asshole... its people like you that deserve to be a fuckin wap or a fuckin dirty ******

Theres a difference between having pride in your race and being a total dipshit.

I understand that Italians were gifted their larger penis size due to the trade Ancient rome had with Egyptians.

In Ancient Italy small wee wees were more desirable than large ones.

Huh? Do the lounge a favor, buckle down and try to form a coherent sentence for once. I’m tired of filling in the gaps as you fumble and bumble your way through the English language. So a handful of Italians act like annoying tools, get over it. You don’t see anyone picking on your race making “Don’t you hate skin head, inbred assholes” threads do you?

It's a stereotype I admit... All the Donnie's and Gino's who are "italian" do give a bad rep. A steroetype is there because it's somewhat true, hence the reason it's a stereotype. However us "real" italians aren't quite like that. We actually know the language *gasp*. We actually ARE Italian (i'm first generation in this country). We've been there. Fuck I even have dual citizenship. Half these shit heads you meet are probably about 1/4 italian. Of course they do the Gotti blow back so naturally shit heads think they are Italian, because hey the Gottis are Italian. "Hey maaaaa where's my fucking hairgel!!!!!!"

dude! you got one! Congrats grand wizard heezlebean!

explain something to me beefhole... why is it that (and I speak only from those i have personally met/talked to) most Italians seem to be so damn proud of their heritage, much more so then those of any other (esp. european) descent? or are those just the 1/4 shit heads you speak of?

Well, everyone should be proud of their heritage. However, I don't think everyone should celebrate it to the point where it becomes annoying (like those we speak of). They certainly stand out with their over-gelled hair, italian flag on their V6 mustang, tank tops and gold chains. I should say though, i'm sure all those fruit cakes are Sicilian, which is not the same as Italian. ;)

Lol, no I bet most of them aren't Silcilian (at least I hope they aren't).

No, they are. They are the ones that THINK they are Italian.

i dated a girl that was 3rd gen. italian and i swear no conversation went by without some mention of the fact... come to think of it i think she did mention something about Sicilly

What do you have against sicily?

Explain why they are not "real italians" etc.....

I think Silcilians generally consider themselves Silcilian first and Italian second, but that doesn't mean they aren't Italian.

Why do all italian guys wear gold chains around their necks?




To let them know where to stop shaving.






Why are all italian guys named Tony?




Because when they borded the boat to come to america they all had To N.Y. stamped on their foreheads.




:lmfao:

I definatly didn't miss those goomba's when I left philly.
