    I don't know who I'm more frustrated with: Berlusconi for his hideous antics, his wife for not divorcing him, the Italian public for voting in an incompetent, sexist crook whose allies are neo-fascists for the THIRD time, or the European and world press for reporting on his gaffes and lechery as if they are some kind of merry jape, rather than the symptom of an utterly degraded, utterly corrupt politician.

    You kinda have to be part Italian (which I am) to understand violently passionate displays of emotion. Some cultural clichés are true. One of them is a lack of boundaries regarding personal life and being in public, not really having a sense of shame once the anger kicks in.


    Also, um, yeah, Italian men are kinda notorious for having mistresses because, in a weird twist, divorce is totally frowned upon.


    Sorry but I would never ever date an Italian man, or even and Italian-American guy. Too many issues.

    @restless: Er, I'm half Italian and my 100% Italian-American male cousins are the most doting, faithful husbands I've ever seen. They're also really awesome fathers, changing diapers, shuttling the peanuts to soccer practice, etc. Your cultural cliches don't apply to my family.

    So, how do you say "karma is a bitch" in Italian? Because once you are the mistress who gets the man, you are not exactly able to feign shock and dismay that his is his continued pattern.

    I will enjoy seeing how this plays out in a film based on their story in about fifteen to twenty years. Will Angelina Jolie be too old to play her?

    Her husband's list of potential parliamentarians consisted of a Big Brother housemate, a ballerina, a former Miss Italy contestant, and a couple of other young beauties conspicuously lacking in political experience


    I for one don't see what's wrong with that.

    @lobsterswithmittens: oops that's a late reply. Yes, it is the seven legged spider, and also because recently someone complained to Dodai about preventing commenters to use spiders as their icon, in her junk mail entry (which should really, REALLY become a weekly feature)

    I wish that the Olive Garden emphasized the "hilarious and overdramatic lovers' quarrel" aspect of Italian culture rather than the "unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks" aspect.

    I don't know about you guys, but I often communicate with my significant other via e-mails to newspapers. Nothing that weird about it.

    I kinda wish Fellini was around to make a movie out of this. Giulieta Masina could play the former Miss Italy contestant, a few children could poignantly scamper through the cobblestoned streets, there could be a dramatization of "The Magnificent Cuckold," starring circus performers on high-wire, all set to a whimsically-scored soundtrack.


    Brava!
