im just wondering if my online searches exaggerate or not (my tinder matches have not helped either)
any girls who've dated them?

I find them literal and to the point. But so am I so we get along. If they show you affection it’s genuine and not BS.

What?

Watch some old episodes of Eurotrash.
Have a little think about stereotyping and whether it's a good thing.
Consider whether addressing women as "girls" is really appropriate.

MaidofKent78 · 26/06/2019 21:22

Dated and subsequently married to a German. Definitely straight to the point, but an uptight lover? Hell, no!

Obviously a small sample of one, so can't speak for the entire male German population.

How is "are German people uptight lovers" not a generalisation? Hmm

Population of Germany = something like 82 million people.

AnnaNimmity · 26/06/2019 21:41

Yes all german guys are uptight

Just as all english guys keep their socks on during sex and all italian guys are stallions with massive cocks who love their mothers.

Generalisation much?!

PeriComoToes · 26/06/2019 21:43

Yeah. They're also all really efficient at the business of the sex. Ya.

🤔

Lifeisabeach09 · 26/06/2019 22:09

I dated two Germans (not at the same time.) Definitely not uptight! Grin

Great in bed.

JockTamsonsBairns · 26/06/2019 22:22

I had a ONS with a German twenty five years ago, and I can confirm he was very uptight in bed. So I think you might be on to something OP Hmm

batvixen123 · 26/06/2019 22:25

Having had sex with the entire male population of Germany, I can confirm that they all have the exact same sexual tastes, hangups, strengths and weaknesses. Much like English guys - if you've had sex with one, you've had sex with them all!

LaurieFairyCake · 26/06/2019 23:25

I've fucked 2 Germans

Both weirdly kinky. Frankly I'd have preferred 'uptight'.

SummerCharl · 27/06/2019 07:21

My sample size of one indicates a love of keeping socks on and staring off into the distance with eyes open while kissing. Pretty sure that doesn't mean all Germans are like that!!

ToEarlyForDecorations · 27/06/2019 19:07

I had a shower with a German guy once and gave him, er, hand relief. He couldn't have been that uptight.

katewhinesalot · 27/06/2019 19:10

I kissed one once. Does that count? It was nice.

Mia184 · 27/06/2019 20:29

I am German Smile. German men are certainly not uptight. They can be very direct and any feelings expressed are genuine. However, drunk German men are a nightmare.

Prokupatuscrakedatus · 27/06/2019 22:52

Well, I can't speak for the other 40 million but I quite like my own version.
How about seeing men as, well, individuals?

LellyMcKelly · 27/06/2019 22:56

I’ve never slept with a German but I would imagine one to very thorough and effective.

Bananalanacake · 27/06/2019 23:04

my man is German and very honest. tells me he loves me every day, so I am happy to find this is genuine and not bs. he always wears pyjamas in bed, don't know if all German men do this.

Prokupatuscrakedatus · 27/06/2019 23:07

@Bananalanacake
No.

Scarlettmaid · 28/06/2019 00:15

Do all English people have bad teeth? Do all French women have hairy armpits.

I am a Frenchwoman married to an English man and your question is stupid and ridiculous.

Theworldcouldbemymollusc · 28/06/2019 00:28

I had a German boyfriend....he was good fun and cute and very jealous!

1forAll74 · 28/06/2019 00:40

I had a few dates with a German guy,way back in the1960 era. He was about the same age as me then, about 23,he was a visiting student at the car firm where I worked. He was handsome, fit,and quite a serious chap, very direct in his speech, but as a kind of lover, he was loving and caring,and wow, no problems at all.

EBearhug · 28/06/2019 00:55

Definitely not uptight IME. Possibly annoying in other ways, but you need to assess that on an individual basis.

Her0utdoors · 28/06/2019 05:08

They are on the same sliding scale as men everywhere. Bare in mind that as an (I assume) British woman the generalisation of you by men from the Eastern Block is that we are dead from the neck down and sex with a dead body would be preferable.
