I was looking for something about Cinco de Mayo and found
this article about the similarities between romance in Mexico to romance in the
United States.
So sit back
and grab some Dos Equis, Corona, or what ever and enjoy the article.
In Mexico it is more romantic to give red roses then any other present. |

There are many points of similarities about romance between the United States and Mexico in the areas of special dinners, gifts, and music. A special dinner is considered romantic in both Mexico and in the United States. A special dinner in the United States is going to an expensive, five-star restaurant. However, in Mexico, a special dinner is when the food is homemade. The table has to have candles.

Another
similarity they share is gifts. American people consider it very romantic to
give a present to the person they love. Some of those gifts are red roses,
chocolates, and a diamond ring. In Mexico it is also very romantic to give
presents, but in Mexico it is more romantic to give red roses than any other
presents.
Finally, the
United States and Mexico also agree that music is one of the ways a person can
show romanticism. In the United States turning on the radio and listening to
soft music is considered romantic since it has a slow rhythm and the words of
the songs are very nice. In Mexico soft music is also considered very romantic.
However, in Mexico to turn on the radio and listen to music is not enough.
Mexico is more romantic because men serenade their loves singing those soft
songs in person.
In
conclusion, although both countries have many points of similarities about
romance, Mexico is more romantic because Mexican people show their romanticism
by doing the things by themselves.
