Medellín is the epicentre for fashion and beauty in South America. My first ever experience of seeing a paisa girl, was two years ago on a scooter, as we were travelling from the airport to my partners family home via taxi.
The young woman in question was early 20s, riding solo, commuting to work, great figure, finely dressed, great manicured finger nails (no gloves) and killer heels. I didn't see her face or hair under the sleek crash helmet, but it was an impressive introduction.
Colombian women take their appearance very seriously. All of the top Euro brands have a presence, as does the cosmetic industry with links to natural beauty products and healthy lifestyle. A lot of high end clothing, accessories and shoes are made here and sold worldwide. Branded clothes and merchandise are not cheap.
I've never understood the need for breast and butt implants, as the women here are already naturally attractive. With several centuries of fine blending of European, African and Native attributes.
As for the behaviour of Colombian men, I'd best not comment or stereotype.
