...they say that there [beyond the Andes] lives a fearsome and unbearable tribe called "the Argentines"...
— Roberto Bolaño in Fragmentos de un regreso al país natal
Stereotypes of Argentines are generalizations or stereotypes about Argentines. Stereotypes associated with Argentines vary from country to country depending on the prevalent stereotype in each culture.
In Brazil, they are viewed as arrogant, proud, narcissistic and racist.[1] Chileans often depict them as arrogant[2], effeminated, bold, full of grandeur and with a marked Bonaerense Rioplatense Dialect.
In addition, they have been known to have slow reactions, as noted by neighbouring Brazilian townships. This most likely comes from Brazilian folklore. The story involving an Argentine messenger, who fails to deliver a crucial message to the Itaqui village, resulting in the defeat of the village at the hands of the Portuguese Conquerors.
