• Argentines are direct conversationalists. Be prepared for personal questions and passionate discussions, which may involve interruptions. Greetings often include cheek kissing between women, and between men and women in major cities; men typically shake hands but may kiss when parting. For social events, punctuality is casual, though it is expected for business appointments. Exercise caution when discussing politics, regional rivalries, or the Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas).
