What are the kouros and kore figures?
They are the statues of young men (kouros) and young women (kore) from the Archaic Period of ancient Greece. They were life sized standing figures made of marble and represented mortal youths and maidens (not immortal gods), and were used for decorations. A kouros (male statue) represented an athletic youth (admired greatly by the Greeks), life sized, left foot slightly forward, arms at the sides. A kore (female statue) was done along the same lines. However, while the males were always nude, the females were always dressed.

Well I know of a super HOT boy, who is Greek. However, you should be watned that Greek men would describe themselves as 'players'. They swagger around and charm women with their cheeky ways, such as a big smile, a little wave and intense eye contact. They don't look that bad either, they usually sport gorgeous dark hair and lovely eyes.
However, ever get one alone and you will see they are predators for a woman. They will have inappropriate conversations with you and try and get you to go to bed with them.
Greek men should come with a health warning - bad bad but oh so tempting and good.
