Greeks v. Italians debate (Who has the superior culture)

A Greek and an Italian were sitting in a Starbuck's one day discussing who had the superior culture.
 
Over triple lattes the Greek guy says: "Well, we have the Parthenon."  
Arching his eyebrows, the Italian replies:
"We have the Coliseum."  

The Greek retorts:
"We Greeks gave birth to advanced mathematics."  
The Italian, nodding agreement, says:
"But, we built the Roman Empire." 

And so they go on and on until the Greek comes up with what he thinks will end the discussion.

With a flourish of finality the Greek says:
"We invented sex!"  
The Italian replies:
"That is true, but it was the Italians who introduced it to women!"
