The thread of stereotypes

[mariowuitomari]

I would like to know about the stereotypes you have about other nationalities. For example my stereotypes about Americans are that they eat fatty food everyday that they are singing the american anthem all the time and driving very fast across the route 66

The official Route 66 was removed from being an official highway in 1985. There are signs in places of where the former route was.

Spanish people take a siesta everyday.

All British people drink tea.

All of us here on the TMF are perverts.

I must say, I represent that remark!

Everyone has a reason for why they're acting like an ass.

Russians are even worse alcoholics than Wisconsinites

I'm American and I do have stereotypical thoughts of them, and I should know because I have to deal with them almost every day, and I say ALMOST because some days I don't even leave the house, and even on the days I do, I don't always deal with anyone, other than the check out girl at the convenient store. But my idea of Americans is that they are way too preoccupied with material things. They seem to put so much emphasis on money, appearances, etc., even if they don't even have the money to keep UP the appearance, which is often the case, because it seems many are in debt and living off credit cards. They seem to feel the need to own all these things that they don't really need at all.

I could go on and on, but you get the idea. I think the rest of the world tends to be like this too, but maybe less so. It's one reason I always wanted to live in a different English speaking country, like England. And our summers are way too hot here, too.

lol well technically people don't need anything at all, but as you slowly think about things you'd like everyone has this "I have the money for it!.......UNTIL I DON'T!" mindset about life. It would kind of go against the "party like it's 1999/the last day of your life/mardi gras every day" American/New York style of trying to hype the everloving shit out of everyone for every moment mostly in the name of squeezing dollars from pockets and then asking why the fuck they're so hostile about being approached.

Yea, idk, I don't really like trying to talk about the stereotypes of other countries when who knows how many stereotypes I'll fit myself.

That's what it is; I have to deal with enough right here on my own plate, so why the hell would I want to go mouthing off about other countries I've never even been too? That just looks...ignergrint.

No way I am accepting this invitation to post bigotry. 😱

Took me a while to decipher that, but you said please tell you more? Well....I think I said enough! I don't wanna go putting down my fellow Americans too much either. It works both ways, lol!

Yeah and you're right; they probably DO eat too much, and all the wrong things too. I heard that most Americans are overweight, which is another reason they waste too much money; eating too much food they don't need. In fact many people here refer to me as being skinny, yet my doctor says I'm the normal weight for my height. So go figure. I even heard a girl here in California say she WANTS to be skinny, as if being skinny is sexy, which I don't understand; why be underweight? The word "skinny", it seems, has actually become a positive thing, whereas I remember in the past it was not cool to be so; you were expected to eat more or lift weights or something in order to fill yourself out. I hear so many people these days talking about going to the gym, but I get the feeling it's not to build their muscles up; I think it's more to lose whatever extra they don't want. That and just the fact that it's healthy to exercise. Personally I'd sooner not pay to go to a gym and just get the exercise I need from my day to day activities, which seems to work OK for ME.

Not true! I can categorically deny that assumption! 😉

Someone told me that if you have thick brows, then, you have thick pubic hair! Feel free to debunk this statement. 😱

lol, weelllll, I'm afraid I'm amongst those who reinforce that stereotype.

Stereotype -- all Germans are methodical and efficient (personally I see these as admirable traits) -- I would also observe that they make amazing porn, lol.

Might be true; I do have thick eyebrows, but then I shave them to make them thinner; I do it every morning when I shave my face. I should just go to an electrolysist but I can't afford it. I probably do have thick pubic hair too, but I cut that short on a regular basic. BASIS. I heard guys these days actually SHAVE it, the same way they would shave their face, which I don't understand because who's going to SEE it down there? While the face, EVERYONE sees, yet now guys go around NOT shaving their face, well you either see a lot of full grown beards, or HALF beards, etc. Oh, and my PUBLIC hair? Not real short but not real long either. Spikey. I'd never let it grow so long I'd have to wear a pony tail, put it THAT way. What do you TAKE me for, a hippy with a beard??????
