you would get much more diverse stereotypes then, like the Scots being ginger kilt wearers eating haggis living in their old castles, and the Wales being coal mining sheep shaggers and of course your English tea drinkersby the way i’m scottish and i do none of that apart from eat haggis which is actually delicious – and for those that don’t know what haggis is it’s a wee rugby ball shaped animal that runs round the hills with two legs shorter than the other two so that it isn’t slanted on the side of the hill. Houses and gardens are important social stages for dinner parties, BBQs or occasionally just staying in and watch TV.Europeans do not have much stereotypes about this small central European country. Then, according to some Lithuanians, among the first stereotyped questions they sometimes get figure the funny “Do you have televisions in Lithuania?”, “How many people live in your village?, “Do you have a horse?” or even the amazing “Can you teach me how to say something in Polish?”. Korea does not have a unique culture of their own. Because apparently you are ignorant at the fact that Koreans hates being told that their culture is “borrowed” from the Chinese, and the Japanese and their blood line descended from Mongols. Mainly when we consider the southern region (massively influenced by germans and italians), the northeastern region (heavy influence of the french and the dutch) and the rest of the southeast (where Rio is located), which differs a lot from Rio de Janeiro. Stanford Libraries' official online search tool for books, media, journals, databases, government documents and more. Cock-a-doodle-doo! The italians love having sex with their own children. I got cursed by a Korean lady because I couldnt speak their dirty language. It roughly means “nostalgia” or “homesickness”.Europe seems to have a clear image of what the Spaniards look like: “a nation high on fiestas, with stunning women who can’t go to the bullfight dressed in miniskirts lest their boyfriends and husbands (who are so macho) have a fit.
Greek concerns over Macedonian expansionist ambitions – over the region of northern Greece also known as Macedonia – are an obvious red herring. Do you happen to check if your hagwon actually pays your healthcare? Last, the stereotype applying to many Northern European countries stating that people there drink insane quantities of vodka can also be heard for Lithuania.Europeans in general do not differentiate that much Latvia from its direct Baltic neighbors, and they consequently don’t have any particular stereotype for Latvians, but Estonians do! Things are really escalating in our country at a bad pace (you know the whole “russia is trying to get into greece’s pants thing”) and this really put a smile on my face and let me forget my worries for a while :-) Hey.I am danish. i have no idea how i'm going to do this and i don't have a stereotype. To places like Korea.– Oh you tell me, Koreans are slipping into the US through Mexico and Canada and work their vajayjays off to pay off a loan from a Korean gang back in Korea. It may be more useful to think rather of prototypes, which allow for variation around a set of core characteristics.Im Irish, I agree with all of ours but we dont screw sheep, Wales doim italian but i dont agree that italians are pasta/pizza freaksnot all of this are true plus they are stereotypes but thanks i have a project with stereotypes on countries so thanks:D X3Positive Stereotype of Nepal: Fearless, Friendly, Ultra cultural and religiousHaha this cracked me up =D You pretty mujch got New Zealanders down to a t- all thats missing is our tendancy to wear jandels or no shoes at all, no matter to the weather or locationI love this list, it’s particulary true for the french people. It’s maybe part of the human conscience to concentrate on bad or negative things, instead of concentrating on the things that connect us.Please feel free to comment and to add your own experiences.Maybe we can all help to put some of the worst stereotypes to rest. I think it’s more because of our (pretty) high education… thing.I’m Polish and I think that some of these stereotypes might actually be true. CheersPerhaps the trashy, inbred, ignorant attitude about other cultures that you and other (unfortunately always SO outspoken) Americans employ is the reason people want to spit at you and your pal. Last, Europeans consider that the typical Dutch shed keeps at least a dozen bicycles. They are considered to be good at business, but with a obsession to buy only Mercedes or BMW. I am not even from the States, so sod off. Go to Korea first before you talk shit here.
Moldova is also stereotyped as being full of children being raised by grandparents while their parents are off working in other countries.

They are SOO TRUE.I am a Brit who moved to Sweden 7 yrs ago and I find the Swedes to be the most State/controlled, uptight, sombre, boring people on the planet…. We do have stereotypes you just got to look deep into it. Many other cultures are more verbal and have small talk – a Finn, uninterested in such pleasantries, might be taken as rude.
