I always heard that all Indians are corrupt, they are all vegetarians and worship cows and all sing and dance at weddings like in the Bollywood films.I don't know whether it is right or wrong because I never went there but can you tell me...


I have not been to India but I can guess some of these stereotypes do not apply to everyone.

Are Americans rude ???

I am really sorry but I always heard that people from UK and USA are very rude .they underestimate others I don't know whether it is right or wrong because I never went their but can you tell me ...

As with many countries, the United States is very very large. There are more than 300 million people who you could call "Americans" (and many, many more if you include anyone from the American continent). Undoubtedly, you will find rude people among this population and, depending on your experience when you visit, could leave you with the impression that "Americans" in general are rude. I hope that you have the opportunity to visit and find that there are more kind people than rude ones. I like to think this is true in every country.

As for "they underestimate others" I think you may be referring to ethnocentrism, which means a person evaluates all cultures based on their own cultural and social norms. In other words, when something is different from our own culture we have a tendency to think it is "weird" or even "wrong". This can definitely be a problem among Americans (and other nationalities as well). However, I believe most people today are open to learning about different cultures and accepting our differences as a thing of beauty and not as a reason to be prejudiced. This is not true of everyone of course, but again, I like to think there are more open-minded people than close-minded ones. Understand that ethnocentrism is often a product of ignorance rather than intentional rudeness or derision. 

In short, I hope you have the chance to visit the United States and meet the many wonderful people who reside there and, if you do, please feel encouraged to share your own culture in order to offer different insights and foster better understanding. 

I hope this answers your question. Have a great day!

Are Americans rude?

I am really sorry, but I've always heard that people from the UK and the USA are very rude and that they underestimate others. I don't know whether this is true or false because I've never been there. Can anyone  tell me their experiences?
