Forums - General Discussion - What is the current stereotype of British people?

I'm wondering if other countries' views (especially American) is any different.

let me check my handy map

I don't exactly know where you are in my map, but I've been in britain and remember seeing green grass and yellow grass, so I view your kind as either pussies or kangaroos.



TBH Britain is famous for hooliganism and having bad teeth. Not saying I agree with it but that is the stereotype.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

do you know how insulting that is?

Hey, we Spanish people are famous for being lazy and many other bad things I'm sure. If you state that stereotype I'm not gonna feel insulted, I know it exists, it doesn't mean it's true. The Frech are famous for being full of themselves. The Americans are famous for rednecks.

These stereotypes are stupid. Don't feel insulted if I just state the stereotype, it doesn't mean I believe it.

Oh I agree... but if you quoted some stereotypes youd be banned for racism... its the double standards that bug me.

You mean some stereotypes in particular? I'm curious, which ones would those be? (unless you're afraid of getting banned, I guess).

And just so you know I've lived in London for a while (though I'm leaving soon) and I have quite a few good British friends and I can tell you many good things about them. If someone would really believe in this I would be the first one to crrect them.

UK = Worst teeth hygiene in the world (along with Japan) and dainty little tea-sippers

And, as of recent events, they're also barbaric, self-righteous cave-men who have no sense of civility.


What? Stereotypes are supposed to be over-the-top.

*hides*

Thank you. I feel less of a monster for stating this in my previous post. Now kowenicki can go after you. :D
