What it looks like is that Americans try to act like they are the person they look up to. That's what I see most on Youtube & television.
I believe and really hope that most people are just their own personality anywhere on the world.
You don't see that often on television and other media, I think because everyone wants to act and show the best version of himself, and in American culture that's a little more common that in other cultures.
People from other countries or continents all have their different behaviors and ways. When you accept that, you're peaceful! <3
Just my opinion.
To be extra rude:
-I could see Americans as actors or fake persons
-I could see all Asian people as serious, smart and disciplined people
-I could see all Middle-East people as chaotic people who love to shout
-I could see all Somalians as pirates
-I could see all Scandinavians as vikings
But these are just misconceptions because you don't know the people that well.
How do you guys see, or could you form an image of Europeans based on media?
thx for your comment. Of course every people, culture and ethnicity have to bear prejudices and misbelieves about themselves, but Americans seems to me more worried about this than others :)
Maybe they see Europeans as the cooler guys on their media? hahahah
