She maybe know better Africaans than English, where she lives,Pretoria,Africaans is mainly the spoken language, though is more likely to speak better than Africaans, the local African version FANAKALO her mother tonque.-
equiya: you didn't even understand what I said.
I said I DO NOT TAKE ODERS FROM YOU I did not ask you to take orders from me
sorry, I don't know Afrikaans so I cannot write in that language
sassinspain: woof woof, correct me if I'm wrong but is this not a dating site where you are trying to attract people to you??? I know I'm new and not totally au fait with what goes on here, but wowser! We all have our opinions but really, what purpose does a topic like this serve? Especially when so few choices are given, it should read "who is the most arrogant nation out of these 6 nationalities" surely ... and given the standard of posting on this thread I'm afraid I'd have to vote African!!!.. Awaits to be added to the worm pile!
Welcome to the worm gang! Maybe we should decide now what kind of worm each of us is
Godsgift: But this is surely a triumph for feminism. Any rediculous thread a man can think of can now be matched by a woman. At last we have true equality!
yup ...don't you just hate it when women have to have everything.....why can't us men have just this one thing to ourselves...

equiya: me too. I used to have an Aussie BF when I was in Brussels
Back before computers and you had to sit down and write this thing called a letter I had a penpal. It was in third grade and we all got one. Mine was in New Zealand. I will never forget her. I still to this day wonder what happened to her. We wrote for five years I believe.
Merriweather: ahhhh nice to see us Aussies thought of as quiet and tranquil... I'd describe us as " easy going" and apathetic... pretty well fits the bill....
but I love the english although Australia has a good population of them... but then we have such a huge population percentage of all countries.... tis our immigration policy...
tis loverly... we get all sorts of restuarants and take away food places with all the new cultures coming in... Grand I say..!!
but you guys love your "curry bashings" wherein indian students are routinely beaten up!
Even with a bag of potatoes having just 1 rotten potato, it spoils a few and never all. I sure as hell don't expect people that aren't interested to vote. I do it just for the laughters it brings. Amazing enough, how all the complainants are never voting but posting in the threads. If I found a thread boring, I pass. Its the no. of comments that puts the last smile on me. So enjoy my followers, esp you parasites! Eq you are a hater, and I ain't bothered!

Intellow: Love me or hate, American's gets my vote!
I'm guessing you haven't met too many Americans if you think all of us are arrogant.
About the French My father was in Scotland at one of the naval bases when my mother flew over for their second honeymoon in Europe. While on a train going thru France, a conductor checked their tickets and upon hearing their accents treated them like dirt and even said "Americans" like it was a cuss word. My parents are the two nicest people anyone could meet

All national stereotypes are exaggerations and generalizations. In any country there is a lot of diversity.
But at the same time National stereotypes also have a lot of truth to them. Americans are known to be relatively arrogant and pushy. But it probably has more to do with their decades of being the richest and most economically successful nation.
I was in Japan when the Japanese economy took off and the dollar underwent a big devaluation. The normally humble Japanese were suddenly full of nationalistic pride and began to consider themselves as superior to all "gaijins". Of course they got humbled again when their economic bubble burst a few years later.
All people react about the same in the same circumstances.

Too bad they got so cocky over it...
I do think that the french have a lot to be proud about,as should most other nations.But it is how you treat others.I have lost count of the number of Countries I have visited and the Parissien men are an embarrassment to there own Countrymen with there arrogant attitude.I have been told this by a few none Parissien french.

No, I don't think so. I don't think she has ever been in the US. All she knows about the US is what she hears in the media. SHE does NOT know what she is talking about. She calls me a hater, little does she know that it says more about her and her ignorance than me. She has never left her little and crime ridden SA or met people from other nations.
venusenvy: Hey EQ, looks like the Mods are onto worm woman here, they are starting to pull her threads. Just when we were having so much fun being in the worm club....sigh...
That explains why I no longer see that thread. Only 2 people voted in the poll, can you imagine?
