Default Re: How do Americans view Europeans?

Europeans:
Positives:
-easy going
-sane social policy
-sane government/religion
-better public education
-EXCELLENT PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION

Negatives:
-Think they know ALL ABOUT the U.S. because they see Hollywood movies and read Le Monde articles about us.
-Think America=Texas /is one homogeneous splotch of McMansions, strip malls, and McDonalds.
-Love to judge people based on their nationality.
-Know their culture is the best and are generally not open to foreign cultural influence. More true in France, less true in N. Europe.
-Think Americans are ignorant because we don't know about the rest of the world, meaning Europe. They are just as ignorant about Asia and Africa.
-Hate McDonalds, but I swear to god its more popular there than here. All the young folks go there. In the U.S. you see pathetic fat people.
-OBSESSED with America, and how inferior it is.

I do like Europeans, I just wanted to get the rants off my chest because it seems like the flak is always one way.
