Americans are at least considerate. Why are Europeans so arrogant? ?

From my experience face to face with European students in college and talking to European people at my call center job, It seems they think they are the center of the universe. They are arrogant, egocentric, sarcastic, and just plain rude people. Any other Americans have similar experiences?

    Europeans aren't arrogant, americans are. I've known many european people and many americans. Most of the americans think their country is better than everyone elses and that they are better because the u.s is 'the richest and best country in the world'

    I think Americans are more arrogant than Europeans.

    Asians are generally more humble than Americans and Europeans.

    Yes, but the reason for such might be because we are Americans, meaning they might just be saving these attitudes just for us, in general though, europe seems to be a less happy/fullfilling place.

    I have Europeans friends as well, but yes this trend exists, why, many reasons, media, experiences, insecurity, politics ect.

    And till you're community American...... pot, meet kettle. I communicate in many situations with human beings both presently residing in Europe or who're from there initially yet residing elsewhere atm, and no, they don't prefer to be like human beings for the most area. Europeans have this tremendous experience of who they are as a nationwide identity and they don't seem to be self deprecating as man or woman international locations. nationwide delight, even as absolutely no longer a huge deal like it really is right here interior the states, isn't some thing they have been conditioned to be embarrassed about. Many ecu international locations celebrate their sovereignty...or they did till ecu. American way of existence, as considered by the ecu lens, is both compelling and repulsive or laughable. highly our perspectives on sex. Our u . s . a . isn't any doubt really one of the most sexualized media-sensible; sex is everywhere, it sells each thing, we deal with pornstars like ambassadors and fasten a sexual undercurrent to each thing (it is advantageous, i'm professional sex myself and performance an open recommendations with regards to maximum issues sexual). The irony, the reason Europeans locate us humorous, lies interior the actual shown actuality that regardless of ways a lot we hype it, we are oftentimes prudes and heavy surpassed censors even as it includes really sexual sex. we do not license sex workers, we flinch and blush at 'hardcore' sexual language (i'm in awe of ways Europeans and Aussies enable the c-bomb fly without batting an eyelash, i desire to faster or later be as gifted as them, lol). We also freak out about a lengthy time period of consent, yet only for women. it truly is been bred into our way of existence to apply sex like some form of overseas money; human beings engaged in casual sex are labelled whores, even as in some/maximum ecu coutnries, it truly is only no longer that massive of a deal. absolutely, i imagine it truly is why they stay longer than us, or a minimum of seem stay extra fortuitously and rigidity loose...they don't seem to be all twitterpated about fvcking. i imagine perchance their suggestion that we develop into extra like them is a kindness....for the most area, a minimum of in my experience, they prefer us nicely adequate, they only imagine us somewhat daft in some parts lol
