    They don't. Nor do 99.9% of Americans think people in the UK have dirty teeth. But most of the world think many people in the UK have SNAGGLY teeth. (Well-cared for, but not very straight.)

    No not all Americans. in fact everyone I know loves you guys! (Including me)

    Chin up about it! Don't be offended by stupid stereotypes. It's not like all Americans are in the same boat about stuff.

    You will always find a rude person in any country. And then you will probably also find some kind and polite people.

    The tooth joke is a classic, about the United Kingdom not having orthodontics, don't mind it, and also, "America" doesn't hate "England", it's some of the "AmericaNS", cause they're stupid, frankly I think the UK is a far more beautiful place than here.

    I don't hate England...I think some Americans don't like the English because they hear the same as you. I've also heard that the majority of English people look down on Americans.

    We hate you? You have to be kidding! XD You guys hate us!

    We have your flag everywhere and some people practically worship your accent! <- Not really.

    While on the other hand, you Brits say this:

    We're fat

    Ugly (I've seen some really pretty people here! ^.^)

    Stupid (*CoughCollegesCough*)

    Have no culture

    Violent (Which completely go against the stereotype of us being Christians. Isn't that a religion of love?)

    Hate communist

    Homophobes

    Religious freaks

    Conservative

    Don't know any languages (I'm learning Chinese, taking Spanish after that)

    Don't travel

    Don't know anything outside of America

    Trigger happy

    Rednecks

    Obese

    Lazy

    Hate anything non-American (*CoughMeltingPotCough*)

    Ignorant

    Insane

    Eat McDonalds (That stuff is nasty! >.<)

    Arrogant

    Spends hours in the bathroom

    No fashion sense

    Etc, etc.

    Not to mention, I've seen people make fun of how Americans spell or speak! :/ Yeah, have they heard of American English? It's where we spell things different ways because we pronounce stuff different ways.

    Not to mention, you guys complain about us not learning languages when I constantly deal with non-English speakers. If you're an immigrant (legal or illegal), you should at least know the language! >:(

    The worse we've said is that you have bad teeth. We don't even believe that, so...

    Source(s): Look up what you guys have said in here and forums. Also, I'm 14 and seemingly more mature than most adults on here. Pretty pathetic.

    I don't and I'm an American! I have a deep respect for European countries and especially England. Plus English accents sound so cool, I'm jealous :/

  • People are prejudiced, plain simple ignorance. How about some compassion? My first language wasn't English, so what? Does that not make me a human? Ignorance

    Hey I am America and I don't like this country and hate it's ways.

    For what reasons do you generalize all Americans?
