Abbie asked in Society & CultureLanguages · 8 years ago

where do the english stereo types come from?

dear rest of the world,

us ENGLISH (not british) are not any of the following:

people with really bad teeth (all our dental care is free)

have "tea and scones" time (i hate scones)

not many of us speak like the queen (far from actually)

it doesn't rain EVERYDAY!!

men don't wear bowler hats

not everyone watches football /soccer

and we do not drink warm beer

just to clarify it :)

    So just because you and some people you know don't do some of those things means the rest of the british population is the same way? I've met quite a few that fit the stereotype perfectly.
