Stereotypes full of peace. In London, there is always rain in Russia bears walk the streets and drink vodka, and Japan is considered to be the smartest country in the world. It is difficult to say which of the stereotypes deserves the right to exist, but some are not quite without foundation. For example, many fast foods and a sedentary lifestyle have led to the fact that the average citizen of the United States not only glutton, but the fattest people on earth. After watching the film, the experiment of the American television journalist Morgan Spurloka «Supersize me» («Increase I"), where he spent months are exclusively products of McDonald's, you can understand how these stereotypes are born.

Stereotype №1: Americans eat only hamburgers

On the one hand, many McDonald's and Burger King Uendiz really are in demand in the United States. For unusual stomach some foods may seem synthetic and fruit - tasteless and rubber. On the other hand, a variety of shops organic food is, even in small towns. That is someone who wants to be useful to eat, always find what to eat. And these small health food shops are in demand, despite the fact that the food is many times more expensive.

Stereotype №2: Americans are stupid

We can say that this stereotype was born on the very first of all. Yes, Americans may be slightly limited in knowledge, and are interested only his country (which is not surprising). On the other hand, in this country it has gathered the largest number of people who love to travel. And when a person travels outside of his "kingdom", it turns into a cosmopolitan limitations. Americans like no other open to new cultures, trends, people can also because of nationality "American" as such does not exist. They, perhaps, think that World War II they have won, but it is, so to say, the cost of production.

Stereotype №3: all Americans - greedy

Usually proof of this result by the fact that they are paying at restaurants every man for himself, even if it's a romantic date Romantic date: how to spend an unforgettable meeting . It is important to keep in mind who gets invited to a restaurant, to a large bill for banquet did not surprise. Sometimes Americans actually pay for others, it all depends on the situation. On the other hand these moments are taught to plan the budget, which is important. The fact is that Americans appreciate money - for them a dollar or a hundred have the same value. And money like being respected. According to many respondents, the number of the most generous and helpful people there are in this country.

Stereotype №4: all am erikantsy - friendly and always smiling

The friendliness of the average American is measured by two things - his smile and the phrase «excuse me». They can communicate with you so that you will believe in what is their best friend. The next day, they can also go and forget to say hello to you. Take it easy. Simply, they are Americans. They respect their personal space and do not tolerate interference in it. A smile - is so natural politeness, which, incidentally, is used by service personnel in all areas of activity.

Stereotype №5: look for Americans does not matter

This stereotype is definitely some truth. It is necessary to look into the campus, schools, offices, and just in the typical American home. Jeans, tracksuits Tracksuits: breaking all records   Fashion - it is used for all occasions. If a university professor came to class wearing shorts, tie and sneakers, no one would look at him askance. There definitely do not meet on clothes, and nedyuzhy mind appreciated. However, may not be allowed in a certain restaurant, if it is said that the only entrance in evening dress. That is, no matter what his coat there, and the floor is completely indifferent administration of this institution, to go and take it on rent. Although there are here and one "but." Appearance for Americans, maybe it does not matter, but the purity of the clothes, the smell - is particularly important. If the same jersey worn for two days, is to prepare for a suspicious look. And it is unlikely someone will wonder what this person does not sweat, and taking a shower twice a day, although it is also, of course, important.
