what do you think of americans
I wonder what forienigers think of americans. I remember when i went to Europe, a lot of people didn't like the americans for stuff that we were doing to iraq. In Europe they tried to stop buying stuff from america like for example,ciggerates. Im not an American, but i do live in the United States and i was born here, but i dont see any harm in Americans at all. I would like to know what your opinions are about liking Americans. I would like to hear from you soon... :)

Perspective on nationality I am American, but had similar experiences traveling in other countries. I met people who had negative opinions of the US government, which they associated with all American people. At first I was offended that I was being stereotyped, but later learned this is something each of us does, whether we realize it or not. It really helped to have conversations (like this!) to understand each person's point of view and tell them about mine. I think it's interesting that you were born and live in the US, but don't consider yourself an American. Is there another nationality with which you identify? I would like to hear more about the differences and similarities you see between your nationality and Americans', based on your experience living in the US.

i am born an indian. and im stayin in mumbai . i dont have anything against ordinary americans. i do have problems with the american govt 's actions but that in no way affects my perception on individual americans. for me 'liking' depends on the individual irrespective of where she /he come from . of course media puts a lot of stereotypes before us but in the end it doesnt matter. wht matters is the kind of one to one interaction i have with the person . :)
