We all know some stereotypes. I hold nothing against clichés and some of my best friends are in fact clichés. So when it comes to French people:
- They all wear berets. Well, today we see people wearing hoodies and baseball caps, but not berets, red scarf and the baguette in a hand.
- They all live in Paris or on the French Riviera or no matter where they live they have all the view of the Eiffel Tower. They eat frogs, stinky cheeses, croissants, fois gras and they drink only champagne and the wine. Nothing more.
- French people are rude.This is one of the main stereotypes about the French, and probably the most unfair. They are generally considered to be warm and friendly – and in my experience, they are.
In case of British people:
- They all live in London or the Countryside – it’s easy to see why people belive this if you look at postcard from Britain can you see Big Ben or some castles. Inn fact, people mostly live in crowded and small cities.
- They use red buses and they all love when the weather is grey cold and wet, they are considered to have never seen the sunshine :D
- Their favourite English man is obviously David Beckham and the women, naturally – is queen. They obsees over the royals, they love them. Many foreigners they meet ask if you’ve ever met the Queen.
- They all drink a tea with milk every day, like it was a religious act:)
