AMERICANS VERSUS FOREIGNERS: What foreigners like and dislike most about America?!
7-Popularity of wearing pantyhose without underwear.
Yet, boy-a-boy, Arab men love it, as long as, it is not their wives
who are wearing it.
8-American men’s obsession with women’s big breast.
African, Asian and Arab men love to look at an American woman’s
prosperous breast. But, the cultured European men and more
particularly the French men consider the big breast of a woman as a
sign of vulgarity. To them, women with big breast are vulgar. This
idea came to life at the dawn of the Parisian haute couture and the
beginning of the Parisian fashion runway. The whole story began with
Christian Dior and his “scrambled egg breast” mannequins in Paris at
the turn of the century.
9- American women intense interest in breast
enhancement.
We will not talk about that. We already know what they are talking
about. Nevertheless, there is a lot of hypocrisy in their statements,
for their biggest and favorite stars had a “big bazooka breast” like
Silvana Mangano, Rosanna Podesta, Sophia Loren, Ursula Andress,
etc……But, it is quite accurate to say that, the most “respected” and
talented foreign stars had an “intellectual breast”, meaning regular
size, such as Marina Vlady, Simone Signoret (when she was young),
Ingrid Bergman, Anouk Aime, Danielle Darrieux, etc…
10-Taking out the trash as the married man’s
responsibility.
This, trashes them out completely. But, their wives like it!
11-Frequent and popular use of savings coupons.
Holly God! They hate it. They consider the use of savings coupons as
an indication of avarice, stinginess and cheapness. They hate it most,
when they have to stay in line at the supermarkets check outs waiting
for those who are digging in their purses or bags for these bloody
coupons. And it gets worst, when they see a woman flashing and
flashing and flashing tons of them. They go ape!! |
12-Buying merchandise, goods, shoes and clothing only
when they are on sale.
13-Americans calling their friends and folks only on
the weekend to save money.
14-Americans splitting the restaurant tabs in public.
To
foreigners, this is the ultimate public insult. The Arabs have a
saying “ Eat bread and olive at home. But when you go out, buy the
whole damned restaurant.” In France they say: “A tout seigneur, tout
honneur.”
15-American sex and marriage
counseling. This is a no
no! A taboo! Many Arabs object to any form and kind of a sex
counseling. Are you kidding? Some of them will not even allow their
wives to have a regular medical check up if the physician has a
moustache!! Usually, their wives medical visitations are monitored.
As to marriage counseling, they consider it as a direct interference
in their conjugal and marital affairs and an insult to their
manhood. Europeans are different. Although they might take marriage
counseling into consideration, they remain very skeptical about
sex counseling. More skeptical about American sex counseling, for
they consider American sex counselors and therapists as nuts and
pretentious. They do strongly believe that the greatest number of
those sex therapists in America failed in their sex life and need
sex counselors themselves!
16-American citizens referring to the President and the First Lady
by their given names and or shortening their names.
Very true. Have you during one of your visits to France, ever tried
to call President General de Gaulle by his first name (as we do
sometimes in America) or shorten his name to Charlie or Gauly? Have
you? Ask those who did, what happened to them?! Especially those who
were detained at La Prefecture or at La Gendarmerie!!! Mon Dieu!!!
17-Unfamiliarity of Americans with popular artists and stars who are
very well known in their countries.
18-American women washing the dog in their bathtub.
19-Renting a tuxedo, even shoes for one time big affair.
20-American men constantly wearing a bright yellow tie to look sharp
and stylish.
21-To be unable to open a bank account without a social security
number. This is a
novelty to them, for it is very true, in many foreign countries, you
don’t need a social security card to open an account. Just flash
your national ID card and boom, kaboom, you’re in. More: NEXT |
