What do you think of it?

How about stereotyping several people around the world, anyone want to?

That was a hard question, English people are hard to stereotype.

You're joking, right? You have the uptight, arrogant and posh English stereotype (think, tweed jacket with leather elbow patches, a pipe, a black umbrella and a bowl hat) and the football hooligan.

That's all I can think of right now.

I'm wondering if Belgium is known enough around the world to even have a stereotype.

Now I remember, English people are magnets to football, and they have to have their cup of tea, as of Belgian stereotypes, after what I've heard, they are tolerant of others?

Well, the only stereotype I've ever seemed to fit is the Aspie one! :lol: You know - nerdy, awkward, talks non-stop about a special interest and not much else, always wears the same clothes, etc., etc., etc...

I'm English, so I should be watching Coronation Street at the moment...

But then again, I'm a teenage girl in Lower Hutt, so I should be completely bladdered and behind a bush in a local school playground, wearing very little except Ugg boots, with a 19-year-old male.

The only bit of that last scenario I would ever fit is that I wouldn't remember the guy's name the next day!
