British Stereotypes

Posted by MemoriesPortrait

There's a post asking about the stereotypes of Americans and how they are viewed from outside the US.

Here's an opportunity for people from outside of Britain to share the stereotypes that they have about the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

It's not necessarily you're experiences if you've visited but what you feel the stereotypes are that are held up.

This can be Britain as a whole or it can be the individual stereotypes for each country.

I might be getting ahead of myself but stiff upper lipped and rugby go hand in hand in Britain if that's your only insight.

Football on the other hand attracts a different crowd.

I'm from the Republic of Ireland so have been to Britain many times and there are many living here. I'm not even going to touch NI but I didn't find the Scots stingy, I do find the English quite stiffly upper lipped and the Welsh do love to sing. They're also arrogant as *beep* when it comes to rugby. Or at least they were till a week ago he he he...
