bodypaul Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 Having lived in most of Europe, including Brussels, Milan, Paris, Copenhagen and London I can truly say the rudest people are the brits. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So madsere ..... how many Brits did you see in London??? Not many I bet! There are more Africans, African British (blacks), Pakis, Indians, Arabs, Jews, Chinese than Anglo Saxons!! Those you thought were Brits are more likely to be ..... East European, South African, Aussie <deleted>, Zimbabwean or Irish!! So there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Osborne Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 I always hold the door open, but I do it for my benefit not for theirs. If they don't appreciate it - who gives a fk? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> why would hold a door open for somebody for your benifit and then go through the thought process of asking yourself if they appriciated it and coming to the conclusion that you don't give a fk?? if I were you, I would allocate my limited brain processing abilities to a more practical use.

William Osborne Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 On the subject of holding the door open for ladies and allowing them to go ahead of you...I have always done this as a matter of habit. Here in the US it's always received with either shock or rolled eyes; in most of Europe, it's de rigeur--just another old world custom like kissing hands. When I first started doing this with my fiancee, she was very surprised. She explained to me that in Thai custom, the man always goes first, ahead of the woman, not because of any sort of superiority, but because in the old days, when living at the edge of the jungle, there was always the possibility of a wild animal. So the man going first is a custom that arose out of protection. Like the Western custom of the man walking on the outside nearest the street, to protect the woman from getting splashed by a car. So when I now walk ahead of her into the supermarket, it's because if there's a tiger in aisle five, I'll be the one to get eaten instead of her. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ha ha, if one does this in HK, that lady most likely is going to find another door herself.(thinking that there must be something wrong ahead) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i lived in france for some time, and when i did it, as i was used to do so, the ladies where surprised and stated, they had never experienced this by french guys - and then french guys are said to be very polite?? maybe we should have lived last century? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have never lived in France but having to endure Charles de Gualle airport and associated Air France flights regularly for the past 12 months, they would have to be the most arrogant people in the civilized world. Unfortunatly the only reason I use them is they have a monoply on all regular flights to north and west Africa. It is unsurprising that I read recently (survey from Durex) that French men have the smallest pen*ses in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Natioanl Pride , we aren't even allowed to show a flag these days without being accused of inciting racism. Brits are ok on the whole , the Government is not.

Saying that there are 7 polite people left out of 60,000,000 in the UK hardly constitutes a serious statement but you obviously have no concept of humour because you don't seem to be able to grasp this.

Having lived in most of Europe, including Brussels, Milan, Paris, Copenhagen and London I can truly say the rudest people are the brits. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> madsere, I imagine, if you were talking of 'brits' to British people when you lived in London, you may well have received some rudeness in return. Whatever nationality you are... you have shown your rudeness here on this public forum. I too have travelled far and wide and lived in many countries. The most polite I have found are the Thais... and the rudest, or most ignorant of manners, in France and Israel.

Phil Conners Posted January 21, 2005 Author Share Posted January 21, 2005 (edited) My point was and has always been that my nationality is irrelevant. I am not the one thumbing my nationality here. Go back and check "Marmite the dog"s oneliner: No, most Frenchmen are rude - as are most continental Europeans. The politest people are the English Gentlemen, of which there are about 7 of us leffYes it is so easy to come later and say it was a joke. None of you brits felt it necessary to get up at the time to excuse or explain the statement. There were no smilies, on the contrary there was a sadlie... When YOU are saying the rest of the world are rude it's ok, but when I say YOU are rude such as the quotes below, it's not .... Those you thought were Brits are more likely to be ..... East European, South African, Aussie <deleted>, Zimbabwean or Irish!! It is unsurprising that I read recently (survey from Durex) that French men have the smallest pen*ses in Europe.
