American Expat Stereotypes

[Scotwight]

Looking for the seasoned veterans to share their immense knowledge and wisdom for stereotyping of the American Expat population.   I'm new to this forum and I hear that Americans really smell bad, rarely shower, have bad teeth and treat Thai ladies very poorly.  So all you experienced guys is it true.  Of course not looking to bash anyone.

My teeth are fine

The first one was ill advised- this is pure troll.  I thought it was the French who rarely shower, the Brits with bad teeth, and the Thai lads who treat those gals so poorly.

Sorry there are so many I get my stereotypes confused.  Maybe we should start a racial and religious stereotype thread too so we could keep them all straight (no pun intended) after all what's good for the Thai is good for the gander.

I think OP is totally wrong.

Stereotype would be overweight and loud, but clean and with perfect teeth.

Americans must have the best teeth in the world.

Odd, I have seldom ever met an "all American" white guy" that had any of the poor qualities you mentioned. 

For me I shower twice a day and always smell nice, at my age I have all my original teeth and plan on keeping them with proper dentistry and have always treated  women I dated or married with the utmost respect.

 

However the problem nowadays is what is an "American?" There are stinky Indians and Mexicans. Vietnamese, , Chinese have terrible grey teeth and stink. Those people are "Now" Americans and probably have all those poor qualities mentioned above. America is not just corn fed Nebraska white boys anymore.

No of course not.  If it is OK to have a thread about Thai stereotypes it is OK to have a thread about American stereotypes.  I know some groups are sacrosanct (gays and Brits) but I thought Americans were held at about the same low level of esteem so they would be OK for comparison.

Actually my brilliant and witty post today was about Note 7's exploding.  Ya I'm still cracking up over that one.  This thread is about a serious problem in Thailand both for Thais and Farangs it is called xenophobia and both groups display it with the same disastrous results using xenophobia's main tool - stereotyping.

You're confusing your stereotypes, Brits have crooked teeth, it's the French that smell.
