himmel:
the stereotypes exist from emperical evidence and precedent. almost ALL stereotypes arise from these two things; also from xenophobia and ignorance :o
i don't really mind them, as long as the people saying them use it in a general sense and not an absolute one.
p.s.
germans, on the whole, DO have a dark sense of humour, so what?
most germans ARE racist to some degree, not necessarily against anyone else, but racist FOR germans.
a good example of that is the child naming laws. or not being allowed to wear burkhas in school. and now even ethnic germans not being allowed to attain proper citizenship outside of a small # each year.
(ps sup laura how is college)
