I've just been reading an article about "Fat-Free and Happy" and it talks about clichés and cultures of America and Europe. I thought you might be interested because there are so many clichés of different states.
Basically what it says is that America has a different culture than Europe, so there are many different clichés, too. It also says that it's not true that America has no cultere, as many say. For example many things are bigger than in Europe, the glasses of Coca Cola or they eat more ice cream than us. The author also says that America is more tolerant than Europe. If you go to America you see much more gays and lesbians than in Europe.
I think that everyone should make their own image of a country and you should be careful with clichés. What do you think about clichés and culture of different countries? Write it in the comments.
Yours,
