One stereotype with white people that I think is true that they are rude as fuck, and very un-approachable. I am white, and when I went to the Philippines I could talk to ANYONE and ask directions, where the store is, whatever. I know I cannot approach everyone here because they would not want to talk to me because they are to self centered to help, or they would think that I want to fight. I am generalizing because there are people that would help, but you don't get that feeling.

Also.... I am in my room and wearing my shoes
That's people in Vancouver in general. If you travel to the east coast, you will find people are way more approachable than here.

I'm pretty sure every white person in Vancouver know's what it is.. But, out here them white folks have no idea.
White, round these parts, don't know.

I've never experienced this, then again, I am white

PS: I never wear shoes inside. Who the fuck wants to get their house dirty?!

I have to disagree. Random people in Toronto are a lot easier to talk to/get along with than in Vancouver. Clubbing in TO is a lot friendlier too

DT Toronto is totally different from DT Vancouver. This is in my experiences at least.

Yes, living on the West Coast, it's definitely weird when you go to the east coast and have random people start talking to you about random things. But that's what I find cool about it, they are way more sociable over there. In the GVRD, everyone either doesn't look at you, or they try to stare you down and start shit. Everyone is either intimidated or tries to intimidate.

I lived in Austria for 6 months and found a similarity yet difference in white fashion.

In Europe its trendy to wear American fashion, whereas in North America its trendy to wear European fashion. What nobody knows is its all the same.

If it's all the same how can you tell the difference?

White people can travel back in time to any era and be welcomed with open arms. Other races...not so much.

I don't see much crying.. TBH most of these stereotypes are pretty fail

Shoes in the house? Yeah on 80's sitcoms maybe. Socks with sandals? Never saw an asian do that before!

It seems like CBCs are really good at being racist, but only against other asians
