I had a feeling like that earlier, but my views are changing gradually :)

I don't believe it is hard to trust men in general. You probaly have experience with untrustworthy men. Don't let your judgment of a few men include all men.

I do think that it really 'is' a girl thing, although men can be bad too.\nIt is a betrayal of trust. Some woman do keep confidences, though.  I agree that it is a very ugly part of their (our) nature. Often when a friendship is over they have no morals about devulging all your personal details. It is sick, selfish and spiteful.\n\nI am female but I have given up on having close female friends anymore. People in general cannot be trusted in this way. I know how negative that sounds but it is the way things are.\n\nIf you meet any people who do not act this way, let me know, OK? I'd like to know them too.

Who says a woman cant? Some have the fear that she would run it with emotions and thoughtfulness rather than who could win and who can be in control.oddly, i believe most of those who think that,are men.Actually,i think a woman would get this country in order.Have you ever thought that that may just be what this country needs? some thoughtfulness and emotions even if it politics.Doesnt mean people shouldnt actually have feelings and care about the american people.Not just see them as "little"people or people who are below them in the system.

Yes,  We as Americans should be very concerned about world opinion.  My girlfriend went on a vacation to Australia not long after we met.  She noticed a little hostility from some of the people from other countries that were in their group.  These ultra conservative "cowboy" extremest are giving us a very bad image around the world.  I stumbled across a website for a German band .........  I think it was Ram-stein but I'm not sure.  I was shocked and appalled at all the anti U.S. statements. \n      I once got into a discussion at a bar with a girl from Czechoslovakia she told me that Americans in general were uninformed and often deceived by our media.   We are the most powerful country in the world right now our problems are the worlds problems and visa verse.  We as Americans have a responsibility to know whats going on in the world (not just what FOX news tells us) and act accordingly.

That whole idea where men are the main cheaters is all wrong. I do believe that men, and women both have the same disposition to strayed. But, women are just better in hiding, and lying.

most americans like everyone else in the world have the tendency to stereotype and judge without enough information, sure there are those with good hearts and working brains, but sadly they are most of the time overshadowed by ignorant and arogant ones, i don't believe in communism, but this doesn't mean i have to fight everyone else with different belief than mine, and doesn't necessarily mean i'm right and they are wrong in the 1st place !! God when will this world grow up a little!

Yes. I completely agree. I am from Asia and women are not so...you know what. And one of my friends said that American women dress badly and I corrected her and I told her that she was stereotyping.

I would not say most but some and they are entitled to their opinion.I really don't care who likes or dislikes the Americans.That is their problem if they don't like us.Not ours.

It seems to happen more and more. Women are lacking self respect and any type of morals. I agree with you, and I would never venture onto another womans territory. Why would you even want a man that you know is cheating? I think these women actually think that they are better than the woman he is in the relationship with and think they are taking him away. Which we all know, seldom happens. Welcome to the 20th century, where morals and respect no longer exist. Sad.

Honestly, there is no way to sugar coat this...Negatively. With the help of our media and military actually.  While the military isn't at fault, their prescence upsets the locals.  The media doesn't help either because they bribe the locals into doing things they normally wouldn't like throw rocks at the Anchor for dramatic affect.  It helps their ratings.  Whenever I travel I met wonderful people from other cultures and I learn that what we know as Americans isn't so true anymore.  It is sad but I don't like for other cultures to view me as a bully for being an American.  I suppose that it goes both ways.  Unfortunate really.

I hear you.   And they shield themselves by saying that "All men cheat" and "All mean are pigs"...because if they realized that a good number of us have wonderful, respectful, loving partners/spouses, they'd realize that maybe something is wrong with them or their low expectations.\n\nI hear women say "It's fine by me if he goes to the stripclub" - and they really think they are fine with it.  But when they hear that your husband/partner doesn't go and that they respect and care for you, you can see in their eyes that they would love to have the same thing.   I guess they are scared of having high expectations...expect low and get low.\n\nI am thankful for my husband and his character.

I have no problem with most of America.  There are some stereotypes...and some of them may be true.  \n\n1.  Centric (not knowing much about the world outside USA)\n2.  Boasters (biggest everything)\n3.  Bullies (current foreign policy)\n4.  Wasters/not environmentally friendly (not wanting to support biofuel production to its max...see Bush's comments on the use of corn for biodiesel)\n\nHaving said that, there are plenty, more than plenty of Americans who are concerned and friendly and humble and just like everyone else.  Unfortunately, we don't hear much from them, as the newscasts prefer stories that are shocking and awful.  So the world's view of the typical American is probably skewed.

I sincerely doubt it with all the e-mail scams comeing from there and South Africa. I get the impression they think Americans are stupid. They  seem to forget there is Interpol, International police.\nI have to give them credit though, some of the stuff I get sure looks real.
