You are slightly miss guided.  Americans love the Brits.  We love Monty Python, the Beatles, the Young Ones, John Cleese, Fish & Chips, mmmm Bass Ale and many other things native to England.  We share the same enthusaism to get drunk before major "football" & "futbol" games.  We are die hard fanatics about supporting our football teams.  We have even started to become better at futbol by having english preimere players plyaing for the major league soccer teams.  American women are still intrigued by the Royal Family.  We love that Dianna became Princess Di.  We love to hear your accent and as a previous answer stated - the accent does make you more attractive and intelligent.  We love how an ice cream truck is called Mr. Whippy, an elevator called a lift, things like that.  We love that we think the same way and are not afraid to stand up to dictators, tyrants, murders, and morally do the right thing.  We share the same contept for the lame French.  We love Darts.  I could go on but you get the point.\n\nAs far as bad teeth and not washing - that is definatley more directed at the French rather than Brits, in my humble opinion.\n\nHave a great day!!

Bit of a harsh generalisation isn't it?  I'm English and I don't hate American's.  They've never done anything to me, I've been there twice and enjoyed it, and I'm not the sort of person to hate a country because of the politics that go with it.

Hi, I am an Englishman and never visited the States. I suppose like many people I would have to say that I have had mixed feelings about the USA. Most of the information regarding world events etc comes via the media and does not I think always give the most unbiased opinion. Not just in political events. We all see popular shows like Oprah and this without doubt has a profoundly negative effect. We see in the main what can only be described as weirdos and have to wonder if these strange selfish people are indicative of the country as a whole.\nHigh consumers, irresponsible ecological attitude and a me, me, me mind set.\nAll sounds horrible doesn't it? Thankfully there is the Internet where over the past couple of years I have made some excellent friends who have illustrated that there is a far more caring and unselfish, generous aspect to many of the citizens of the US than I previously thought. \nMy country and yours have been strong allies both economically and in time of conflict and shared a whole lot together. I personally hope that this will always be the case.\nWho knows what may happen in Iraq, North Korea and the rest of the world. But I believe that in the main (although always influenced by oil) The forces currently in Iraq are trying extremely hard to bring about stability. If they were only allowed to do so, your country and mine could bring our troops home. The sooner the better.\nIn a nut shell I am pro American. OK?

I think it's very funny when people say that we owe America anything. I mean, we did help you against the English when you wanted to become independent. And we are happy that you helped us against Hitler.\n\nSome French people don't like Americans because they think they ALL are stupid. I think those French persons are really stupid. \n\nBut to answer your question, some Americans don't like the French because our government decided NOT to go and fight in Iraq. In that case, Americans should hate pretty much the whole world since the majority of people in the world disapproved of their government getting involved in that conflict. No, wait. Actually, a lot of Americans should also hate Americans because a lot of them demonstrated against that war!\n\nPS: We do shave our armpits! I mean, only older women (like in their 60s) don't. Actually, I think they do, now! Actually, we shave everything! I don't have a single body hair (except my eyebrows, of course). We also bathe everyday, some even do it twice a day! We also know what a deodorant is (actually, I knew one girl who stank and, in the bus that took us to school, we were all wondering if we should ask her if she knew what a deodorant was).\n\nAs for tourists... Well, if you go to Paris, just know that a lot of French people don't like Parisians because they are said to be arrogant. \nI agree that French people are not really helpful. But they do the same with French people, so don't take it personally. \nAlso, try to keep in mind that a lot of French people can't speak English. Actually, it's getting better but it's still unusual. So, if you can't speak French, knowing that the French are not really patient when it comes down to giving information, don't be surprised if they don't give a shit about you.\nI'm French and find this EXTREMELY ANNOYING too! Once, I came back from England and had like 4 heavy baggages. NOBODY helped me! In England, in one hour, 6 persons helped me carry them! I also don't like the French for that! \nBut not everybody is like that: I'm very nice (and so are my friends) and always try to help, above all foreigners (even if we don't speak the same language) as I know it's a pain in the ass to be lost in a foreign country.\nTo our defense, I would just remind you that the French usually find you EXTREMELY loud, even if there are only 2 of you. So remember: everybody's got their fault!

Hey there fellow Brit, I am Scottish and am therefore supposed to hate the English more than any other nationality. But it's ok I don't! \nI am fairly new to yahoo answers but have also noticed that most users are american but that is probably because there are many more americans than british. \nI really noticed this when i wanted to see who had been asking questions about big brother over the last few days and could only find people talking about an 'all stars' house. From what I gather- previous bb stars are going in to a house together across the pond. \nGood luck finding more Brits!\n:)

Both equally inferior ...Americans do stupid things and the British stupidly go along with it.

I completely agree with you. There is entirely too much anti-Americanism. Being a Canuck myself, I have nothing but respect for the American people. Now, having said that, here comes the reason for the US bashing that is happening all around the world.\n1. America has become the police of the world, and many people would choose their own bad governments rather than a just and benevolent foreign government.\n2. That just and benevolent government mentioned above is strangely missing from your country. I always found the US Constitution to be a thing of genuine beauty. Does it not say that you are responsible to throw off such governments that detract from the rights of the people?\n3. American Foreign Policy, for the protection of American business interests, not the mutual betterment of all nations.\n4. The attitude that Americans have about their culture and country. The self proclaimed best country on earth, sounds arrogant, and nobody likes an arrogant person.\n5. The fear mongering being put forth by the American media machine. Hasn't anyone noticed that the hard won rights of the individual are disappearing in the name of security? I hope you enjoy living in your police states of the future.\nAs for a Third World War, where can we stand? In line with Bush's for or against policy? If that is my choice, then I must stand against. I now, always have and always will stand against tyranny and evil, even when that repression is claimed to be for my own safety. \nAs for wanting into the US, because you have greater freedoms than most, but not all.

I share a passion for correcting American's on here about the wars that THEY have "WON", it's never been about the fact that England doesn't even today appreciate all the American soldiers and airman, etc, that gave there lives for in the First World War a stupid cause, and in the Second World War a just one. It's the perception of the Wars that do my head in, your history and films show you as strong, brave, courageous, and out and out winners all by yourselves. We in Britain are shown in our history a more rounded version of events, we don't big up ourselves, we realise that without the distraction of the Eastern Front and the Russians, that even with the Americans help the allies wouldn't have gotten of the beaches, let alone to Berlin. \n\nJust do me and Zulu a favour and show some HUMILITY, if you don't know what it means look it up....

That's good to hear, enough countries hate us already and to be honest, i dont ever think to myself " who doesnt like America" i instead think "who does like American". We are really hated thanks to our government when really Americans themselves (most) are very nice family people.

Most of them don't hate America; they only loath the US foreign policy, which they believe is bullish and unfair.  So, don't generalize. Of course, there are still some who hate America no matter what but they are the exception (just like there are Americans who hate other countries or even the rest of the world, no matter what).

They have of course the Royal Air Force, the Royal Navy, army etc.   They essentially have similar counterparts to our military and intelligence services, but their military is smaller.  Comparatively to the US, an individual is less likely to be personally acquainted with a member of the military, this is simply to do percentages of military personnel to civilian and whilst I lived there, they did not seem to hold much respect for members of the military.  And just in case you didn't know, despite the fact that Tony Blair is on the same side currently with the US, we are not liked by most Brits.  I should state that they are despite this general dislike of Americans, still polite and generally helpful if you are visiting their country.

You've stumbled upon a dirty little secret.  Traditionally people like to say the states is racist and Canada welcoming (Canada never held slaves they say etc)  but Canada has a core of people who see themselves as the descendents of Empire Loyalists--some (not all I hope!) dont like any "new people" in the country --they think British is the real root of Canada (whereas in America the original settlers fought britain to become a country --canada was always the obedient child of Britain)--this leads some people to say you are more Canadian if you are of british (therefore Empire Loyalist) extraction.  Whereas in America --its like: you cannot say that (logically) because they fought to free themselves from the British --so how are you more american if you are from there?  you are more american because your granddaddy was one of the original rebels in the US war of independence? see.... in Canada you can say that. Of course its wrong.  Stay in Canada marry have children until ALL racists die out --thats how you do it my friend. Oh and there are people of british/empire loyalist group who are NOT racist--and they hate those who are.

I like your question, I think that the Europeans and the world for that matter hate the American because they see us as big bullies!  We are not bullies but since we are the world super military power we have our hands in all the worlds little quarrels (fights/wars) so we seem to always be involved in some type of world conflict or another.  Look at Iran that wants to remove Israel of the map of the earth....Iran's weapons can't reach us here in the US but the world little nations look at us to do something!  The United Nations is so corrupt that will have meetings in the most luxurious resorts to discuss what to do for years at taxpayers expense and all they keep talking about is where to have the next meting!
