Are you from the south, Charlie? Just curious because I live in Florida. I'm also originally from Florida but I've moved into the deep south of Mississippi.

My Sicilian half: Phew, ooh boy!! Seems like I'm a fat, hot-tempered, pizza-eating, unforgiving mafioso with black hair and an olive complexion. You'll usually see me with a suit and fedora . My "American mix" half (northern/central Euro mix): Irish are drunks, Germans are warlike Nazis who eat saurkraut and drink beer, English are stiff and proper, the French are rude and snobby, and N. Italians are loud and arrogant.

woah thas alot of stereotypes ... on u hahahah.. LOL yeah that's true, but really, the Sicilian stereotypes are the ones most likely to be pinned on me as that's my main ethnicity in every way, from the percentage of my ancestry to my surname to my looks ;D. That's really what I see myself as.

Oh man, I know to which one she's referring. It's the stereotype that Mexicans are lazy. The sombrero thing is also tied in because if you watch Speedy Gonzalez cartoons heh, all of them wear sombreros.

The most popular stereotype about latvians is that they are the same as russians. The most popular stereotype about khanty is that they are the same as nenets.

Americans...the same as said by various people above.
Americans from the South: confederate racist rednecks.(for some people it's true)
Germans...Nazis. I like what Buddy said. British...imperialists. French...evil people with mustaches and berets. Scots...kilt wearing Brigadoon folk.

guys try to name some good stereotypes too.. Greeks are social, sexy, and show excessive hospitality to their guests. Americans are brave, get the job done, and don't take any crap off anybody.
