Do Europeans feel superior than Latin-Americans?
Do Europeans feel superior than Latin-Americans?
I'm from Argentina and was an exchange student in Denmark some years ago. Sometimes the people asked me things that sounded as if I lived in the jungle or something like that. In Latin America people tends to think that Europe is a superior or a better place, a higher culture. Do Europeans think that too?

Europeans feel superior to everyone so dont feel bad
2 :
I would have to say that some people no matter where they live and what their culture is like will feel Superior to other people, places and culture and some people admire their own culture along with others cultures and places and people.
3 :
As a whole they prpbably don't feel superior but are ill-educated about what life is like in different countries. it's no different really than those who believe,for instance, that all people in Canada live in igloos/log cabins and have 6 months of winter,or that it rains every single day in England.
4 :
well...don't Argetinians feel superior to the rest of latin America because they have "european blood". That was certaintly the impression I got when I was there. I think you answered your own question. On the whole i'd say Europeans are just ignorant about Latin America just as most of the world is ignorant about the rest of the world.
5 :
in terms of women, latin girls are far superior than european and i am american.

How is Foreign Racism?
How is Foreign Racism?
I am a second year college student, and this coming spring I'll be switching my major to international studies with a minor in German (took it for 3 years in high school). My question is: how are race relations in Germany or other German speaking nations, and if they are bad, are they better in places like Canada, France, Argentina, Spain, or any other French or Spanish speaking countries.

Lol u dont have to worry about racism in germany all guys there try to act like thugs from hip hop video i was in germany for 3 weeks for vacation
2 :
Germany is not racist (sure, there are racist people everywhere) but for the most part, no one cares. Especially in the bigger cities. There's a lot of black and mixed people there. You'd probably find more racism in Canada. France is pretty open and so is Spain. I don't know about Argentina.
3 :
In France they push muslims around with bulldozers. In England they execute latinos then say "Sorry, we thought he was an Arab," like that makes it better. In Argentina; well did you know that Germans went down there by the thousands during the war to start the Fourth Reich? Canada thinks they're cool but they really hate Jamaicans. And they say things like "Toronto needs an ethnic cleansing." Yes I am exaggerating. Mostly....
4 :
england is good and germany is good. france is good italy is good. they got huge black presence there. but just like any other human being black or white..make sure you dont hang around carelessly at night and if you do make sure you are rolling deep

What would be a good gift for a female teacher?
What would be a good gift for a female teacher?
So she is my japanese language teacher, 27 y.o. woman... I'm 18 and she always helps me through... she is different with me when compared with the other students, she stays after class so i can take the international exam at the end of the year... and is always very kind to me... so i want to give her something (the teacher's day is soon i think, and if not something for the end of the year...) Nothing too personal, nothing too impersonal... I have discarded some things like flowers, chocolate, or certificates... i was thinking in a book, could you recomend one? any other thing? btw i live in argentina so there are some things that you can't get here like those certificates... Please? She is descendent of japanese but born and grown here so she's argentinian... that's why i prefer to avoid something like japanese/argentinan books of stuff... And you know here the society is pretty similar to the usa's so please think of it like a present for a foreign language teacher of your country because it won't make a big difference

An apple - no, not the electronic kind.
2 :
Hmmm - see if you can find out what her outside interests are, and get her something inexpensive that has to do with them.

A nice candle usually does the trick. And a card saying thank you.
4 :
metallic pen,
5 :
A book called, chicken soup for a teachers soul, is a nice gift. Also, a note from you with a sincere message of thanks would be appreciated.,
6 :
Give her a silver apple or bell.
7 :
i think, the best gift for a female teacher is just a fresh, red rose..... females are usually atractted in flowers........
8 :
Something that smells good...not a soap or perfume, as these are personal, but perhaps a couple of nice candles or some potpourri. Vanilla is a good scent, since most people like it. A nice pen is also a thoughtful gift for a teacher. I agree with the above, definitely include a note mentioning how much you appreciate her kindness and dedication.
9 :
A book is a great idea. I second the recommendation of "shoptheflower". The Chicken Soup line is great, and the Teacher one is perfect to give for a teacher. Is she Japanese? If not, perhaps a book on the Japanese culture that you've found interesting? If she is, maybe a book on Argentian culture? A nice coffee-table book would be nice, regardless. If you can remember any outside interests she's mentioned, see if you can find a book on that topic. Or a book on a topic you're interested in, with the idea that you want to share part of you with her. As a former teacher, some of the things I really appreciated from students, were school supplies. Things that were out of the ordinary and/or expensive (meaning things I wouldn't buy for myself), but were things I could use in the classroom. Granted, I taught elementary school, so things like unique rubber stamps or craft supplies probably wouldn't be relevant to your situation. But, if the idea appeals to you, watch the kinds of materials she regularly uses and consider finding an upgraded version. I don't really know what she uses, but as an example, if she uses a pen to write with get her a nice pen set. If she uses file folders, consider a nice file box. That kind of thing... One last idea, in case nothing mentioned so far is interesting to you, is a simple paper weight. This could be anything that sits on her desk, from a glass apple to a pewter statue. Again, look for something relevant, such as something she's mentioned she's interested in, something from her culture or your culture. This would just be an item she could keep on her desk as a bit of decoration. Teachers like those kinds of things (well, I did anyway). :-) If you include a card with your gift, expressing your sincere gratitude for the extra help she has given you, it really doesn't matter what you give her. Letting her know that she's made a difference in your life is all the gift a good teacher wants. ~Kyanna
10 :
what does she like to do? If she likes to read, give her a nice book.. If she likes to write, give her a notebook, not just an ordinary notebook though.. Just make sure that what you give her is something she could use..
11 :
A good book is always a good gift for a good person. Try getting information about the book "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coehlo. It describes about the journey of a young man who triumphs with the help of people he met along the way. It's a good read.
12 :
When I was an ESL teacher, I got things such as a journal - a beautifully bound book with blank pages, but decorations on them - you can get those for $5 and up; a beautiful decorative old-fashioned fan; a handmade quilt; a plant (not flowers); a pin to wear on my suit... -- whatever you choose, she'll appreciate the gesture. I think the journal is really appropriate.
13 :
Stationary or a nice pen would be a good gift for a teacher. A Japanese teacher might especially like a Calligraphy set, or you could do a calligraphy of her name in katakana on some really lovely paper and put it in a nice frame.
