People of what countries are shy? (country, place, German, Germans)

[Beaver of the East]

I have heard that German men are shy. Are they really? I have heard the same about Swedes, Czechs and a few more countries.

1. Are people from said countries really shy?

2. Which countries have the shyest peoples in the world?(including those countries I didn't list)

P.s ofc not every one form those countries are shy, but stereotypes are not formed out of thin air, just like that, you know.

Also, no offence is intended.

Greetings from Pakistan!

Thanks for the reply!

Are Germans and Austrians not shy?

Edit: I've also read/heard that people from Iceland are shy.

Kind of.

Icelanders are shy, but they are also maniacs.

Would you place Germans above Scandinavians when it comes to shyness?

Also how are Icelanders maniacs? (I have heard about Russians being crazy, no offence to any Russian and all, but never about Icelanders).

I don't consider the people from Nordic countries shy it seems they are quite comfortable with nudity. I guess it depends how one defines shy. I have always thought of the people from the countries you listed as introverted but not shy.

No, Germans are less shy than Scandinavians.

Icelanders are maniacs because they are a weird isolated island nation with terrible weather. But nice people.

Nordics have a big thick ice to break before you become friends with us, but after that all bets are off.

To be clear, by "shy" I meant shy like kids. People in my country who are like that often get diagnosed with Social anxiety disorder or even Aspergers syndrome and are very rare.....if that all makes any sense.

I am a shy person myself, which is quite rare here. Most Pakistani men are actually quite the opposite. They are outgoing, chatty, flirtatious, brave.....basically they are what men are supposed to be like, unlike me lol.
