That's my take.

There really needs to be a new vocabularly that has the same meaning as racist and bigot, but relates to 'hatred on a person's nationality'....

OP just made a poll about is the "American accent" annoying. I guess I was right. Why do the new members always make polls and topics like these?

"American" and "Australian" are nationalities, not ethnicities.

Plus, there are multitudes of cultures within those large regions of 360 million americans, 730 million europeans, and a billion east asians.

I'm over here in Asia, and the Koreans are really nothing like the Thai. The Indonesians are nothing like the Chinese, etc.

In the U.S., people in Boston are nothing like they are in North Carolina who are nothing like they are in Seattle who are nothing like the people in Albuquerque.

In Europe, Albanians are nothing like Swedish who are nothing like French.

So, sure I'd love a Hawaiian or Oregonian or French or Japanese...but I might not be too crazy about a Arkansan or a Vietnamese or Swiss or Albanian or something...and those are only examples.

But, honestly, I could really care less where a person is from...it's a matter of other things entirely...and origin has little factor other than novelty perhaps.

I fell in love with a Brit, but it wasn't because she was British that made her desirable. It was the fact that her personality happened to be compatible with mine. If she was American, I'd have still gone with her. That's my opinion. I don't do this "nationality A is better than nationality B" stuff
