The whole sincerity part is an illusion. To Brits Americans can seem sincere, but Americans can see right through it to the bs because we grew up with it. Also, Americans have a lot of sarcasm, but we try to avoid being sarcastic around people we just met or when we are trying to be polite, especially with foreigners. At least that's how it is with me.

I encourage my boys to say hi when then meet new people, shake hands (pre-Covid), and have the confidence to not shy away from new experiences. There are plenty of painfully shy people in America, so not everyone is friendly and chipper. But a lot of us are!

The North understandably resents the South, especially Londoners because they get a lot less funding. Way more poverty up North (in general). As a result, a lot of people from less fortunate/working class "postal codes" have to show a sense of pride in where they live so that they're not looked down upon.

I'll never forget having fish and chips in a crowded little restaurant in London when an older British couple picked up their food at the counter and were looking around trying to find a vacant table. There were only two at our table, so I motioned with a flourish of my arm that they should sit down at our table. When they did sit across from us, the lady said, "You have to be Americans!" When I asked how she knew since we hadn't spoken a word yet, she replied that no British people would smile at strangers and invite them to sit down at their table. And I have found that this is true of most of the other Northern European countries I've visited.

The Southern Plantations were mostly established by the "spare heir" to the British upper class. The eldest son inherited everything under British Law, and for a few thousand pounds could send his brother(s) off to America. Southern accents have frequently been compared to simply a slowed down English accent. Some of the phrases are actually out of both rich and poor British English. Vivian actually spoke a bit too fast for the part (rapid delivery rather than a more measured approached) but her smile and regal approach made up for it. Remember too that the 2nd sons were also from Scottish and Irish landowners (her "father" telling her to keep the land (Tara as in the hill of the Irish Kings) no matter what).

So, I feel somewhat confident in saying that Americans can comfortably strike up conversations with strangers because there is literally no class, status, wealth and education communication barriers in day-to-day life in America. While the concepts of class and privilege and monarchy have been strongly entrenched in British culture since the Roman era, they have still not gotten much traction in the USA.

As an American I am confused about the myth of British people being shy. According to my history classes, the British had an empire that stretched around the world. There was a saying, “ the sun never sets on the British empire”. How can a nation build a worldwide empire while being afraid to talk to strangers ? ( Stay healthy and safe )

I did realize something about myself and how I grew up though. I really settled into the English culture. It was a relief to me that I didnt always have to be this outgoing person always starting conversation and having control over everything. I love, love, loved England.

Being American I was brought up to be polite to strangers, especially if I'm from another country. I was brought up to treat others how I would like to be treated, so I am naturally friendly but not too forward. I don't like to pry into anyone's life, but I give a smile and nod to them. If they don't respond that is ok. Class is not a problem here. We speak to everyone. I'm a housekeeper and I've been mistaken for working in some kind of a business, such as a bank. They are surprised when they realized I'm a housekeeper in a nursing home. They tell me I don't "act like one". I asked them what a housekeeper is supposed to act like. They couldn't answer, except to say that it was how "I carried myself". Despite my job I have confidence. I work in an important job in a facility where it's badly needed and I'm not ashamed of it. It's sad that in England it's all about class. Why can't everyone just speak to everyone equally???? They could all learn from each other despite the class distinction.

I’m an American expat. Maybe because I live in Europe, I can’t relate to some of the things you mention about my countrymen. I will say that I never interpreted people from the UK as being shy just because they didn’t act in a similar manner when it comes to social greetings. I assumed that you have a similar moral conduct to how my mom’s Eastern/Central European family acts. This idea of the society’s decorum rules centered around genuineness and only interacting with a hi ,how are you, and a smile with those you know and genuinely feel comfortable with. I have visited the UK before, and I really appreciated that I wasn’t automatically labeled as shy for greeting people with soft eyes and a calm inside voice 😅

I’ve lived in Central Virginia as well), North Carolina, and now Indiana. Everywhere I’ve lived... north, south, east, west, Midwest... it’s definitely a smaller town thing too. Once you’re outside of a metropolitan area, people are much friendlier. There’s more sincerity (I’m generalizing!), more active listening & genuine interest, more eye contact, even more physical contact (touching someone’s arm while in conversation, handshakes are more firm and longer, pats on the shoulder or back, even hugs). That generally didn’t happen in the D.C. area, Chicago, Miami, Tampa, L.A., New York... There’s a lot more friendliness in southern cities, but people are definitely, by degrees, more open and friendlier the further you get from a large metro area! Whatever state you put me in, please let it be an area of fewer than 100,000 people! Growing up in a metro area of 5 to 6 million people sucked! Rudeness and “me first” everywhere.

Yup! Americans talk all the time. Extroversion is highly valued. Having lots of acquaintances, who we call friends, is the norm for many Americans - and then on the other hand, it’s common to have only a few very close friends, “best friends”.

In the 1920s there was something called the “Harlem Renaissance” in New York, where the black communities were a center for entertainment and music and their cultures exploded among everyone.

American confidence comes from a few things, the revolutionary war, being a world superpower, being a free people and being able to own arms (the 2nd amendment), our constitution, and believing we can accomplish anything.

About music. I just wanted to say that America may have introduced modern music styles to the UK, but the music English bands and artists have contributed to the world in response is absolutely fantastic! I grew up in the 70s here in the US and almost all of my favorite bands were Brittish starting with the Beatles.

Rock and roll is a mix of black music (blues, R&B etc) and white music (country, rockabilly, etc). Chuck Berry realized that for crossover appeal, he needed to incorporate white styles of music into his repertoire. His hit “Maybelline” was a reworking of an old country tune called “Ida Red”. This crossover appeal is what propelled him to fame. Elvis had crossover appeal as well, as well as sex appeal.

Hello Marty. Ok, maybe you are correct that Brits invented shade. Let’s explore what shade I found in 2 of Shakespeare’s plays: 1) Ghost King Hamlet threw shade at Claudius like “Yo, Guess who killed my ass?” 2) I believe when Juliet’s nurse burst into Juliet’s room to tell her that Mercutio was killed, she could have told Juliet straight away, but the nurse was being a little shady by not getting straight to the point. There is shade in all of the plays, but let’s talk about Shakespeare. At age 18 William started off doing shady stuff...Ann Hathaway was pregnant months before they were married. In America, we call that a shotgun wedding. (That was my version of shade) 😘

Most big Rock Stars, like Elvis, were getting their styles and music from the USA black people at the time. The black people's music were not being played on the radio back then, so young, white, rebellious music players and singers, were playing black people's because it was more fun and because it was taboo at the time.

Yup, so just thank our wonderful african americans who we enslaved and then proceeded to steal music from and pretty much any other non-white musician. Plus many other thing.. I wish people would do more shows and books about white americans who stole ideas and things from other people and things. Like: "How History Really Happened". I would watch those obsessively! Music is like my #1 in life so I'm truly thankful that we have so many cultures here even if the circumstances for which they came here/how they were treated when they arrived was an absolute atrocity. And I hope we will someday (at least the majority of us) treat other cultures and people with respect and acceptance and truly show our appreciation for what they add to all our lives.
