Once I had a Professor, just because I did not listen to him in class, he went to stereotype all the Asian students in his class. Whenever other students asked him a question, he would be patient. But when it came to Asian students, he would always go "YOU NEED TO FOCUS". I still remember it to this day

Some professors are like that with White students also. They just decide they don't like some students for whatever reasons. Some professors are crazy.

There is a lot of anti East Asian and anti south-east Asian racism in france unfortunately (towards Vietnamese people, Chinese people etc), after all france did colonise and brutalise Vietnam (Indochina) so it’s not surprise the racism against Asians remains within french society in france

"Each individual is important." Yes. We use to call each person "citizen" and hope to be all treated as equals. The "customer is king" does not exist. If the customer is impolite. (S)He is the one making a crass and disrespectful mistake whether they pay or not. Politeness, "hello/goodbye/Mr./Mrs/ Please/Thank you", looking in the eye when you speak etc is for everyone.

It is mostly either awful or average and when it is great, it blows your mind off as uncommon it is 😂😂😂😂 There is a French word, you can look up regarding the arrogance of some French individuals, it is called 'chauvinisme', thing you don't experience much in Belgium or Switzerland.

Asians have always been very well accepted in France, they are polite, discreet people who rarely cause problems. They have their culture, we have ours, and they never try to impose it on us, any more than their religion. We respect each other, so we live on good terms. This is unfortunately not the case for all foreigners, some try to impose their way of life, their religion on us and this is not tolerated by the French. Asians NEVER do this.

In elitist minded America, it is all about how much you have achieved and how much money and material things you have. It is also about how attractive and fashionable you are especially when you are younger. America is an extremely competitive country. Everything is about speed and rush, rush, rush. You feel you can never move fast enough or catch up. Americans are often unfriendly, snobby, uncaring, cold, impatient, and rude. Some are mean. It is the way it is and you eventually get used to it. It is big city and upscale suburban culture. It is not racism.

Administration people are the same everywhere! You should see them in the US! They're rude, they think they are very important and most of the times they are ignorant. But my advice is do not confront them, let them believe what they want as long as you get what you need.

- 02:22 🏙️ Paris is very different from the rest of France; it's more comparable to other global cities like London or New York. - 03:06 💬 The French mindset values individual uniqueness, reflected in their social interactions and behaviors. - 04:23 🚶♂️ In France, social status isn't defined by wealth or achievements; discussing such topics is considered impolite. - 05:00 🕰️ Convenience services like food delivery are slower in France, reflecting the value placed on personal importance over customer service. - 05:37 🚫 Never compare a French person to someone else; they may take it as an offense due to their emphasis on individuality. - 06:43 🥐 French people generally appreciate other cultures but may have low tolerance for alterations to their own, such as modifying traditional foods. - 09:42 🤯 Some French people can be complicated, especially in administrative roles; politeness is crucial to avoid issues. - 11:54 🌏 Racism against Asians in France varies by city; in general, Asians are viewed positively, though curiosity may lead to being stared at.

It´s definitely not offensive to say that a person reminds you of someone else that you know and if this person took offence, then they have a problem! Maybe they also did not like that you found them to be similar to someone in the US. The French still have some hostility towards British and Americans and do not like to be compared with them. But again, this is not your problem and it is their problem. It´s not good to take oneself too seriously and the French need to get to grips with that. The French, and again generalizing, because ofcourse not all French people have the same mentality, but overall, they many of them are still not that open-minded and most of them have been trained to be quite conservative in their thinking from an early age. Nothing wrong with adapting the use of the croissant! It´s called innovation. French people also can make things very complicated on purpose and for no good reason and unfortunately they get away with this in many companies and organizations and this is highly unprofessional. This needs to change.
