Culture difference
In class we learned that different countries have different cultures. And a lot of people don't know what the other cultures mean. For example I haven't been to Poland for a long time. When I went their, everything seems very diiferent than I am usually used to. For example, the speed limit is twice the speed, than in America. Also everybody knows each other in Poland They are more friendly with each other. And in America everybody is in such a rush that they never have time to stop and talk to each other. Or that they dont know each other so they won't talk to them.

I agree that Americans don't like to converse with each other. I like your comparison to Poland
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting that in Poland people seem more friendly. I think it is probably because Americans are always on the go and always looking for the next best thing, sort of in a way of being selfish.
ReplyDeleteThats true americans aren't as friendly
ReplyDeleteNow this is a good example of applying the lesson to something from your own life, but you don't explain the sociology very well. I think you are talking about norms such as mores. Be sure to do both in your posts - explain the soc and apply to your life.
