I never said they didn't have gorgeous women - just difficult to deal with.
"Difficult to deal with" - with a little more effort, your phrasing could be tweaked to say what you mean and not sound quite as…insulting. Instead, might I suggest "cultures with customs too different than my own."
No. This is the GB. Lighten up Frances.
Edit: just reread after a couple hours of sleep. I posted earlier after being called in to help put a kid back together after a road rage accident. And these scumbags who caused it were full white Americans.
I said those people from those countries were difficult and it's not because their culture is too different from my own. Some people from my "own culture" I find very difficult. I've performed surgery in over 50 countries and helped expand the knowledge of surgeons (and much of it as a volunteer). Put our own young men back together after IEDs from scumbags using forms of warfare that I find chicken***** Worked in places from Africa to SE Asia to the Middle East. Worked on a young girl in one of those three countries I listed as "difficult" who had been gang raped and beaten within an inch of her life. And even the local doctors didn't seem to think anything was wrong with it as women to them aren't even seen as fully human and it's to them the girl's fault for being where she was.
So, excuse me for not wanting a DEI, socially sensitive lecture from some kid. I post on the GB so I can laugh a bit as I get to see the worst part of life sometimes but also see the strength and resilience of humans even under the worst of conditions. So, instead, might I suggest, get out a bit more and get more experience with where people are coming from and the subtleties of language and don't be a know it all until you're at least 40 (better yet, never)
