Stereotypes about China

STEREOTYPES ABOUT CHINA

“Chinese religions are confusing and extremist”

“The Chinese eat animals and strange things”

“The clothing from china is of poor quality”

“Chinese women are unattractive”

On the subject of stereotypes, one of the countries most misplaced is China. What is known of China is very little due to the remoteness of this Asian country with our continent. This is why my views on Chinese culture are based on what other people have said. For example, when talking about food, I thought that all Chinese people eat animals like dogs, cats or rats. This happened when we heard about cases of people who saw strange things in food bought in Chinese restaurants. Another example is religion, when watching movies and news he believed that the Chinese had extremist beliefs. On the other hand I thought that Chinese women had little appeal, because on television I saw them with large clothes and dull eyes. Finally, according to the opinion of my parents and some relatives, I thought that the materials and technological devices coming from China were of poor quality.
