Brazilian Stereotypes

                                                                                            Brazilian Stereotypes.



As A Brazlian I could not let this topic out from my blog. There are many sterrotypes created trough time that damage Brazil’s international image...
..... but   for the Love of God ( I DO NOT SPEAK SPANISH, I SPEAK PORTUGUESE).
 Maybe you were taught wrong about Brazil’s culture in school,  or you’re too lazy to research about the Fifth largest country in the world . ( no heart feelings, please) That is why I AM here for help you ( J);
First of all , I Will show you the most  Brazilian stereotypes aroud thr WORLD .. some are extremely IGNORANTS,EXAGGERATES others can be true :

According to us (brazilians) people just think about CARNIVAL, SAMBA & FOOTBALL. They think our WOMEN are all DARK-SKINNED, BEAUTIFUL, SEXY, EASY to get in bed, with BIG BUTTS and walk around NAKED in public. Brazilians eat FRUIT DIRECTLY FROM THE TREES, play SOCCER all day long on dirt fields while listening to SAMBA, drinking CAIPIRINHAS and playing with their PET MONKEYS. All Their politicians are CORRUPT, their streets are all DANGEROUS, their idols are PELÉ & RONALDINHO, and they speak SPANISH as their native tongue. And of course, BUENOS AIRES is the capital of Brazil.


all stereotypes that you read above are totaly Just a side ( negative ), Fo not forget the capital of Brazil is Brasilia , not São Paulo even Rio de Janeiro.
Once I was asked IF I had sure about which country I was Born, Just because I Said that I did not lived in RIO DE JANEIRO and I did not know how to DANCE SAMBA. :(
Now is the Time I will  show you the other side ( positive one) and particullary true .
(-Brazilian are the most Friendlly people in the World, The Amazon Rain Forest is The Lug of the World, Brazil is on top of Fotoball (soccer). Brazilian know how to party in Carnaval, The world is amazed by cultural expression like SAMBA and Capoeira. brazil is known for its INCREDIBLE MUSIC, DELICIOUS FOOD, including mouth-watering FRUITS, as well as world-renowned BARBECUES and FEIJOADA.  Brazilian WOMEN are known to be among the SWEETEST, MOST BEAUTIFUL & SENSUAL WOMEN in the world.)
 To finish : you must check out this video, draw your own conclusions.

‘’ Do not Talk to Strangers’’

I bet That you already heard or Said that quote.
''The Don’t Talk to Strangers' campaign taught generations of children to fear strangers .
But the main fact that made I decided to write this post is that I want  to go further about it, I want to know what make  someone to be a stranger in the wi-fi generation.
Strangers are people that you never had physical contact, never spoken , do not live near to you, she or He is unknown for you.
What about receive a friend request in facebook/skype or any social network?
Who sent the request fill out all the characteristics Said above, are you going break the ‘’ do not speak to strangers’’ rule ? or will you delet the request for not having any mutual friend?


I have been thinking about it for one while, because I met many people through internet and in the beginning almost all of them were unknown for me.

I spend hours in skype speaking with a friend Who a few months ago, I did not knew about his existence.  The days passed by and we found a lot of common interests, like study English as second language, watch movies,series,music and friendly personality.
I warn you is not every Day that you can have the lucky that I had for finding such as great ‘’hermano’’ as I did.

You have to be very carefull about adding and sharing personal information with new people. There are many creppy people in the other computer’s screen, 
old ones faking being youngs, pedophile, crazy murderer and go on.
 In addition internet can change the way we socialize, in one hand can give to you self-confidence,courange.
in on the other hand has the Power to make you feel more lonely, bring more difficuties to you when you are trying to make friend and personal interactions.
Thanks for Reading...... It's my first post.. 
I hope learn more and write more.
see you soon.
