I think maybe the English don't want to try something and look stupid, because they are a bit reserved.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The English like eccentrics. They just don't like them living next door.
The air of the English is down-to-earth. They care about details; there's a tradition, but there's also a counter-culture: the younger generation versus the older generation and so on. But then that's well blended into a happy balance and crystallised into common sense.
The trouble with most Englishwomen is that they will dress as if they had been a mouse in a previous incarnation they do not want to attract attention.
So what's really behind the 'English Only' Movement? Fear. Fear of being taken over and one day they will have to learn something different. Heaven forbid they would have to learn something new.
The English never smash in a face. They merely refrain from asking it to dinner.
The Welsh people have a talent for acting that one does not find in the English. The English lack heart.
There's a thing in the U.K., particularly in London, where it's kind of the idea of subculture and counterculture and the outside and the idea that it's great to be a freak, and the freak always wins. So I think English girls are a lot less scared of being the freak or looking like an idiot.
The conventionality of the English is something I find unattractive - the whole lack of joy in the physical.
Things they don't understand always cause a sensation among the English.
No one says the word 'quirky' much in England. I guess because people are more naturally eccentric.
