Oh,going this way.... Chopin was polish and Maria Sk³odowska Curie was polish! A lot of people think that they was french...
Well Chopin did spend a lot of time in france, but I think the number of Mazurkas he wrote are a bit of a giveaway! Haven't actually heard of Maria Sk³odowska Curie by that name, only by the name Marie Curie, so I suppose it's natural that people assume she was french.
Visa mi culo is absolutely NOT Italian. and please rememebr that 80% of Italian immigrants were poor, unedicated people, who could normally speak only the local dialect (which an avarage Italian from another region couldn't get to understand).
Italian Stereotypes really piss me off.. Many times a lot of peoples ask me if if I'm a "mafioso". And, what really piss me off is that Hollywood movie can distort the truth, rapresenting many times Mafia as a good thing!
I have amused myself to read your participations The stereotypes exist from always. I task that does not have to take offense itself. I smiley when the people say the italian stereotypes.
