User blog:Hleb12/Serbian Stereotypes

Hello majstore, I'm Hleb12. Today, I'll be reacting to some Serbian Stereotypes cause why the hell not...

1.Everyone in Serbia plays tennis:

Novak Djokovic, Jelena Janovic and Monica Seles are all professional tennis stars, but there is this stereotype that everyone in Serbia plays tennis. Now let me tell you, there are a few people in Serbia who is considered a tennis plyer, if we all were tennis plyers, than there will be no match with other countries, there would be 7 million Serbian tennis players in the tennis grand slams. Personally, I tink this a stupid stereotype because, even though we are good at tennis, most of the time we don't even kow how to hold a rcket or hit a ball.

2.We are engineering geniuses:

Nikola Tesla is amongst one of the best inventors/engineer to ever exist, there is a theory that Nikola Tesla was an alien cause no one can hold that much intelligence. Back to the stereotype. There is a school for engineering school in Belgrade, but not everyone in Serbia is lucky to get to an engineering school, they'd probably end up being a Truck Driver.

3.Everyone in Serbia can drink alot:

We do have a large number of people who love to drink Rakija, there are also some people who can drink 12 bottles without getting drunk! But not all Serbians would drink beer

4.Serbians are Communist/Socialists/Royalist:

Just like in any country, the political inclinations of the population actually vary widely, including those who don't care about politics the much.

Last but not least...

5.Serbians are blood-thirsty ethnic cleansing maniacs:

We killed people in the Bosnian Massacre/War and the Kosovo War, but every nation has a dark past, take Nazi Germany for example, they wnted to wipe the Jewish population in concetration camps, also known as the Holocaust. That doesn't make everyone in that nation a bad person

Thank you majstore, I'll see you guys in another blog
