我跟若蘭已經熟到我常常會忘記她是法國人了，直到四月親身到法國走一遭之後，才慢慢在她身上找到了法國人的味道。
有一次我們聊到彼此都破除了自己對對方文化的刻板印象，雖然說這種話題真的很難開開心心的討論，但是探討的結果是值得的。
Our friendship is so close that I sometime forgot the fact that Josepha is a French. It was after I visited France that I could really see the French influence on her.
We had a conversation about the stereotypes how we view each other's culture but broke when we understood each other by person. It wasn't a very easy chat for some sensitive reasons, but it's worthy to find out our stereotypes.
若蘭打破我心中的法國刻板印象：
The French stereotypes that don't apply on Josepha:
1. 她很浪漫，但不會過度濫情。她不搞一夜情。
1. She is romantic, but not overly sentimental. She doesn't do one-night-stand.
2. 她大部分的衣服都是黑色灰色，但她也有很多彩色的衣服。(尤其是裙子跟蝴蝶結髮飾)
2. Most of her outfit are in black or gray, but she also has lots of colourful clothes. (Especially skirts and accessories)
3. 她常微笑，應該是說她常常大笑！我以為巴黎人都板著一張臉。
3. She smiles a lot. In fact, she LAUGHS a lot! I thought Parisians always pull a long face.
4. 她熱愛美食，但是她不太常吃蝸牛。
4. She loves food, quality food. But she's not very into cuisine with snails.
我打破她心中的華人刻板印象：
The General Chinese stereotypes that don't apply on me:
1. 我說話很直，NO 就是 NO。
1. I usually say what I mean. I say NO directly when I mean so.
2. 我很高。
2. I am tall.
3. 我不喜歡跟一群人一起旅遊，也不喜歡在觀光景點拍搞笑照片。
3. I don't like to travel with a group of people. I don't tend to take funny pictures in front of famous touristic spots, neither.
4. 我不會傻笑。
4. I don't giggle.
她對法國人一夜情的刻板印象不太認同，她覺得法國人是很浪漫，但也不至於通通都發展到一夜情。
She doesn't agree with the stereotype that French people are very open to one-night-stand. She thinks that French people are generally quite romantic but don't necessarily develop relationships so quickly.
我對傻笑這件事還滿驚訝的，其實在台灣從小就很多人都勸我要多笑不然看起來很兇，尤其是長輩都說「多笑才會人見人愛阿」，但我就是覺得不真心的笑很累，微笑還好我有練過，傻笑就真的很累。
之後想想，亞洲女生好像真的很喜歡傻笑。
I am quite surprised with the giggle stereotype! To be honest, people in Taiwan always encourage me to smile more to look softer, especially elder generation always educate me "People like you more when you have a smile on your face!". Somehow I found it really hard to smile insincerely! Good thing is that I am pretty good at putting a smile on my face, but giggling is EXHAUSTING!
I tried to think of my Taiwanese or other Asian friends... Asian girls do tend to giggle more!
刻板印象真的是一門非常有趣的問題，大家有碰過什麼特別的刻板印象嗎？
Stereotype is a very interesting topic. Do you have or encounter any special stereotype?
