There were far fewer answers than the previous two or three weeks, but the answers this time were all FANTASTIC. Lots of really interesting stories about being stereotyped. Many would make good blog posts.
"What is a famous legend from your country/culture/tribe?"
This should be an interesting one. I usually like to focus on modern cultural differences and how lifestyles and values vary from culture to culture and among individuals, but sometimes the legends and myths in a culture can show us where these values come from or at least get a deeper sense of the cultural sensibilities.
I have a feeling this one will lead to some very in depth replies. Feel free to answer however you'd like though.
