Q.
Are people generally aggressive or are they non-aggressive in your culture?
A.
Compared to other cultures, the American culture can be seen as more aggressive. This is because we are raised to speak up for ourselves. This doesn’t mean that we are raised to shout, but to speak up when something is wrong. The ability to speak up for oneself and others is prized in the American culture. Still, I have a lot of American friends who do not like this way. Different personalities will exist in any culture. Some people are better at speaking up and some are not. But in the American culture, we are encouraged to do so in a calm manner.
