Is it normal to hate lebanese people ?

I'm a french guy and I HATE lebanese people , they learn our language and all , but they are much much ruder than us , the women thinks they are Godesses of the earth , and are conceited , the men think that they have the right to be mean and rude . People say don't generalize when they use steriotypes against certain nationality or people , but show me one Lebanese that isn't arrogant , narcisisstic ,fake ,conceited , selfish,think they are the best , mean , rude , and i'll tell you "i was wrong .."

    French people can be stuck up.

  • A lot of people say that about the French too. It's all just stereotypes and misunderstandings about different cultures. It's a natural feeling to feel frustrated with people who do not share the same cultural background.

    Try to root out the source of your frustration, without blame & stereotype. I think you'll find that you do not like rude/conceited people in general, not just in Lebanese people. Also, you may not know enough about Lebanese culture to notice and appreciate the positive aspects, so you're really only seeing the bad.

    It also helps to research the history or recent past of an unfamiliar culture to see what has shaped it as a society and how it has affected the people. Your new-found knowledge, if you acquire it with a compassionate heart, will set you free of your current feelings of disgust and frustration.

    • I meant that there are good/bad people/behaviour in every culture, just that you happen to be focusing on only the bad.

  • Aww don't say that! Lebanese people are one of the most generous people I've met. Here in Australia, there are more than a few and I love how family oriented and religious they are ^_^ and Arabic music kicks ass!

    I am Lebanese.. And I hate being Lebanese for exactly what you have cited.. Now posting this comment in 2022, I can confidently say that the Lebanese ripped what they sowed with their current situation..

    Male Lebs are disgusting to say the least! the women can be attractive, but some are so ugly & fat they should be made to stay indoors or cover up,

    alll lebs have a horrible attitude of give me, absolutely no manners, inbred ,

    the males can be compared to apes or orangutan, the resemblance is remarkable! especially if they take steroids & lift weights

    Lebs are good at stealing , drug dealing etc not contributing to society picking fights with innocent people,
    they are the cancer in australian society

    I am Lebanese, have lived in Lebanon most of my life (although I did travel well) and I feel this way sometimes. I would not say regularly or often, but it happens again and again for some reason, to the point where I really want to get away from this country and people, and guess what, I'm not the only one feeling this way!

    I don't know if it's "normal", in fact, I'd like to know, but I can understand all the things that you say, about being rude, without anything to be rude about.

    I hate generalizations, but sometimes I can't just deny what I feel and think.

    I'd also like to know what to do about it.

    The funny thing is ... if you copy paste your statement and replace Lebanese with French and show it to most Americans, they would agree with you and think its normal. I have french friends in the US and I think they are great and don't agree with the stereotype.
    Hate only brings on more hate .. live and let live. Also, maybe it just seems your encountered bad ones, every nationality has them.

  • You guys who defended Lebanon , are kinda lucky to have encountered "good ones" or you are just saying that , but in my experience they weren't good .

      Yes, of course there are "good ones". You seem not to have had too much contact with Lebanese. I've also had some bad experiences. It just sucks coz then you try to make generalizations but then they don't work because some people break them :) I guess generalizations are meant to be broken and don't work that well, but then what you describe also really happens, just go to one of those "huppé" new bars in downtown Beirut and see how the waiters treat you... you will also see that the caveman look is still very popular and trendy in Lebanon. I guess we just have to avoid these places (and people).

    I quite like Lebanese people. I've only known a few so maybe it's a small sample size, but they were really nice.

    I don't know the ones you've met but the ones I know are kind hearted. My mom's been sick in the hospital for a few weeks now and a Lebanese family that my parents know have been cooking us super and sending it over for the past couple days.
