[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've noticed this too , honestly. Only recently, though.[/quote]

It seems after Trump it's happening more.  I'm finding it less easy to be like "Oh, just the Brits, whatever".  Lately it seems to have moved into downright unbridled hostility [/quote]

Yes, I think that's it.

Last week, I was in an airport lounge and smiled hello at an English man in the elevator. You know, like normal polite people do. He gave me a nasty look and said, "What do you want?" Bizarre.

Could have just been him, but - I travel a lot, and I've noticed a lot of this lately (and I'm an overweight woman, so obviously American).[/quote]

Yeah.  Very bizarre.  I know there are cultural differences but... it's hard to overlook something like that.  And that is exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about, strangely hostile behavior [/quote]

Cultural difference don't come into play as much in the airport, though. That's why I found it strange.[/quote]
