[quote=Anonymous]I’m not aware of any stigma specifically against Peru. I know there is some stigma about immigration and some prejudice against Hispanics, but nothing against Peru specifically. Frankly, Americans do tend to be focused on America, with little knowledge or awareness of the rest of the world. Our knowledge of America’s own geography and history is appalling, with a sharp drop-off when it comes to foreign countries. I’m afraid it would surprise me if even half of Americans knew that Peru was a country (which is not a reflection of Peru, but of American ignorance - I wouldn’t expect them to recognize many other countries, either). As for the question of Peruvian alcohol tolerance, I’m not a drinker myself. I certainly don’t pay attention to anyone else’s drinking habits.[/quote]
