[quote=Anonymous]It'a not a matter of being entitled to stating your opinion. I would imagine that most cultures have a norm of "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all." It's also not just sharing her culture. It's actively insulting mine. And it's not just things that are fact - indeed, there are things about the US that suck, definitely. It's an active choice to disparage everything that is US-identified as compared to how awesome everything (literally everything and everyone) is in her country and making sure we know it. If you can't understand how that would be annoying and upsetting, particularly in a cultural exchange program where you're SUPPOSED to be making an effort yo share your culture, then you are being deliberately obtuse.
