Why do so many people on here give their negative opinion about visiting another country when they have never been to that country? I've seen so many "Paris sucks...I've never been there but, F#@K the French" or "don't go there...it's dirty and nasty, so I hear".

They are more than likely hating on the French as they feel it is patriotic to do so after our little skirmish a few years ago. They did desecrate our war heroes burial grounds that fought to keep them free, by tearing up the cemetary & spray painting get your sh*t out of our soil. So...Really you should be asking thisd question to non-Americans, because I see more non-Americans on this sight hating on us then anything else. They think they know all about us & all about our politics & what kind of people we are & they have never been here. It's funny because they hate us, but I bet they wouldn't pass down a free immigration pass.

Either ignorance, prejudice or envy.
People should want to expand their experience, and travel is a great way to do it.
Those who criticize other places that they have never been to are as ignorant as people who say "I don't like Joe, but I have never met him." I mean, really, that makes no sense at all to think that way.
But sometimes, I think it is out of envy or jealousy. They think they will never have the opportunity to visit other places, so they try to convince themselves that it is not worth traveling anyway because they will not like those places.

Obviously because they have judged a complete country and it's people by what they have heard from aquaintances and the media.

It's an opinion, and an opinion only. the nice thing about that is you can do what you want and form your own opinions, and then you can come on here and share yours! LOL!
And maybe........just maybe yours will be positive!

Well because they base there perception on what they see on tv and assume everyone in that country is like that.

If you have been to France then tell us what's good, but don't put words in the mouths of the ignorant. No one is bound to listening to trash talk.

Yeah...these types of people have already made up in their mind who they like and who they hate, just based on their political preference. Kind of silly, to me. And not very openminded.
