9) No
10) pass. I am not american, so would reply from ignorance if I answered without experience.
11) No.

I add: but it swings both ways. trying to understand cultures as a white, when others dont seem to 'have to' seems a bit one sided.

at the end of the day its all about sharing and caring.

if you expect understanding, be expected to understand.
