Could it be that I am not Japanese, and I do not bow out of habit?

For some people, politeness is to open the door for a lady, for others this is just strange. What is your concept for politeness
Please use the option "Edit" to explain the specific situation which has made you ask this question. I think the possibility of getting more useful answers would be bigger.
Generally, I've met impolite Japanese mostly among the youngsters, and among middle aged men. If you are referring to the non- Japanese, well, politeness is not a virtue, but a tool (in Europe).

i think the general consesus is:
we're not the impolite ones...
can you be more specific in your question? who do you mean when you say "you" and what do you mean by "impolite"?

I dont find myself to be impolite. I don't say aweful things to anyone here or anyone period. You are putting everyone into one catagory.

With strangers, I try to be polite, but some mistake that politeness for weakness and end up treating me as a worseless weak individual.

Take this question to the "United States" page. Most Japanese are very polite...
