British people have Peter Pan syndrome, don't they? Why are they so scared to grow up?

Well, that is the most judgemental remark I have seen in a long time. I am a serious English woman; well educated, with two degrees and other qualifications. I have a responsible job in the voluntary sector. There is nothing vapid, shallow or infantile about me, or any of my friends and acquaintances. Your question is actually vapid, shallow, infantile and nonsensical.

What another stupid question.
Stop generalizing.
I have not met any British person like that.
But maybe YOU'RE the one who's vapid, shallow, infantile and suffering from Peter Pan syndrome.

As a British person I would say that we are not too boring but I have to admit with the cost of living and the lousy weather it does cause a certain amount of depression. I don't think we are particularly more shallow than anyone else in the world. The reason we don't want to grow up is so we don't get so bigoted as you appear to be.

I know what you mean, I am the same.
I am so shallow and wussy that I think that the Goverment has our best interests at heart, that Rupert Murdoch is a fine patrician gentleman, the press never lie, misrepresent and misreport and that copious amounts of henious chemicals are very good for mental and emotional stablity.
I have another head growing from my shoulder, believe that Paris Hilton should be on TV permenantly, pick my nose in public and don't think much of Jesus. Have a nice day...

The whole world is vapid, shallow and childlike at the end of the day. If we all analysed our daily behaviour from pretending to be friendly to each other: 'hi, you alright?' (when you don't mean it) to screaming at the guy in the next car, to eating a slaughtered animal on your plate and celebrating it with a bottle of wine, without a passing thought to the pain and hell it's been through, to hurting each other in so many ways, to trying to get the better of each other, to coming out with crap like :' oh you won the lottery? I'm really pleased for you!' Yeah right, you hate him and you know it ,so why pretend? (that one really gets to me!)
So, all in all, I think Brits can escape on this one - everyone is as selfish and as bad as you say, no matter how much they protest!
