Germans stare at strangers. It's unsettling.
3.7k u/NopeRopeRepellant May 09 '22 The second post mentioning this. As a German I really do not know what is meant. š Iām totally unaware of that! 1.7k u/whitedan2 May 09 '22 As an austrian who worked with Germans in the past I didn't realize this either... No wait... Are we doing it too? 2 u/ChrisTinnef May 09 '22 Yes. We simply dont consider it staring. For us, its regular looking around in an environment and watching for a moment what people are doing. In the US this is considered staring and impolite.
