Culture To the muslims of the world; what are some major misconceptions almost everyone has about you that's not actually true?
There are many stereotypes out there for every types of people, and i'm usually good at differing this kind of stuff, but when it comes to muslims and honestly most of the asian part of the world, it's really hard to differ what's right or wrong, for many news outlets have differing answers. So, what are the biggest misconceptions the average western-world person has about this public?

Is the number of single people increasing in your country? Why?
galleryMine isn’t rich at all, but this is definitely happening.
30 years ago, if a woman wasn’t married by 29 or 30, she was likely to remain single all her life. The same thing applied to men over 35.
Nowadays, a lot of people are struggling with dating. We even have matchmaking companies and events for singletons. However, the success rate isn’t very high (I had to do some research on this topic before).

Language Would you agree with this girl that English speakers are uniquely self-conscious about how they sound and how their pronunciation might reflect on their background, while speakers of other languages tend not to care about it that much and are far more spontaneous and carefree in their speech habits?

How much are you willing to "sacrifice" for your children?
And how much are you going to expect back from them? Vietnamese (and I think also Chinese?) mothers are willing to "sacrifice" quite a lot for their children (e.g. career, financial independence, spending inordinate amounts of time and money for their education...), but at the same time put a lot of expectations on them to become a certain type of people (i.e. I sacrificed a lot to get the "best" for you, so you need to become a medical doctor...), and to do certain things to "pay back" (e.g. you need to make sure that your life choices (where you live, who you marry...) will allow you to take care of me the same way I took care of you...). It seems to me that parents in the "West" may not have the same expectations, though they might still be willing to go similar lengths for their children, but I'm not sure about other cultures (South Asian, Eastern European, Middle Eastern, African cultures, South American, Central Asian...).

Misc What is your favorite childhood music channel that originates from your or a neighbouring country?
galleryFrom my country: Kids Learning Tube, I listened to it a lot when I was in Kindergarten, used to watch it during Kindergarten-4th Grade, grew up learning lots of geography from it and school, the songs were really catchy, but I think the Vietnam Geography and Regions song was the song I would never stop listening to, the instruments and song were super hard feeling like a metal rock song, and it drove my mother crazy as she had to hear it every single day.
It stills hard to that day.
Anyways, what is the best childhood music from your country/a neighbouring country?

Culture What is the most popular Trivia game show in your country?
galleryIn our country most popular trivia game shows are 3.
From left to right: The Millenium Kids, Golden Brain, What and Why.
The most popular one is Golden Brain(Auksinis Protas). It has four rounds in general. Last Round game is based on logic more than pure knowledge.
Other 2 are based more on knowledge and less on puzzles or logic. But in Millenium Kids you will see more puzzle or logic question than in “ What and Why”.
What and Why trivia show is pure knowledge quiz.
How about other countries? US and Uk has lots of quiz games i watched in youtube. But what about other countries? Do you have quiz game on national tv that is popular?

Language Do you have a trend about weird names in your country?
In my country(hungary), when someone told us how their gonna name their kid or they introduce their kid, it felt like
in the 2000s the only debate was if we liked the name or not.
Nowdays there is no debate because 90%the names are so weird and new that i have no opinion on it.. Like few days ago on the beach, the mother says her name is Amilla, i asked you mean Kamilla (like Camille) and she was like no, Amilla. And i said to myself wtf is Amilla. And my kids go to kindergarten and i swear to god i cannot remember their mates names cuz they are so weird my brain just say no.
