Would you consider yourself completely uninformed, somewhat informed, well-versed, or don't even care in:
- Language
- Traditions
- Holidays
- Ethnic Dancing
- Food
- Geography
- Travel (Have you been there or to any/all of them)
- Art
- Sport
- Do you interact socially or professionally with individuals who share your cultural background?

If not, why?

Just curious. Thanks for entertaining my questions.

<-- Armenian

I'm not very informed and have no interest to change that. I don't really see the point? I had no decision in the matter, similar to me being an American. I live in America which is the only reason I know really anything about the country. I think the blind loyalty people have towards any group is usually a bad thing

Don't know much. I know where the countries are, and some of the local cuisine, but not much else. I honestly don't associate myself with those countries in any way, and I bet the feeling is mutual.

As a mutt who is so far removed from anyone who ever did care, it simply doesn't interest me.

I think most of my ancestors lived in teepees and didn't have air conditioning or the internet. They were obviously inferior and I see no reason to know anything about their cute little "traditions". Fuck them.

Apparently I'm Polish (confirmed), Austrian, and English. I've been to Vienna and a few spots in England, but not for any sort of personal introspection, I just went for vacation. I'm not really one to care about that kind of crap, my love of Polack food is about as far as my interest in my heritage goes. /shrug

Ethnicity: English/Scottish

- Geography: It's an island with three "countries", then the Irish bit.
- Travel: never been
- Art: Shakespeare, the Beatles, British Invasion, Dr Who
- Sport: Can't stand soccer or cricket.
- Do you interact socially or professionally with individuals who share your cultural background?: I live in a commonwealth country. Can't help but do so.

Because we live in the modern era, where cocooning yourselves in communities built upon old conventions designed in part to maintain separation between the community considered "yours" and others is less useful than the opposite -- promoting harmony and unity through the recognition of greater commonality despite superficial differentiation.
