Well, but people in general aren't as touchy-feely as they are here....this one dude whom I've known from way back rubbed my arm and touched my belly while he complimented me on how fit I look. I have gay friends...but this unwanted contact I do not agree with lol.
I was just being sarcastic. I agree with you list though (I have been in the US for 22 years). Unfortunately, the US is getting a bit more like Europe in the friendliness category at least on both coasts.
It is also not that easy as an immigrant with limited English skills. I am sorry to say that you do get ripped off repeatedly by a lot of people in the US when you are a naive immigrant. I had a very difficult first year I must say.
