How does your outward appearance (i.e. clothing, makeup, hairstyle, accessories, etc.) reflect your cultural identity?
I think that my outward appearance reflects my identity as a Greek, European female. Even if clothing differs in European countries, we all have a western style of clothing. I rarely put on makeup. However, I don't think that affects my identity. How do your behaviors and practices (i.e. rituals, daily activities, routines, habits, etc.) reflect your cultural identity? I think that my behaviors and practices distinguish myself from other people. My activities are related to my nationality, to my social class, to my age, to my gender. My routines and some of my habits, for example, are different from the those of Italians or Americans or other nations. I can't think of any ritual that reflects my identity. How do your beliefs and values (i.e. opinions, commitments, memberships, principles, etc.) reflect your cultural identity? I think that my beliefs and values reflect my cultural identity. My opinions about, I don't know. My commitments reflect my personal identity and my goals. My memberships as well, reflect my identity related to my age, as I have memberships on online services. My principles are... How do your dietary and domestic practices (i.e. hygienic routines, meals and mealtimes, food choices, daily chores) reflect your cultural identity? My dietary and domestic practices strongly reflect my cultural identity. Dinner time, for example, is at 8, 9 or even 10 pm, in contrast to the US, where, as far as I know, dinner time is earlier. My food choices also reflect my cultural identity, as I tend to choose Mediterranean ingredients, like tomatoes, olives, olive oil, oregano, feta cheese, etc. I don't know if my daily chores reflect a cultural identity, because I How does your region or location in the world reflect your cultural identity? This question seems strange. My region can reflect my cultural identity, in the food choices. My location also reflects my cultural identity, if I think of the weather. Our houses are also built with windows and balconies and terraces given that we usually have a good weather. Other reasons why my region or location would reflect my cultural identity could be something that I can't think right now but I have to continue writing. Let's see if any ideas come Describe a time when you were judged, excluded, or misunderstood because of one of the cultural traits noted above. First I will try to remember something related to my identity as Greek. I can't remember incidents related to my nationality. As a female, I was once judged for my driving by a rude male driver who did not want to admit that he was not right. It was many years ago, and it was the first year I was driving. I remember that I reacted and I yelled at him.
