I don't think of any of those things. Since you are white I think you are just another privileged white girl living well off the persecution of others. Now that's really generalizing white people, I know there are poor white people who didn't benefit too much from being white in South Africa.
Most African countries are built up like South Africa, but White media seem to have a problem with acknowledging that Africans can do smart things like that.
Good MyTake. I knew all of those things before I even read that but I must admit that when I hear "South Africa," the first images that come to mind are Great White Sharks breaching in False Bay. Lol.
I just think of die antwoord lol but no seriously I dont think people realize what south africa is actually like.. it looks beautiful in some ways. That being said why aren't you following me? You look gorgeous.
Also while HIV can be transmitted through anal sex transmitting through vaginal or oral is very uncommon. Most HIV is contracted through the sharing of needles, among IV drug users. IV drug users are like 100x more likely to be poor versus the general population so that explains the discrepency
lol so true. the average American retard ignoramus that thinks greece is in asia and australia is an island of india, certainly believes all these things.
You would be surprised how many people still have these misconceptions of South Africa. I still get people asking me these questions on a daily basis when i tell them im from South Africa.
Most of my perception of what South Africa might be like is from the movie Chappie, and also I read on Wikipedia that a "blaster" is an anti-carjacking flamethrower that is now illegal in South Africa...

Im from Botswana and people don't even believe me when I say I am from Africa just because I am Indian (race not nationality)
Also South Africa and pretty much the rest of Southern Africa isn't just black and white there's also Indians too.
Yeah especially in Durban. I did say that South Africa has A diversity of cultures , religions , races , languages etc
I know.
Also in Botswana we also get SABC and DSTV.

My next-door neighbors are from South Africa. Haven't talked with them much though.
You should go ask them if they've ever had people asking them about lions roaming the street in SA etc. They probably have 😂😂

Actually I imagined oppressive governments, white people, and cold.
We actually have a wide variety of climates here, but its mostly warm climates.
Yeah. It's not a small country, so there must be a lot of variety.
Y'all have like a jungle and penguins at the same time xD
Not really when I think of South Africa I think of racist whites, segregation and apartheid.
Luckily apartheid is a thing of the past.
Yes.
You can imagine what they think when I say I'm from Kenya

I would think very multicultural and sharks along the beaches
Ha, it's practically the same for Hawaii.
I wanna visit cape town, go surfing and get attacked by a shark. That's the life right there, im jealous.
I have only known white South Africans, and one of them is Jewish.
I think "Ah, the only people that developed and then completely dismantled their nuclear weapons capability"
Cool. These days I think you could be friends with Trevor Noah! 😜

Mind blowing!
One of my old tennis coaches was from S. Africa, really hot white dude XP
I thought the main language was Afrikaans though, is that not the case?
being from North America I've never heard of any of those misconceptions but i think its great you took the time to educate others who may have!

Oh, and black people may or may not be grossly subjugated to this day, or otherwise are or are not disadvantaged, depending on who you ask...
Exactly... that's why people are just people... no biggie
I'd believe you
I've seen white Indians, white Africans... all kinds
