Just for the record, stating that a man allegedly felt you up because he was Welsh and implying that all Welshmen are perverts is racism.
Just the same as saying a man is obviously going to mug you because he's black would be.
Another nationality or race sharing your skin colour does not make it okay to make negative generalisations about them, especially when you're using them to influence people's opinion of a country.
English people - of which I am clearly one - have a reputation of arrogance as a nation, if you go to another country and propagate that stereotype of course the locals will dislike you. It's your responsibility to show them that it's untrue.
I have never met a Welsh person - in or outside of their home country - who was not lovely; including Simon, who is from Port Talbot near Swansea, and who has been a dear friend of mine since I was 16. To assume that all Welsh people are bullies and perverts - to call them such in other people's journals, especially when that person is expressing an interest in moving to the country - is fucking appalling. To genuinely believe what you are saying, is very, very sad and ignorant.
If anyone else around shares this kind of prejudice, let me know so I canfuck your shit up defriend you. Thanks.
