Americans are more open minded than Europeans

Started reading famous poet Ada Jafri’s autobiography ‘Jo rahi so be-khabri rahi’.

While mentioning her love for book, she refer to her visit to Washington’s library. After visiting library, she sat on stairs. In her words, ‘In USA, you can sit any where.. wear what you want to wear. walk bare footed. No one will stare at you. No one will bother what are you doing. But in Europe, you can observe people staring at you and sometimes their gestures carry contempt.’ She specifically mentions London from Europe.

The autobiography was probably written few decades back (yet have to go trough the complete book to see that).

Do you agree with this observation of the poet?
