The German Man Stereotype


  • power-hungry
  • nationalistic
  • hardworking
  • disciplined
  • perfectionist
  • love beer (which suggests slightly indecent, undisciplined behavior)
  • are fat and muscular
  • are proud of their masculinity (facial hair displays; beard clubs – really do exist!)
  • wear leather trousers (only in Bavaria, not Westphalia, where Düsseldorf is)
  • allegedly have no humor, but they do.
