English
My feeling is that in most cases when chatting with Americans or discussing things with them, they are quite…well, they get straight to the point. However, they can still be subtle or roundabout. If you’re speaking about certain views they can still be subtle (tactful). I would certainly not say that they are very pushy. I feel that I can be quite accepting (of their way). Another thing is, if they have their own opinion or point on a matter, usually they will support their point. They will not so easily give in or accept someone else’s point. They will defend their opinion. Yet at the same time they also respect the other person’s opinion. They respect others, but support their point.
