perceived superiority is, in my opinion, a Gene that is present in most Germans
Have known many Germans as well as Swiss. Been there many times and have to agree with you on that one. Another trait is "sense of humor missing" ....big time.

(superiority gene)That sounds very condescendig. In my opinion Americans are the ones that think they are superior. Just turn on the TV or radio and what do you hear? What a great country.. you are lucky to live here..american innovation...we are the most powerful...the best this and that...only in america.
Do you hear rhetoric like this in Europe? Pledge of allegiance every morning in school! OMG They don't have brainwashing session of that sort in ANY European school.
