I have been living bouncing back and forth between Brazil, Israel, and Colombia for the last several years. I use Tinder and Bumble a lot, and I notice in all these countries if you look at girls Instagram profiles(not all but many many), have their countries flag emoji in their profile, or maybe "100% Colombiana", or Israeli flag with hearts, etc etc. But when I visit America the girls display the flag that their like grandparents immigrated from and seemingly nobody wants to be "American" and it seems like a redneck or low class thing to put your american emoji in your profile. I have noticed this in larger American cities, it seems nobody wants to rep their flag, and it is a great contrast to other places I have been. Just an observation from a lurker
