Ethnocentrism is the predisposition to view the world mainly from the perspective of one’s own culture. It often involves the belief that one’s own ethnic group or race is the most vital and that several or all features of its culture are superior to those of other groups. Each person will judge the other races in relation to their own particular ethnic group or culture especially with regards to behavior, language, custom, norms and religion. For example, non-Asian countries think that using chopsticks in every meal is strange, ridiculous or stupid way of eating because for them it’s more practical to eat with spoon and fork. Another example is kissing in public like the Americans do is unusual in the Philippines especially for the elders in the country. If you do it on public, people would watch and talk about you and their impression would be bad. Unlike in western society, it is just normal and casual and not bad at all because it is their practice. But here in the country, being liberated is not the preference of the majority and some people believe that it is virtuous to be conservative and aware of other people’s impression. That’s why here in the country mostly people kiss in private places not in malls, parks and places with crowd because the image will be awful. On the other hand, ethnocentrism is sometimes bad because it leads us to make false assumptions of cultural differences. Because of the beliefs that one’s own culture is greater that the other causes misjudgment of other people and it is where racial discrimination occurs. It also distorts the relationship and communication among between human beings. It is opposite to Xenocentrism.
