USA is a very, very low trust society (mostly because of one demographic in particular) and for that reason they are not common. They exist, but they're rare
I'm not saying anything about your country. I'm saying you specifically are a most likely underage homosexual who is only capable of thinking in buzzwords you read on SighSee
Trust in societies is a real thing you dumbfrick.
It is why my unlocked bike would get stolen within minutes in America whereas I could leave it unlocked and unattended for days in Japan without it being stolen.
It is a legitimate concept in cultural studies, not some made up /misc/ nonsense.
>It is a legitimate concept in cultural studies, not some made up /misc/ nonsense.
Yes but you only know and talk about it because of /misc/ nonsense dont you. It wasn't something people mentioned at all even a year ago here and suddenly everyone a social scientist and we're supposed to pretend like youre not just regurgitating some morons argument you read in another thread word for word
Leaving your bike with 2 locks here still gets it stolen..

A cool homeless guy sold me a sick bike in Rotterdam for 10 euros
please tell me more about what it's like to live in the USA, i'm sure you have loads of experience
please tell me what it's like specifically in my region, in my state, in my city

He's right though. You say "low cost short term accomodations" and 99% of people are going to think "addicts and Black folks" and be opposed to it on that basis
I have lived in Sinaloa Mexico Medellin Colombia Saint Denis in Paris and Burma during the civil war
in none of those places have I ever felt threatened like in New York City during a random walk through black areas
I even had two blacks shot right next to me (as in I saw the shots going into them) during my two months there
I don't know how Americans live with it and pretend all is fine
they are feral
This is correct. Even before this was true though Americans were rich and didn't need communal sleeping. And even before that right around the turn of the century when America wasn't as rich, they had boarding houses.
Why do you share dorms with strangers then? Also why do you have toilet stalls instead of individual rooms? Do you like hearing and smelling strangers shit?
I've met Americans at a lot of hostels and they all think creepy people and homeless/poor people would be too much of a problem if they were in the US. Women would never feel safe staying in them.
hostels and boarding houses were regulated out of existence in the 50s during slum clearances and suburbanization
most cities would refuse them on the grounds that they would be too attractive to homeless, junkies and what not
depends on the hostel. the ones i've been to i used to leave my macbook and phone in the common room and wander off and it would still be in the same place when i came back
Hostels are fricking stupid anyways, imagine willingly sharing a room with a bunch of smelly people you don't know from anywhere
Not even dead i would do that
There are hostels, what are you all talking about? I stayed in one in DC recently. It was as expensive as a night in a 3star hotel in most cities in Europe.
It does tho?
Do you live here or me?
Black folk
bump

have you ever had a thought that didn't come from a post you read on /misc/
>let me tell you about your country
Aussies know a thing or two about racism

It's really bad they're not human. thankfully they're only in certain areas and can be avoided for the most part
Good Lord, you are a genuine moron.
This is correct. Even before this was true though Americans were rich and didn't need communal sleeping. And even before that right around the turn of the century when America wasn't as rich, they had boarding houses.
We used to have something similar called bed & breakfast, but big motel chains ran them out of business decades ago.
these only exist now in small rural towns populated by dying boomers
How much a night costs there, youre full of shit probably
Imagine the sex
i remember all the pre purge pornhub videos of guys jacking off in hostels it was hot af
We have hotels here. We dont need to sleep communally we strangers.
Why do you share dorms with strangers then? Also why do you have toilet stalls instead of individual rooms? Do you like hearing and smelling strangers shit?
a. social skills are important for young adults to learn. After first few years you should rent when commuting to school.
b. yes
good ol' american individualism
we're not poor
we do, they are called pods
imagine how bad idea that would be even if every american was white
The actual answer is over-regulation. Most municipalities will have bylaws that prevent them, unintentionally or not.
We do thoughbeit, but only in the important city areas

looks exactly like the dorms i had in the army but if dudes were in the female dorms or females in the male dorms you'd go to army jail
Seriously? Are you not allowed to frick at all?
France has hostels and it's full of Black folk
we do? Ive stayed at hostels in Boston, Detroit, Chicago, and Philadelphia
how much did hostels cost you there?
because other countries have hostels that are like $15 a night
because hostels are low-quality accommodations for poor, undesirable people
seems like a good way to get robbed
depends on the hostel. the ones i've been to i used to leave my macbook and phone in the common room and wander off and it would still be in the same place when i came back
I can assure you that would not occur in the US
United Statesians are fearful homosexuals
it's reasonable to be afraid of megaBlack folk
Hostels are fricking stupid anyways, imagine willingly sharing a room with a bunch of smelly people you don't know from anywhere
Not even dead i would do that
tourist hostels are a pretty good place for autists to improve their social skills. the people there are warm and receptive for the most part
because you hate sex with young women
