They dress really well and they are very well mannered, but they are also very restrained,&quot; she added.<\/p>\n<p>However, Watson added that there are elements of US men that she did not like &ndash; most notably their habit of always wearing flip flops and the fact they can be very open and straightforward.<\/p>\n<p>Posted by Samantha Thompson<img decoding=\"async\"
