This thread is probably going to piss me off...

Quote:
Who is easier to be with in a romantic relationship, who is more likely to do something for their community, who is more likely to be a loyal friend? Who is more likely to put so much emphasis on beauty?
Depends on the person. Ask yourself this question... does being American/Japanese make you inherently more/less likely to fit the above criteria?

Why is this generalization made?
Same reason most generalisations are made. It's either an observed and common phenomenon amongst a particular group... or it's made out of ignorance and bias. For this one I'm going for the latter.
