"All generalizations are wrong, including this one."
Mark Twain
And yet here we are, 2013, still given to stereotyping and generalizing. What's up with that?

Yeah, during seven years of teaching in China I've seen some pretty ridiculous behavior by foreign colleagues and foreigners in general, but I've refrained from making a determination that, for example, "all Aussies are womanizers," just because I've observed a few drunken Aussies out on the town.

Well, Aussies don't tend to be teetotal poofters, that's for sure. What about your kind, [edited]?
