This business of generalizing, stereotyping and speaking for others is problematical. Ones perceptions are limited to what one experiences. I refuse to be defined by others.

As Rene Descartes said, "If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things."

Be well.
