This does make a good point though. I mean, why would you want to be friends with someone you don't know?

I'd offer my traits as a friend, but I'm afraid it depends on the person. I can be serious, silly, encouraging, etc. But my behavior depends on the personality of whoever I'm interacting with.

I guess the best I can say is that I react to people as individuals and not based on some group (ethnic, cultural, whatever).
You do need to know someone to decide if you want to be their friend. My trouble is, I know lots of people (acquaintances I call them) and some of them I would like to be friends with. But I consider my own self to be so difficult that I never make the effort. Then feel myself getting resentful because "they don't want to be my friend". Truth be told, I'm not sure I know how to be a friend.
