Thank you for your educated and fact-based response. Fabrications and exaggerations are much too often accepted as truth, perpetuated and, sadly, sometimes even recorded as history.

What does it take for us to realize that yes, humans may share some tendencies due to similar economic conditions, regional traditions or other factors, but that we are all individuals? For every ‘Why do?’ (blacks, whites, men, women, etc.) question I’ve read on Y? Forum, I have thought, ‘I know some one like that, but I also know (or know of) 10 people who are not like that.’ The ‘Why do all?’ myth is a reality only in our sensationalized media, dollar-seeking entertaiment industry (where perpetuation makes millionaires) and those of us who allow preconceived perceptions to be an easy and convenient explanation for an entire race or gender. Don’t allow Hollywood propaganda to spin our heads anymore.
