Obesity, skiny, tall, short, unibrow, hairy, flat figure
#39
Ah, so, failed to find anything to backup what I said (I admit I just repeated what I hear people often say, and from how the media portraits them riches). But the point that I am trying to make is that a neutral generalization isn't to be compared to a negative one.

Edit:

Personally I find that the only reason why a neutral generalization is accepted while a positive/negative generalization is shunned is really because of the perceived implications or fear of offending someone - I don't want to believe someone is fat because he is lazy, but it still stands that the majority are.
All right, then here is a question. Is being offended logical at all? Do we really get offended because we're logical?
