For Spanish and German ppl.?

Question

For spanish: do you think that all Romanian are gypsy? Because we're not. It is a big difference between us, like the color of the skin. Is it that hard ?And I read about a pool done in Germany; 64% of the persons asked said that Romanian people are thief's. I am not.Whay do you generalize?

Answer 1

Don't be offended. It's easy for people to generalize or making sweeping, blanket statements that indict an entire group of people, but for the most part, intelligent, thinking people judge the individual.

I visit Spain often and have noticed what you are talking about. I lived in Germany for about two years and never heard anything about Romanians. It is funny because I remember Germans criticizing America's racial problems concerning Blacks one second, and then telling me to stay away from Turkish people because they were knife-carrying thieves, the next. People are funny.

Finally, all I know about Romanians is it's cool to hear them speak (I am Spanish speaker) because it is at once so similar and so different. I also have seen some BEAUTIFUL Romanian women! Wow!!

Answer 2

it's called "stereotyping" and stereotypes develop because a large number of a certain type of people follow the same behavior patterns. so while you may not be a thief, a fraction of romanians have given you all a bad name.

just like muslims. they're not all soul-sucking monster terrorists...but the fanatics have given their people a bad name.

Answer 3

I dont generalize, many people dont, but if you paticipate in a survey you have to generalize.
If you happen to meet one person from Romania on YAnswers who is not a thief and the other person from Romania who stole your purse then to you 50% of them are thiefs esp. in statistics
