If a large number of people from a specific group keep repeating the same pattern of behavior over and over again, why does it hurt to make legitimate generalizations when discussing these things if they are really happening? It's one thing to make up bold face lies about people, it's another thing entirely to make generalizations (no matter how blunt or insensitive they may be) if they based off valid and legitimate reality.
You understand right that when people "generalize" they are not talking about all the members of that group, just the majority of them.
People are just too sensitive these days.
