MMM, please don't close the thread, yet. Yes it's a stereotype, but I has been a cordial discourse and the person who generated the thread may learn something. She asked politely and seems open to learning why. We've estblished the fact that it is a stereotype. If it's polite, then it may be a way of overcoming the stereotype, at least with the person who asked the question.

As long as it stays cordial I won't be the one to close it, but if the line is crossed, it will likely be be gone.
Keep in mind the opinions of Westerners in USA, Europe, etc. vs. Asians in Asia and how and why they are so different.
