While I appreciate your sincere attempt to point out cultural 
differences, and there are, it must be noted that even within the same 
cultural group there exists differences (as you can note from the 
previous thread) in values, cultural or otherwise.

It therefore seems necessary to remind ourselves not to generalize 
traits as characteristics of a certain culture.

Just my 2 drachmas. Please proceed with discussion. ;)
