"Universal Generalizations"?

Please . . . enlighten me to this term.

A universal generalization is one which pertains to all members or items of a group, whereas an existential generalization does not.

Dude . . .

I think what you're going for (if you are trying to emphasize the danger of stereotyping a group, set or sub-set) is: Inappropriate Generalization.

AKA - Logical Fallacy (also - Proof by Example).

If not, then you were clearly were asleep during class (Calculus) and might consider a refresher course.

Are you trying for predicate logic inference terminology?

It would be easier to state "Stereotyping, Bad - Respect Everyone, Good".

You might want to do a bit of research on this subject before going any further. Shouldn't take you more than a ¹⁄₂ hour to realize that my usage of the terms is appropriate.

And no, I'm not trying to show that stereotyping is wrong, but rather, that generalizations pertaining to ethnic groups are *not* necessarily wrong, which is a very common misperception among liberal moral fags.
