Here you go.  Everyone not in green is likely to have poor hygiene.

I don't think it's good to generalize that all the people in a particular place are hygienic, but thanks for the demographics though.  ;D
How you choose to live is your choice. I prefer men who practice hygiene because it shows he's responsible enough to clean after himself; but personality and intelligence also needs to be considered too. 

PS: Also, a big turn off for me are men who are full of themselves.  :-X

It wasn't as much a generalization as it is data driven.  Third world countries are poor, the reason for being classified as such.  Poverty precludes people from being able to afford dental and healthcare and general nourishment.  Transitively, that leads to poor dental and poor physical health.  The doctors without borders and the peace core, etc., exist to aid those countries because they are in need.

"Everyone not in green is likely to have poor hygiene"

That comment is extremely inaccurate and offensive! You also said that "It wasn't as much a generalization as it is data driven", but clearly you don't know hot to interpret data, nor you know much about "third world countries". Here are some things to take into account when thinking about theese countries: they are often very unequal nations. While part of the population live in poverty, another part can have quite a high standard of living. Some 3rd world cities have as high HDI as northern European countries. Puting this kind of data out of it's context often leads to stereotypical notions about the 3rd world, some notions like "everyone is poor" or, like you said "Everyone is likely to have poor hygiene".

[nordicblue]

Which cities are there that you think are have a high standard of living.  Even if some people are living like kings-most likely only the politicians–everyone else is underserved.  What's more, as you pointed out, is the great disparity in income and living conditions.  Third world countries are so named because of their low regard for human rights, a low GNI gross national income per capita, country wide average of low literacy, country wide average of low access to medical necessities.

You are full of prejudices. You like data and ressearching so much, so you should do so, but in a proper way. And also meet people from other countries, specially 3rd world people. Or even go there and see for yourself. I can guarantee those high standards are not only for politicians and super-rich people, specially in countries such as Brazil, South Africa, India, Mexico, Argentina… and so many others. You are quoting data without puting it into context, and without any kind of critial or analytical perspective. It's a very narrow-minded way of seeing the world.

Anyone can say something is flawed or out of context without pointing out the flaws or how it is out of context.  That is even more incindiary than the supposedly out-of-context data.  It is ironic that you mention the lack of analytical perspective since you have provided absolutely no analytical perspectives or empirical evidence for your counter argument.

It's not just a matter of analytical perspective, it's a matter of fact. I live in Brazil and I'm telling you that by first hand testimony. Besides, a LOT of people here in this forum are from third world countries. All you have to do is ask around. What you did with your post was saying that me and mmany other users here have poor health standards and that we should be avoided. That's offensive, prejudicial and maybe even racist. You talk about third world country people as if we wouldn't ever be able to talk for ourselves. As if we were not here in this very forum talking to you all the time. So maybe you can stop a litte and listen to what the actual 3rd world has to say on the issue.

Hey guys, keep it cool

Allright. I will say no more, except for this: it pisses me off when gay people are all prejudicial and stuff. I mean… gay people, just as any other minority group should know better.
