Well, I'll concede to you that I'm having serious doubts as to whether or not my wife is even human, yes.
But I mean, again, General Statements Are General for a reason.
About 98% of my family are women. They all cheat, they all treated their men generally like sh*t, they all played the victim when it went south, and they all cried the blues when they ended up alone. Rinse and Repeat. Only being able to call What I See, I look at that sample data and WHEW, the conclusions one is forced to draw from that is staggering.
So I mean, is that "literally the entire world", no. But you have to figure, if you know a hundred or so people and 98 of them are a certain way, you can multiply exponentially and feel safe in saying that Most Of Them Are Actually Like That. Because what are the odds that ALL the scumbags are segregated over in one little circle? Not likely.
That's why polls and studies don't literally poll Every Single Individual and rely on a sample size. Because it's implicitly understood that the sample size is just a microcosm of the rest of the world and that you CAN safely infer from that data that "This Is How It Is". You don't NEED to find every single individual and ask them, you just figure the sampling of data is accurate enough to generalize.
Science!
