I never said that Australia was not a diverse country. It is very diverse. BUT, if you want to quantify diversity, it is just as important to ask "how many different ethnicities/cultures do we have in our country?" as it is to ask "what is the percent distribution of all those different ethnicities/cultures?" And…

Yep, no arguments.

It's not a Gawker article AND your "men love (heavier-than-lithium) metals stereotype" is still a figment of your imagination and the "women love diamonds" stereotype is still totally real, pervasive, and exploited on sites like Jezebel. If you actually read the io9 article on the metal stars you would see that no…

There's nothing basic about a star made entirely out of heavier-than-lithium metals. In fact it's pretty amazing.

Er...nice try, but no.

Well, given this fact your stereotype is indeed fairly close. I'm 19.

Is this another ageist comment?

That's the thing, I did. Still awaiting a response.

I want to hug you!

How old are you, just curious?

I already have.

Do explain.

I see the demon of Jezebel has possessed you ;)

Yep. Nationalism is their response mechanism.

Jezebel posts!

Nationalist movements can exist for the sole purpose of demanding a referendum. But this is not important. The important point is that the regions of the UK that I just mentioned have a sense of ethnic identity. The same cannot be said of Southern Pride or Texas Pride.

Okay, let me put this more clearly.

Certainly a factor as well.

First of all, these are the most recent numbers. You are right that many white european immigrants face prejudice, although that's probably not the case in Australia. I would have to say though that in the UK there is a strong ethnic sense of pride, to the point that even small regions have their own "independence"…
