There seems to be a tendency, even among the intellectuals, to conveniently distinguish Eastern and Western people into two neatly compartmentalized personalities. Western people are said to be individualistic while Eastern people are communal. Western people are aggressive while Eastern people are gentle. Western people are straightforward while Eastern people are evasive. Western people are rational while Eastern people are emotional. Western people are analytical while Eastern people are analogical. Western people are idealistic while Eastern people are practical.
