> Maybe you were born tall and attractive and then this led you to engage in a lot of athletic activities and socialization, and at the end of all of the positive feedback you have ended up with a jock personality that goes on to become a professional football player.

Is that really that tall and attractive guys want to become football players? I always that football players attract the same stereotypes as police officers, big and stupid.

In Europe only the most stupid folks want to become soccer players. Even if they'll end up filthy rich, with lots of tattoos and horrible haircuts.

I just watched Gary Gulman's comedy special Depresh Mode. He's a guy built like a football player and yet he's a depressive comedian. Only someone whose perception of their body matches their perception of their personality would come to the conclusion that everybody else on Earth must be a walking stereotype. It's like the Talking Heads song Seen and Not Seen but it's not a joke.
