That number is plucked from thin air unless you made a conscious effort to observe behaviour as objectively as you reasonably could in Europe and the US and you literally counted all the mean women and all the nice women in each place. It's still a general impression, not a real statistic. You have to real research to generate a real statistic. Putting a number on a general impression doesn't give it any greater validity.
It's based on my objective samples from London, Madrid, and Zurich. I did count nice women and nasty women, excluding restaurant and hotel staff that are paid to be nice. You are right that it is not a real statistic. For an objective study, several samples with different types of men would be needed.
Anyway, no problem being a pissed off European with great aspirations for sexual conquests all over the world. Why not travel about testing your null hypothesis on uniformity with some ANOVA?
If you really did do those observations in Europe and America, and quantified your data honestly, you have a real and valid statistic and I am impressed by your dedication to data collection.
I don't think it's really valid. Firstly, I'm kind of a dork. American women generally don't like that. European women (especially in Madrid) seemed to interpret it more as sincerity and willingness on my part to accept them. My raw data is on the back page of a notebook I was using during the trip.
Non-verbal interpersonal communication, and subjective perceptions of beauty are so complex that this stuff will never be very conclusive. Certain guys just get most of the babes.
BTW, I salute your faith in statistical methods, quantification of variance, and sample validation using Chi Square, etc. Lame ass Liberal Arts majors blindly dismiss stuff they don't want to hear without ever doing the math.
IIN for an American guy to prefer European girls
