About stereotyping: In the early 90s I served as a field officer at SHAPE (European military Headquarters of NATO) at Mons in Belgium. There we had our fun with stereotyping, we took the opposite of what was expected. Some examples I recall

A perfect NATO-Officer should be:
humorous like a German
flexible like an American(US)
straightforward like a Brit
available like a Belgian
sober like a Canadian
always on time like an Italian
multilingual like a French
generous like a Dutch

etc...

Another one:
The world would be heaven
if the police was British
the lovers were Italian
the engineers were German
the bankers were Swiss
the cooks were French

But the world would be hell
if the police was German
the bankers were Italian
the cooks were British
the engineers were French
the lovers were Swiss
