1. One would think that a glance to the left folloed by a simple Google/wikipedia search would have been more than adequate.
2. BS. People make assumptions only because they want to, either because they are too lazy to stop and think a little or because it just happens to be more convenient in any given situation, kind of like George Clooney's character in Up in the Air : "I'm like mym mother. I stereotype. It's faster."
3. How did "on the way to a business meeting wearing nice clothes" become exactly the same as "you are a businessman who wears formal attire??!" Dude, seriously, lay off the assumptions already! Sheesh!
