This sounds like this:
I visit America and everyone assumes that
I am a black-belt Karate and Juudo player, have Geisha-girl friends
and tends to loose temper and commit Harakiri-suicide.

I believe communication reduces stereotyping.
An English teacher from America said:
at first all his Japanese students looked very similar to him.
He did not notice any difference of characters.
He even felt it hard to identify their faces.
But, the more he began to know each student,
the more he recognized the characters;
now he reallizes every his student is quite a character.

The problem is,
to establish communication beyond cultural difference is not easy.
