∙ 11y agoI'm no literature genius- but kind of like how a generalization is probably some sort of stereotype, I think a valid generalization is something everyone knows or thinks about something, but that is entirely true. This might not be the best example, but maybe how everyone knows how lions are aggressive, even though some are tame. Or how all toddlers go through the "Terrible Two's," even though some toddlers are as nice as can be. Like I said... not the best examples, but I hope the explanation helps! Good luck. -By Anonymous Quo
