I think it's just the way we are. Maybe subconsciously it makes us feel better about our own hang-ups if we criticise someone elses. I suppose it starts very young, in schools .... skinny, fatty, specky, bean pole. Maybe it's just easier to criticise than to give compliments. I dunno ... what I do know though is it would be boring if we were all the same.
