Whites, like east Asians, are more likely to judge themselves very harshly, and then to turn their judgments inward.
Simply put, east Asians and Whites tend to blame themselves, and then sometimes take actions based on that self-blame; whereas Blacks, Hispanics and other Asians (i.e. central and western Asians) tend to blame their personal shortcomings on others (e.g. parents, community, society, the United States, Western civilization,…), and then lash outward.
I’m not sure of the racial statistics of white men over white teen boys, mixed race men, and other races in the United States, but it’s possible that there are more white men than non-white men.
