Imagine if there was a 'default assumption' that everyone had blue eyes.

Maybe you just picked a bad example, but that would mean nothing to me. I actually generally assume brown eyes- but I don't have brown eyes myself...

It's a bad example because there's no history of discrimination and oppression against brown-eyed people.
