I would never say that studying other societies and cultures is a bad thing. But I would say that many people I know, who have studied other cultures and/or traveled extensively, seem far less content with where (and sometimes who) they are. And I have seen that discontent cause many problems.
Whether it is dating, food, vehicles, houses, friends, or whatever... when you have nearly unlimited choices (thank you internet), you have to be very careful that it does not make you forget reality or forget to be grateful for what you have.
