What do you think of people who stereo-type?

I cant stand people who stereo-type and say things abt others just bc its something their not into. Why exactly are people like this? I would like to hear you voice your comment on this subject. I recently asked a question abt a certain anime…and a person replied “ya’ll are nerdy, anime is stupid” This may not have been said exactly as I posted it, but you understand what im saying here. Anyhow,what is your choice of words on this matter?

Answer #1

Kinda playing devil’s advocate here but EVERYONE stero-types to some degree. And if you say you don’t well your lying. Never met a person yet who doesn’t make some judgments about a person just by looking at them. I guess the question then comes down to how much you stero-type a person.

Answer #2

stereo-type isnt a word used much in the UK… we tend to just call them prats

Answer #3

I think sterotyping is so wrong people shouldnt sterotypr other people because of how they look they should get to know them first

Answer #4

I agree. Everyone stereo-types people to some degree. Society as a whole is to blame for stereo-types to begin with and after that it’s simple human nature to want to classify people into groups by their personality, looks, sex, religion, etc. No stereo-type is 100% true 100% of the time and as long as people realize that and don’t let their snap judgments over rule their common sense, it really isn’t harmful.

Answer #5

wow im wit you on this one I hate it when people do that like they have some right to do that for example I guess I look emo (I really dont think so) but some people at my school will go up to my sister asking if I start cuttin… people who are emo dont always cut! there not always deperssed I mean other people who get depressed arent emo. like my ex she got all depressed and shes not emo. I guess you would put her in the jock place o an thats another thing people think that jocks are all stupid but I can tell you that all the jocks that I no are really smart an they make me feel stupid

ok imma stop now :)
