If you're a male hairdresser, or fashion designer, you're gay. But many are, anyway.

No, I just believe it's what they are naturally good at. You can be a natural at art, but never have picked up a brush. People are just naturally gifted at these things.
entire races arent though, i know a few black kids that i can run faster than.

Just to debunk your reasoning for a stereotype: It has nothing to do with their genes, but everything to do with their culture and how they are taught Math. In Asia, from Kindergarten children are taught how to use a computer. In grade 1, they have 2 computer classes each week where they are taught the specifics of computer manipulation. Most Asian children are also taught Math using an abacus, either by their teachers or their parents. Debunktion complete.
A stereotype is merely the end result of categorizing the shared traits of particular groups of people. Of course, everyone is different, but within certain groups - be they ethnic or social - certain similarities exist. However, people often use stereotypes as a way of being derogatory about a group or a person, that's when their use becomes unattractive.
ummm...it happened b/c of your post above that was ridiculously immature and uncalled for.
If I really wanted to cause problems I would have stayed in the thread you created, but to avoid all of that "below me" behavior, I left, b/c I knew you wouldn't be able to control yourself and nothing would get accomplished in your thread. I mean think about it. Why would I wait 6 months to do what I could have been doing 6 months ago. You're not that important, not at all.
You act as if you put me out. I chose to leave and have not returned even until this day even though I could have.
It's called being the bigger person.
And to demonstrate it to you once more.
I'm through with you now.
Goodbye.
is it comprehensible.....

Religious people woyuld belive anything ((meanin there dumb) ? Yo, why do people stereotype about a certain type of race/religion/people. It gets me so pissed when people act like this. I dont know but mostly americans are the most stereotypes. In the end, they think there the best and yes its like that in other countries but its said that stereotypes are mostly americans ((no i wuznt the one who said that))."Stereotypes are seen by many as undesirable beliefs which can be altered through education and/or familiarization. However, stereotypes need not be confined to negative characterizations about individuals or groups, and can thus have positive characterizations."
If you do stereotype people, why do you do it? Why do people stereotype each other if in the end, it might be false? And what is spreadin this.
I think we should stop this and just think of each other as normal people!
all people stereotype people in some way or another. Most stereotypes hold a ground of truth, tho they obviously generalize a great deal.
One of the stereotypes and prejudices that most people commonly use is that most of the people you meet in the street are not going to hurt you. I know it's not really what you ment by it. But I think this holds a lot of truth. My psychology professor started off his classes about stereotypes and prejudice with that.

But I don't think stereotypes are so strict. I mean everyone thinks latinos have dark skin/eyes/hair and mainly, it's true but not all latinos are like that, I'm latino and I have blue eyes and light hair. So, stereotypes are generalizations and frankly a lot of the time they are true...
What's funny is that most of the Latinos on Univision look like you, with blond hair and blue eyes. (or they used to; haven't checked in a while).

We all stereotpye to a certain extent - that is how we recognise the world around us.
We all have an overall view of a particular religion, ''race'' or culture.
There is a truth in every stereotpye - its how the stereotype came to be.
However, stereotyping many people do, do so in the name of sexism, racism and discrimination and are done so because people have a complex about anything that isn't like them.
