Help answer this question below.
Mexicans are lazy
All latinos are the same
Black people are ignorant
Black people stay on welfare for their whole lives
All Arabian/Middle Eastern People are terrorist
All gay guys are promiscuous and have AIDS/HIV
Jews are cheap and only care about money
Oh, yeah That latinos have a bunch of kids and all live in one house.(People ask me this all the time)
I could go on, but it's making me angry just to think of them.
So many to choose from! In the current climate of the US, I'd have to say the most dangerous stereotype is that "all Muslims are terrorists". And it is SO unfair.
OH AND I FORGOT THE BIG ONE!!!
.....All people who wear glasses are geeks.
That all convicted felons are hardened criminals and will rip you off and/or kill your family and they don't deserve a decent job and should'nt be raising kids ect...
That all black men look alike.
That mexicans are lazy and have to many kids.
That asian people are cheap.
That teenagers are stupid.
That women who like sex are sluts.
That guys who wear thier pants to low are gangsters.
I could be here all day,I hate all stereotypes and more than that,judgemental people annoy me to no end.And prejudice people are weak and small.(sorry,I guess I am getting mad.)
All Christians are ignorant Republicans.
The woman driver one. I am the best driver in the known universe. I have mad skillz.
All of them because to stereotype is one of the dumbest things one can do. I personally always base my opinion of someone on the individual themselves, not an entire group of people, that way it's a lot more accurate.
The welfare stereotypes that portray people of color, especially women, as depraved, irresponsible abusers of the system.
That one really pisses me off.
That a woman who has sex with more than one person is a slut or a whore. It's stereotypical bull sh*t dished out by people who don't have a freakin clue.
That teenagers are druggies and shoplifters.
but anything racist towards anybody pisses me off too.
That a degree makes you smarter/better than everyone else. I have several and trust me, I'm just as dumb as the next guy. I also know plenty of autodidactic people who leave me in the dust initellectually.
white people who pretend to be black and they're totally serious about it. like all that gangsta stuff. it annoys me.
1. Black people steal from stores therefore need to be followed around
2. Spanish people steal in general
3. Muslims are terrorists
4. Chinese people can't drive
5. Members of rock bands are all on drugs
6. Gay people have AIDS
All of these stereotypes are not true and are complete Bulls**t!!!!
The stereotype that if you were born a 'white American male', you are you are considered evil. I happen to be of that group, and I get constant grief because of it.
just because im greek...i believe in zeus...thats so retarded
that all asian people are smart. not all are. expesially the ones that decided to put the ps3 up for $600
highschoolers that put people in catigories like emo prep goth nerd loner geek jock and any thing else they can think of
that all world leaders know something we don't. honestly they're just as smart as anyone, which is why they fuck up as much as anyone.
That just because I'm white I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth and have had everything handed to me.
I come from Mississippi, and that apparently makes me a hick (already stated by.. Anonymous). My dad is German, I am suddenly a Nazi (already stated by.. Missmysyd). My mother is Greek, and now I believe in Zeus (already stated by.. Peternator30000).
Overall these stereotypes make me a Nazi hick who believes in the Olympian gods.
All stereotypes bug me, but the two that bug me the most are that Mexicans are lazy and that all Mexicans are ignorant and uneducated. These stereotypes are not true.
That all teenagers are stupid, on drugs, having lots of sex, are bad drivers, and like vandalism. Granted, some are like that, but definitely not ALL.
Sometimes, I think there are some teenagers who could do a better job at governing the U.S.
And
That all women are weak, dumb, and like everything considered "girly/frilly/cute."
That overweight people are all lazy couch potatoes that can't do anything for themselves. Angers me so!
The stereo type that depicts women are less intelligent then men and generally weak and women are rarely able to successfully combine marriage and employment. "That is a bunch of CRAP".
i prefer analog to digital stereos
I've been verbally abused because of my asian and height factors.
I hate the stereotype that says that Asian women make good sexual object, because of their size. That's NOT they way to view a human being!
I keep being laughed at because they say that asian men are small, in more more than one way, which isn't true. Every man is different!
I was always picked last during the selection of teams, because I was only 5'6" and for that people related height with strength. The bigger you are, the stronger you are. The shorter you are, the weaker you are. Nevermind the fact that I benched 220lb at 16 years of age and ran the mile in 5 minutes flat!
I wish people would keep an open mind on issues. Stereotypes lay down a foundation of predestined characteristics of a person or group. I ask that when you have children, you teach them to see through the ignorance and push through the barriers that have been set.
That drug addicts are not functional.
EMO and todays generation
All nationalities stereotypes annoy the f out of me- beautiful, amazing, fascinating etc.. people come from every creed, country, sex, class or what ever and unfortunately, so do shitty people..
That women are bad drivers- please... most women really shouldn't drive, but men cause most accidents..
That some people tell me that because I am good looking I should have an easy and successful life.. I should have lots of money and lots of sex and that I just complicate my own life- they may be right. But what am I to do, when I believe this is all too shallow for me to deal with?
That people that have animals(pets)have difficulties with human relations/ lack of human contact-WTF?
That Blacks are ignorant. That really irritates me to high h***. That Mexicans are worthless- they work their a**es off to support their household and even through all of that, they find time to have some beer and party a little. That White people are power-driven - there's absolutely NOTHING wrong with wanting everything out of life that it has to offer. That Bush is the worst president ever- do your history project on past presidents and maybe you'll understand where I'm coming from. That anyone wearing a turban or hijab on their head is a terrorist or suicide bomber. That Americans are fat and lazy. The list goes on, but this is just part of the reason that this nation is so divided. I'm so glad that atleast ONE person looks beyond all of the stereotypical b.s.- that'd be me :)
That just because i'm feminine on the inside and would love to show it on the outside,makes me gay!
WRONG!!!!this also stops me from being who i want to be in society,my own kids dont know because they would be tormented in school.
SLUTS.
That Christians will shove their beliefs down one's throat, or that a religious person is a "blind follower" that "needs someone to think for them" "believe anything anyone tells them" or that they are irrational or illogical. As if they never THOUGHT about their faith. Stupid offensive stereotypes that I hear these ALL the time on AB and somehow they never get flagged as offensive. Such a double standard...
When you have the tiniest drawl (Southern: Alabama, Mississippi, etc), you are immeadiatly a hick who is complete idiot living in a broken down trailer.
To put it simply....... all of them.
The one that bugs me most often is the 'dumb blonde' stereotype. I'm not blond, and I'm not dumb, but I don't think it is funny at all.
After that, I think I agree with Anon that the image of teenagers as worthless, brainless, and untrustworthy is a really bad stereotype. That one actually makes me mad, because if you insist on treating people, esp. young people, like that, then a lot of them will start to try to live up to that image from spite.
Some stereotypes can be funny, but mostly, none of them really are. They are often quite cruel.
Autistic people are not affectionate.
Autistic people are stupid.
I hate a lot of them, but I don't like these because my beautiful son is autistic and he is so lovable and just brilliant in the brain department.
Well all stereotypes are really stupid. But my least favorite would have to be...
That all blondes are dumb.
That is probably one of the most stupid things I have ever heard.
EMO I AM EMO BUT THE SLIT WRIST STUFF IS NOT! TRUE!
I hate the way Japanese guys get all protective of the women they're with when ever a foreigner is around because of their penchant for stereotyping, I mean it's not our fault that they're all myopic, bucktoothed geeks, right? LOL
All stereotypes bug me. We are all different no matter what classification society tries to put us in
Maybe That all caucasian middle class could care less about anyone else.
The I'm all right Jack syndrome
Or all ethnic minority kids are muggers and theives
Women are weak and second class.
Living in Australia, I get this alot, and it's worse than any American stereotype I've come across.
All aboriginal people are criminals, they can't hold on to jobs, they 'are genetically comfortable' with alcohol because they don't have the 'lineage' for it (bullshit), that they all smell and should live in the bush, that they are unable to take care of themselves, and that it's their fault that they live in third-world conditions. It's disgusting how ignorant people can be - they see racism against Australian aboriginals as justified.
all of them they are all STEREOTYPES mere opinions not facts
that dominicans only clean toilets.. and thats not true.. there alot of my people who are professional you know..
I got 2
that women are slut's for having sex with lot's of men.
and that I am one of those slut's
The Fact that people from Beverly Hills are snobby little brats, i am a down to earth person who just likes to have fun. I did not grow up with money, wiping my @$$ with Hundreds.I am comfortable, thats it
all gay men are queeny
all lesbians are butch
all Marines are overbearing idiots
all Americans are stupid
I think I have all stereotypes. I much prefer to judge individual people by their actions.
All stereotypes are ridiculous, but a personal one that I deal with all the time is that cheerleaders are dumb and that cheerleading does not actually require any skill. I am certainly not dumb nor am I ditzy. I may have blonde hair, but that does not make me an idiot or a slut. I plan to attend university so that i can receive my masters of business administration. Ugh! Stereotypes are for immature people who are not satisfied with themselves.
That Mexicans are here to steal other's "jobs"...
If you have lived here for so long, you would think that your knowledge of the English language and everything else your generations have worked for, for such a long time could get you a better job then non English speakers unless you are incompetant.
Also that Latin's are on Welfare taking others money, if you were smart you would know that to be on welfare you need to have a residence card which means you have a legal right to be here...
that India is very poor, dirty, cows everywhere.
