stereotypes
a perception of a person or thing that applies those attributes most commonly associated with the group that such person or thing belongs to, regardless of whether that perception is true. This word has gained a negative connotation and is more commonly associated with discrimination, when in reality it is a natural mechanism used by people to better understand the world. This is why when someone says "hockey player" you think of a white guy, or "rapper" and you think of a black guy, or "city" and you think of things like skyscrapers.
Stereotypes are often good and helpful things, but discrimination on the basis of prejudice/stereotypes often has negative effects.

Stereotypes
An automatic overgeneralization of certain labels, regardless of accuracy; Over-abused discrimination.
Cheerleaders: Vain, slutty bitches who are way too self-absorbed
Emos: Attention-seeking, depressed, angsty teens (Fakes, wannabes, attention-seekers=the majority of emo population these days); Wannabe scene queens; Emo Elmo (in my opinion, bullshit, and an inaccurate judgement ofe "emo"); Cutting (is actually a form of non-sexual masochism)
Celebrities: Over-paid actors and musicians just waiting to be judged and showered with overrated popularity; "Scandalous"

Examples of stereotypes (regardless of accuracy):
"All cheerleaders are skinny, skanky, and anorexic."
"Why don't all you stupid emos just bleed to death, you depressed attention-seeking whores?" (Someone actually said this to me)
"OMFG, like, MILEY CYRUS!!! ROBERT PATTISON!!"

stereotypes
What everyone does no matter whether they think they do or not
Stereotypes, in my opinion, are completely pointless. They're a part of modern society today, and basically it tries to put everyone into one group or another.
Many people try to 'be' a certain stereotype just because they think it makes them cool to whoever else. Generally, I believe if people do this, and admit to being whatever stereotype, then they are not that stereotype as they're trying to be something they're not.
Many people are discriminated for the way they are stereotyped, and stereotyping has become a sort of discrimination in itself.
Just try to be who you are, not what people want you to be or what you think you want to be. Be who you really are. Stereotyping gets rid of individualism and makes everyone similar, which to be honest, is pretty boring
Too many people are not given a chance because of whatever way they act, dress, the music they listen to or whatever else. Give them a chance to find what they're really like and you might find you actually like them :)
The most common stereotypes for people are emo, indie, chav, goth, prep, scene etc.
There is also something called 'ethnic stereotyping' which is like things such as all Asians are really smart, all Jewish people are greedy, all Russian people are called Boris, all British people are either posh or talk live 1800 people =/ etc etc

Kid 1: Lets go beat up that kid cos he looks different
Kid 2: Yeah! He's not like us
Kid 3: He's just himself, not trying to be anyone else, you're just treating him different because of his stereotype, he doesn't do it to you, so you shouldn't to him :)
Kids 1&2: .....Get him too! He's explaining things that we should know but don't as we all go by these stupid stereotypes just because everyone else does

High school stereotypes
These are lables given to individuals generally during high school years, to catagorize them. They range from preps, bimbos, geeks, nerds, jocks, townies, grungers, emos, goths, punks and the infamous chavs. Commonly used today particually in the UK.
People who label others with high school stereotypes are ignorant, have a low IQ, and do not understand the concept of individuality.
