An adjective used to describe a person or trait which adheres to a stereotype.
A stereotypical person is one who is the image of a stereotype. It is NOT (I repeat, NOT!!!!) a person who believes that stereotypes are true. Only a stereotypical foreigner would think this, because the stereotype of foreigners is that they are bad at English. The fact that I feel this way does not make me stereotypical, because there is no stereotype that urban dictionary users are xenophobic.
The word stereotypical should be used in a sentence the same way you would use the word typical.

At this point in time, everything can be claimed as stereotypical.
Such As :
-Blonds are idiots
-People with glasses are smart
-Overweight people are slow
-Asians are smart
-African Americans are stupid
-Whites are racist
-Elderly can't use Electronis
And the list goes on and on!
Seriously stereotypes are basically everywhere, a part of us. They are what we first think about people and how most people view others.

Usually the truth about a certain culture, ethnicity, or genre of human life. But we use words like "Stereotypes" to cover up the truth so it can be "Politically Correct"

A statement about a group of people, that is true 90% of the time, but when said in front of the other 10% or a Liberal will get you labeled as an ignorant prick.
"Of course Hakeem won the high jump, he's black."
"That is such a stereotype!"
"That it is, but it's true."
"Ignorant prick!"
"That is such a stereotype!"
"That it is, but it's true."
"Ignorant prick!"

Drew Peacock- " Hey Otto, I knew you were black but I didn't know that your dad was born in Africa! That's cool."
Otto Wanaduyu- " Yeah, he is."
Kenny Naylor- " Wait a minute, does that mean that he has a click in his name? ... Oh I'm so jealous of him!"
Harry Buzzerd- " Not all Africans have clicks in their names."
Otto- " Actually, his first name is Dapopo. I guess the whole click thing must be a stereotype."

Stereotyping is when you judge a group of people who are different from you based on your own and/or others opinions and/or encounters.
Guy 1: I met this hot chik from Hawaii
Guy 2: All women from Hawaii are sluts, I met one yesterday
Guy 3: You're just stereotyping. How can you judge an entire group of people based on one person?
