steroetype

Basically a form of prejudice. A negative preconceived misconception or generalization given to a particular social/cultural group. What's interesting is that stereotypes usually have no merit. Examples:

1. female flight attendants are easy while male flight attendants are gay.
2. gay men seem feminine while lesbians seem masculine
3. italian or hispanic men have bad tempers
4. germans and irish are alcoholics
5. the English have poor hygene and bad teeth
6. Mexicans eat tacos and Italians eat pizza (both are actually American).
7. Midwesterners are hicks
8. Southerners are rednecks
9. blonde girls from southern CA are "Valley" girls
10. athletes are stupid
11. rich people have maids or butlers
12. black men rap and commit crimes
13. Muslims engage in terrorism
14. native Americans live in teepees, do rain dances and make smoke signals.
15. Eskimos live in igloos
16. East Asians eat dog meat
17. priests are pedophiles
18. ALL corporate executives including CEOs are corrupt
19. pirates wear patches and seek treasures
20. deserts are nothing but giant sand dunes
21. Mormons practice polygamy

A steroetype is usually the result of ignorance when society generalizes people.

Stereotype

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"

D1:Dude, why are all emo kids always dressed in black and calim to hate life?(Sarcastic)

D2:I know right?(non-Sarcastic)

D1:What a stereotype.

D2: Oh you were being sarcastic? I was being serious, because all emo kids DO hate life and dress in black...

Stereotype

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!"

stereotypical white girl

You know you're a stereotypical white girl when you: Love instagram tumblr snapchat etc., you're always at Starbucks, you post pictures of your starbucks and selfies on instagram. You wear: ugg boots, PINK yoga leggings, northfaces, jean short shorts or/and yoga pants. You can't live without: boy bands, Channing tatum, nutella and Twerking. You love: Mean girls, Pretty Little Liars, Pitch Perfect and you can do the cup song. Your name is Molly Amy Claire Emily Katie Madeline Katelyn Emma Abigail Carly Jenna Heather Katherine Caitlin Kaitlin Holly Allison Kaitlyn Hannah Kathryn or any other white name. If you or a friend is suffering from any of these symptoms contact a doctor immediately and on your way to the doctors pick you or them up some Starbucks.

Hailey- "Hey Guys!" -Sent from my iPhone

Sam- "Sorry can't talk I got to post a picture of my Starbucks on instagram and then listen to a Maroon 5 in yoga pants"

Tiana- " I'm busy too, I have to pick up a new northface and some UGGs and then send selfies to my entire contact list over snapchat.

Hailey- "That reminds me I have to go eat some Nutella and then Twerk it off in my PINK yoga leggings"

Sam- "Maybe later we can meet up and watch Mean girls then do the cup song."

Tiana- "Sounds good as long as we can drool over channing Tatum afterward."

~These are examples of stereotypical white girl symptoms~

stereotype

n. a small kernel of truth that lies at the bottom of a pillowcase full of shit.

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

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?
