If you could disenable any steryotype/assumption, what would it be

[Slam Poet]

steryotypes are how we are brought up. by the time you get to your second year of middle school, you realize that if you want people to LIKE you, or at least pretend to like you, there are several steryotypes that people 'force' you to follow. If you could undo any steryotype, which would it b?

[Alexis Nguyen]

That Asians are little petite pale skinned china dolls. That Asians are smart and studious, get straight A's and have no lives.

[Sharon Renee]

I think all steryotypes are awful. However, the steryotype that most effects me is the steryotype of atheists.

Not all atheists are nihilists.
Atheists don't necessarily believe that life has no value, or that there is no reason to be moral, and that there in no meaning in life.

Some do, but certainly not most. Religion isn't the only place for morality to start, just as it is not the only way to live meaningful life.

1. That girls who wear makeup are stupid.
2. That blondes are dumb (I'm not blonde, but still, hair color has no link to how smart you are.)

[Paige Danielle Hosley]

That all blondes girls (let's face it, no one calls a blonde boy dumb) are dumb...I'm not one to get up on my soap box *points to dusty soap box in the corner*, but I find it slightly discouraging when people simply asume I have nothing of value to say. I'm not some cheerleader whose pissed at her boyfriend for calling her a bimbo, I like a good dumb blonde joke as much as the next person, but I don't like being judged on something I was born with....so there

[Lauren Smith]

hey: I'm blond and a straight A student. so suck it punks!

[Rose]

Amen! From a blonde with a 4.0 :)

[Lauren Smith]

Just because someone really likes something doesn't mean they're obsessed and really freaky people that you should run away from and never talk to. Real friends don't care about how weird you can be at times. They'll support you and back your craziness up with their own weirdness. Or maybe that's just my friends. But in my opinion, yeah.

[Lauren Smith]

shups. unfortunately people just don't get this stuff...but thank you for getting it.

[Zita Rouge Segreti]

ditto.

I hate being shunned because Roman Catholics "are terrible people who aren't open minded and hate individuals"

I AM not Like that. I don't push my beliefs/view on others.

[Emily]

That is a good one, i am so sick of people always saying that, or making statemts about how Catholics are terrible people and how all priests rape kids

[Hayley]

Personally, I'd like people to stop believing just because I'm blond means I either a. am dumb, or b. a whore. (pardon my French)

But on a larger scale, just because I'm a conservative Christian doesn't mean I look down upon you for having different beliefs and that I won't listen.
