Do YOU Stereotype People? (page 3)

Only a [insert stereotype here] would ask that kind of question and expect accurate answers.

Yes. I stereotype all people as ignorant primates, myself included.

People are deffinitely stereotypical.

I cant help but read them.

Young people have their cell phones and they are infatuated with them.

Gansters have their pants down to their knees.

If you listen to people for a minute you know what they watch on tv and that tells you how they think.

Many people I come across are avid consumers shop to you drop, spend every cent before you make it.

I deal with and meet a lot of people. I find that people that come from the Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Detroit area are

are similar to me and have the same work ethic, even more so the closer in age to me they are.

Stereotyping people is acting on your prejudices and all my professional training in law enforcement says right or wrong

we are all prejudice.

I dont think sterotyping people is wrong, if you dont know who your dealing with, they will own you and take your lunch.

But on the other hand you cant always say what you know or believe or tell how you operate.

There is a thing called political corectness which is one of the tools being used to make

Amerika a third world country.

I guess we all really DO stereotype eachother.

I think humans, by their nature, stereotype; but nature itself doesn't.

If you ever do, do you think it's wrong?

The question is, do people do that to themselves? Although the way people see themselves may be different from how others see them, there is the tendency to do so in both cases.

It may be right, but only in a particular context at a particular time. I remember when I went out in service occasionally a householder would ask "but what do YOU think?" It'd give me pause for a second and then I'd rationalize things in terms of the JW beliefs in some way, a part of me would be thinking though and of course now I appreciate that. So I don't think it's wrong, it's just superficial in nature. And there is truth to the thought that people are often superficial, and they may even like it that way, but while I don't need to have much to do with them I'm not interested in affirming that kind of self image.

I can say that, cus I have a black president...

In

Not on race, but origin: country/culture, sure. And I make lots of politically incorrect jokes. And laugh about those things.

The people who laugh are my friends, cause then I know they aren't stuck on stereotypes.

And I love calling northerners Yanks and Yankees.

Long live the South!
