Stereotyping is an opinion that is usually inaccurate, often negative, and always dangerous. People without any sense believe in these stereotypes because they don’t look up information for themselves. Stereotyping hurt people’s feelings and may cause someone not to feel good on how they look or where they come from etc. Examples for stereotypes are Black People and Women. People today accused black people for liking chicken, watermelon, and kool-aid; not knowing some of us dislike one of those or all. Women get stereotyped for not doing enough work for at home and all they good for is cooking and cleaning, but they are more specialized in certain things more than men. These two stereotypes are a perfect example to why people shouldn’t believe what they hear.
Stereotyping of such groups often depends by threats to someone’s self-esteem and the desire to justify inequality, and declines when the perceiver is motivated to be accurate. The belief that it is rational to discriminate against individuals based stereotypes on racial groups highly with negative feelings toward minorities and the desire to keep a low status and correlates negatively of rational thinking. The motives that drive social judgments call into question whether people engage in stereotype-based discrimination for rational reasons.
People need to stop stereotyping on each other and think about how they would feel if they were put in as a stereotype. We fail to realize that everyone has feelings and if something is said to the wrong person such as one with low self-esteem that might lead to a depression and that person could be suicidal. Society has us thinking how everyone is or how people should act in the world. In some cases as school students will think they have to have a certain type of personality to fit in with a group of instead of being their own person. Children these days need attention from their person or loved ones to show that they are a unique individual and shouldn’t worry...
