[glow=red]Well a stereotype has to be based on something, so in some cases they may be correct (asians and starcraft), I don't think what you are dealing with is a stereotype, unless you belong to some racial group, social group. Provide that info so we know if its a stereotype or not.[/glow]

All stereotypes are annoying and flat out false right from the start. However, the human mind works by using these stereotypes. Its simply the brains way of categorizing things so that you can find information faster. If you place people who think or look the same way in one group, it will be easier to figure out who they are right off the bat (based on previous experiences). However, you might not even know the person and stereotype them before you meet them. That is where the problem lies....
