My boyfriend and I had a heated argument last night about sterotyping and discrimination. Now, my point of view is that everyone stero-types....we all do it! Everyone! Now who is going to see a girl walk by at the mall, movies, etc dressed in all black from head to toe, has little devil symbol accessories with tons of black make up surrounding her eyes and think to themselves, ''she must just like black'', wouldnt our first impressions be that she is gothic or emo? Which there is nothing wrong with because chances are, we'd most likely be right. It's the same thing with
HOLLISTER giving off the ''preppy'' image
BIG CHAINS & GOLD TEETH teeth giving off the ''gangster'' image
alot of TATOOS giving off the ''bad'' or ''biker'' image and so on.
I mean sterotyping isnt all that wrong because each type of group that a person would be catergorized in dresses a certain way not ALL of them but there is an image for every group every where you go as it is in high school.
