Stereotype has its reasons. It does not apply to individuals, but it is true based on statistics and probability.

Some stereotypes are not based on actual statistics and probability:
1. Asian men have small penises
2. Black men have large penises
3. Jewish/Caucasian men really like performing oral sex on women.
4. Jewish people are cheap and money hungry.
4. Big feet means big ________.
5. White women have flat butts.
There has never been any studies done on the above so I do not agree with your statement.

SOME stereotypes may be true based on statistics and probability, but some are pure fiction/negative propaganda. Jews are not cheaper than anyone else, Blacks don't like watermelons more than anyone else, Irish don't fight more than anyone else...stereotypes like that came about to try to make the group look bad.

Mm hmm... But stereotype is usually exaggerated.
It's just that some people are different. For example, it's pretty easy to find a black person not predisposed to violence. In fact, I don't think that stereotype is true...
