Do u stereotype people?

Question

i am guilty :-(

Answer 1

Quite a bit, but I take acknowledgment of it and feel so guilty! Then I try to cool it... though it also depends on my mood. Like, if i feel bad about myself one day, I may have the tendency to be over-critical, harsh and stereotypical towards just about everyone. On a good day, when I'm peaceful and happy, I'm more patient and tolerant towards everyone... you just have to learn to be patient and see what the person whom you think isn't all that well what he/she has to give-- which may be more to your liking....

Hope this helped, answered you and thanks for reading! =)

Answer 2

I think everyone stereotypes people to a certain extent. Stereotypes can simply be generalizations about a certain group and everyone is guilty of doing that.

Answer 3

Almost everybody stereotypes people, whether they admit it or not. As for myself, I don't do it in the normal course of a day. I don't project traits and behaviors on people I see on campus or at the mall. But, If I find myself in a part of town known for its high rate of crime, I tend to assume that those I see are dangerous, all those I see. I suspect that either does, or would, hold true with anyone in a similar circumstance.

Answer 4

to some extent, through what i experience every day, in interaction with others, yes. White middle age women are just plain different from young Black men, it quite a few aspects. Ther are still equal as people, we are all God's children.
You shouldn't let generalizations, dictate your actions with others, it is their actions and motives that you should respond to... Human beings like to compartmentalize and catalog everything into categories, even each other.

Answer 5

Yes I do. I run my own business and I can tell if I'm going to get paid or not as soon as I see them.

Like when I go to their house at two in the afternoon and their still in their night gown, that tells me their lazy and could careless about their appearance, as well as they have given up on life and figure somebody owes them for all their hardships.

Answer 6

Yeap, all day, I'm a product of living in this society, I watched society do it to some and in turn learned to do it myself

and those who answered before me just dont have the balls to admitt it in open form, but let them group up with friends and family and you will hear sterotypes flying across the table.....
