I'm an American and everyone says we're arrogant and fat. I don't think I fit the stereotype at all.
I'm also from San Antonio and we've been voted in several studies as being one of the drunkest and fattest cities in America. I'm not fat and rarely drunk. (Okay, last Christmas I was drunk -- but that wouldn't qualify me for any list!)

Okay, I just meant this to be fun and light-hearted. I don't feel any resentment about the stereotype. I just meant it as a share and laugh about stereotypes kind of question!

Some analyst has put together a report based on some statistics or survey. Now it could be true for the city, but not for you as an individual. I would not call this a stereotype, why worry?

I am a wiccan and people assume im a satanic, depressed, teenage girl. But the only thing that people are right about is the teenage part. I don't believe in satan (therefore im not satanic), I love life, and I'm a boy. Kinda wierd isn't it?

Pennsylvania Dutch. What is your image of an Amishman or Mennonite? I'm urban, educated, liberal... Nothing like my great grandparents

i dont have any people. i have friends ranging from drunks and druggies to rich people and can relate to them all. i dont fit into any catagory completely. im a longhair, i guess maybe thats the reason when people meet me they have preconcieved opinions. but maybe theyre right.

Well if I'm stereotyped, How the hell will I know. It for people who watch me regularly to assign the tag of stereotype on me.
Njoy....
