I think the stereotype that lies at the bottom of most beautiful woman stereotypes is that their beauty has made their life easier, because they don't have to practice so hard at other skills to win attention. In a nutshell, the idea is that beautiful women are poor communicators, poorly educated (or at least, a waste of a good education), intolerant of others, and very selfish.

Ironically, I believe this has more to do with the stereotype-er, and how they think they have been treated by members of said stereotype, than the actual attributes of people of said group.

At the same time, there is always some sort of grounds for stereotypes. That is not to say that you can count on a stereotype to tell you what you need to know about a person. Every person is an individual, and should be treated as an individual situation, as far as pre-judgment goes.

What I mean is, while a good many beautiful women are certainly handicapped when dealing with a situation that does not cater to their wishes, you should not assume that they are generically incompetent. Most people have skills and talents, it just may be (as it very often is) that your interaction with this person does not place you in a position to really see them shine.

But your question asks for examples, not the vilification or advancement of stereotypes, so my answer is, "They are dumb?"

That they are stupid. Gold diggers. Shallow. Have superiority complexes. I don't agree with any of that, but those are the stereotypes. I truly believe that exceptionally beautiful people face discrimination and isolation because people are indimidated by them, and can't get beyond preconceptions. People will say Brad Pitt, for example, is nothing more than a pretty boy, but I think he is a fantastic actor. People cannot help how they look, and if they're blessed with what is currently aesthetically pleasing, more power to them, but I think they face their own kinds of prejudice.

I have been heavily stereotyped by others, women and men. I find that many men assume I will fall for anything based on looks, when they figure out that I won't (I'm college educated) - i'm a 'dumb bit*h' etc. I find that women assume I'm snobby or unfriendly. I'm actually a girl's girl. I'm all about women friends empowering each other, not pulling each other down over men.

There really is none. In my thought all woman are beautiful no matter what shape, size, or color. You could be beautiful on the inside and that's all that matters. Looks on the outside don't matter much

-They have had less character-developing experiences.
-When they're young, some really like a certain type of bad boy. Not the brooding, neurotic kind, but the bombastic, arrogant kind with spiked hair.
-They are more expensive.
-They get bored when they're not being entertained.

Isn't that funny: I haven't got any. I treat people as individuals. The outside covering hanging off their skeleton is just that.
