People stereotype because they're ignorant and because they want reasons to justify their irrational opinions and/or hatred. And that's sad because we have so much to offer each other.
There aren't any people in this entire world who represent entire groups of people. Too bad people refuse to understand and acknowledge that.

it's a symptom of racism..
it's like thinking all Muslims are terrorists
or all Black people are good at basketball
or all Christians are against gay marriage and abortion
... they don't think people of a certain race/religion have differing ideas and opinions

They FEAR what they do not understand and they also FEAR what they do not wish to understand.
