So, you're mad at your teacher for using stereotypes and seem against them, yet you're pushing for us to dish some out? Make up your mind.

I've been hearing this one a lot lately... Filipino women are stuck up, mean, and very high maintenance.
NOT TRUE. |

QUOTE There are so many stereotypes nowadays. My teacher was stereotyping Asians this morning and I got all annoyed. I can name three off the top of my head: Asian people are smart, ( ) Jews are cheap, and all Puerto Rican people play baseball. Know any more? They give me a laugh, as ridiculous as they are. Okay, first off, I'm not cheap.  I love spending money. QUOTE Irish people are drunks..? Secondly, I'm not drunk. Hehe. Okay, okay. Yeah, I think dishing out sterotypes is not really cool. Because they might actually....you know, offend someone. Unless you're sterotyping something that you happen to be apart of. Like...I'm irish and jewish. Which is an odd combo. I know. And I say something funny about those. But I'm not going to. Sorry to spoil the fun. |

o.0 Huh? I thought you didn't like stereotypes. Well I don't know many because its my friends who say em. I just laugh along with them. As far as stereotypes go, it's all a joke. It's a nicer way of "labeling." Labeling/stereotyping ppl is a way of life. We can't help it. So it's better just to take things as a joke.

ok, so its not a sterotype, but it was a bit racist. we had to do this project for lit on the scarlet letter and make our own letter on our sins, and we had to present about the symbolism of the way our letter looked today, and my friend was explaining why hers was for anger and why black and red were usually anger colors. she said red was for the color you turn when youre mad, and then someone asked what black wasfor then, because people dont turn black, and she said black people do, and the one black girl in the class got slightly annoyed but the teacher was laughing so that either completely made or killed her grade

Asians are smart and know TONS about computers? Sorry.. That's my stereotype. I'm horrible. But all the Asians I've met are these things. *Tries to think differently*

Hm.. i find it funny even when it's against me. I mean, I get slightly annoyed at school because this guy who sits next to me in math always says Im good at math only because I'm asian.
- All asian people are bad drivers. - Blonds are stupid. - Cheerleaders are preppy, ditzy, and snobby. |

QUOTE(stephinika @ Nov 10 2004, 7:59 PM) - all people in band are geeks oh, but we are. were just not your stereotypical geek (ok, that didnt make much sense, but hopefully you know what i mean...) were geeks because band overwhelms and its all we can talk/think about, so while we may not be geeky people we are geeks in our fondness for band |
