I abhor gender stereotyping.

Nearly everybody I know, both young and old, all gender stereotype. I think it's completely wrong.

For example, on another forum the other day, somebody said:
QUOTE
girls are freakin crazy. i had an ex stalk my new girl at her job and cause a scene. wtf why are girls so crazy & complicated?



So, because of one individual girl, you're going to make the assumption that all girls are crazy? Hell no! That's like saying men are all rapists because my sister was raped. If the girl was crazy, she was a crazy individual.

Everybody can be a little something (insert adjective here) at times, but that has nothing to do with our gender, race, nationality, age, and so on. It has to do with our personalities, nothing else. You are who you are, nothing less, nothing more. It's just wrong to make an assumption about a gender because of one person's actions or personality.

yeah okay, it is,

but still even some girls agree we can have a little pms and do stuff

and guys admit things to other things.

besides it not a complicated subject, people do it, but its something we deal with everyday and i dont belive its such a huge problem, all we can do is try to prove them wrong, and if they change their mind, its fine, if they dont then they can screw themselves.

see not complicated
simple.

I swear guys have PMS as well.. except.. minus the menstruation part. laugh.gif I agree, though; well, there's another stereotype - guys think every girl gets PMS, and that must be the reason they're "freaking out." mellow.gif That upsets me. Okay.. getting back on topic.. yes, gender stereotyping is egregious, but just as there are a plethora of other stereotypes, there's nothing we can do about it. ermm.gif
