Dispel the stereotypes
 

This is a thread devoted to dispelling the rumors, stereotypes, etc. It can be sexist, ethnic, Greek related.

I'll start off:

Black women don't have MAJOR attitudes. In fact, some of us put up a front.

Asian women are not all submissive(or at least my sister in law isn't).

There are some white guys out there who know what their doing in bed. . .and have big wee-wees.

Re: Dispel the stereotypes
 

I'll second that :p

Jewish people DO NOT have horns, contrary to popular belief.

All parents are not senile. Just some of us.

Re: Dispel the stereotypes
 

No shit. (Speaking from Experience. I think Starang will agree)

Sorority girls are not all rich. :)

I second that one, too!!! *Anyone care to contribute to the "Meghan Is Poor And Needs To Pay Dues" Fund???*

Not all wealthy people are greedy and selfish

I would love to make a donation!!!!!!

Oh wait, i'm also collecting for the United Docetboy College Fund....

Why can't I be rich and give meghan money???:mad: :mad:

Fashion majors really aren't stupid.

Just because a person is from the country doesn't mean s/he is stupid.

And just because a person has a Ph.D or a Master's or a Doctorate or seventy-five other degrees doesn't mean s/he is necessarily smart.

Not all pretty people are dumb.

Some girls do know how to change their oil/a flate tire/whatever, and there are those of us who won't hesitate to slide under our cars and start fixin shit when we hear "a funny noise." If anyone needs an exhaust system installed or an intake, call me :p

Not all "chubby" girls are ugly.


(sorry, just a pet peeve of mine!!!)

So, I guess another one would be


ALL JEWISH PEOPLE AREN'T RICH!!!

not all African-Americans listen to only Hip-Hop and R&B.

Spanish people do not live 20 to a house
Nor do they have 10 poeple in a car

*Yeah I know some people might flame me for this but it's like that a LOT around here!!!!*:rolleyes:

Not every man or woman who live in a middle-class or Upper-Class Suburb is living the life. there is a few on welfare.

Not every overweight person is overweight because they eat twinkies and sit on their ass all day.

Big hands and big feet on a guy does not always mean......well, you all get the picture.

:confused:

Please explain sterotype???

Not all frat boys are racist or rapist or any other bad shit that starts with an R.

Just because girls are in a sorority doesn't mean that we act like bisexual women kissing and humping each other on the dance floor(leave that to the. . .).

Not all skinny people starve themselves or watch what they eat or are anorexix or are workout maniacs--

I happen to have a high metabolism and active life... and I eat fast food (granted it's not very healthy) all the time... people are often surprised when I finish a big plate of food, I'm like it's really not that big of a deal! And the only time I went to the gym at school was not to work out but to play racquetball because it's fun.

Not all black people are liberal and are registered Democrats. I'm a conservative (right-center actually) and if the Democratic party doesn't get their act together I will change my registration to independent.

Questioning what the government does at times does not mean that you're a traitor and you hate America. :mad: :mad: I have an opinion and as a voter, I'm allowed to voice it even if its critical of the government.

not everyone goes to the bar to look for love.

Not all people play the lottery

Not all blondes are ditzy/stupid/dumb- I scored higher on my ACT's than a lot of men I know, and I graduated with a higher GPA then most of them- plus I kick ass at Jeopardy. Just because I don't brag about it, doesn't mean I am stupid!

Not all hispanics can speak Spanish!

(sorry but this one really bothered me when I was interviewing for jobs since January. Every one of the interviewers said something like "So you speak Spanish right?" Umm.. no I don't speak Spanish.. I didn't put that I could speak Spanish on my application or on my resume, so don't assume that just because I am of hispanic decent that I automatically know how to roll my R's and understand Spanish Thank you! :) )

Not all Irish people are alcoholics.

Just because you have a Southern accent doesn't mean your brain is slow!
