What do I think about stereotyping?




Okay, firstly what is stereotyping? Stereotype means the first thing that came into your mind when you look at something and you tend to think them that way. Whenever we don’t have a good understanding of something, then we tend to make assumptions. Stereotyping has become a way for them to convey their dislike towards something. Malaysian loves to stereotype everything whether the bad or the good one. For example, men who are not into sports are termed as gay or all blonde women are dumb. Stereotyping can makes one ignore the diversity of groups.


In my opinion stereotype is not a good thing. People tend to judge other people with negative perception (most of it) without knowing the real thing. This can lead people to fight with each other. But if you are stereotyping in a positive way then it is okay. For example, Asians have high IQ’s. They are smarter than most in Maths and Science. If you are stereotyping something good then it’s okay for you guys to say something. If it is not, then you guys just need to keep quite or keep it to yourself. This can prevent you guys to fight with people around you and can lead you guys to peace and happiness. It is such a waste if you fill your life judging people with negative things. Everybody wants to live their life happily ever after right? You guys are the one who create and pattern your life so, think wisely before you do something.
