Just ignore him, he's an attention seeking brat.

I'm an emo, inside, but not outside y'know. :[
I know if I was like that, be who I really am, I'd have no friends whatsoever, so I just almost make up who I am.

I think it is terrible when people stereotype. I was horrified to feel that somebody who I walked home with thought bad of my cousins because they are half Jordanian. :(

Yea but you should get to know them first you shouldnt just say oh i bet she's dumb cos she is blonde

I do admit, I do stereotype, but not on race. I can usually tell what somebody is like by their face. It's weird, but true.

thats really old though, not many people who see blondes think they are dumb anymore..it's more stereotyping on what people wear nowadays.
& you cant get to know everyone you see, so it'd obvious people are going to stereotype on what people look like, from maybe just seeing them at the bus stop. i dont particulary think its right but we've all done it at least once.

You shouldnt have to worry about what you look like, weather it makes you look emo or whatever, that is what stereotypes do though they make people hide who they are!

i was just using that as an example but just as much as people stereotype blondes, your right they stereotype people who wear burberry are chavs.

And it happens everywhere alex which is why we should try not to stereotype people. I find that i am mostly stereotyped at school but it also happens in the streets around where i live, people call me a goth just because i wear black, but why should they think this and even if they do they shouldnt have to shout it at me in the street!
