Stereotypes

[RedStratocas]

"I'm BLONDE so I MUST be a stupid ditz."

That one angers me the most, since when does hair colour have anything to do with how smart you are? I'm gonna sound like a complete big head for saying this but I'm one of the smartest in my year & I'm blonde. My friend who is a brunette is really dizzy, you say something to her and she says "yeah yeah" then two minutes later she snaps out of staring into space and says "what did you just say?"

So why are blondes supposedly "dumb"?

Because models in general are either blonde or dye their hair blonde, and everyone sees models as being dumb.

Here's my view on stereotypes: If someone is lame enought to stereotype you on your ethnic background or what music you listen to... why do you care what they think?

I'm a GIRL, so I MUST be over-dramatic. - i am over dramatic [:
I'm a TEENAGER, so I MUST drink and do drugs. - would never do drugs
I'm YOUNG, so I MUST be naive. - of course!!!
I'm NOT A VIRGIN, so I MUST be easy. - naw, if i was easy i wouldnt of been with a 17yr old for 11months before i slept with him
WEAR WHAT I WANT, so I MUST be a poser. - well ..
My BOYFRIENDS OLDER THAN ME, so he MUST only be w/ me 4 sex. - is true in alot of cases imo, but not mine [:

Good point, we shouldnt care because people who stereotype are often moronic and have no reason to think that just because you listen to a certain type of music or beleive in a certain religion that you must be a certain thing, but this still affects a lot of people and some people arent strong willed enough to stop it from effecting them

But that's their problem. Everyone has to deal with stuff like that.

Yes but Some people need help, you cant just say that everyone has to go through it on there own because it is there problem, they often need help from fammily or friends!

Yea, and not all models are blonde so why should all blondes be seen like models are? And it isnt true that all models are Stupid either!
