abolish stereotypes

This is probably impossible.

“A conventional, formulaic, and oversimplified conception, opinion, or image.”

“One that is regarded as embodying or conforming to a set image or type.”

Stereotypes are probably always going to be around. Not that I’m saying that they are good, but it wouldn’t be a stereotype if there weren’t some truth to it. There aren’t too many people who are objective by nature. I think it’s a learned trait. How many people have been young and overcompensate when first learning something? Almost everyone. Stereotypes are part of the learning process and you never stop learning. I think all you can do is be aware, take a couple good-hearted laughs at yourself and move on.

at my school, p.e. is very intense. it’s not just a game; it’s a fight for glory.

yesterday, we were playing ultimate frisbee and my team was losing 3 to 5. we were all working our asses off; we were all running like hell. i spat on the ground because of slight dehydration and a guy on my team says, “that wasn’t very ladylike.”

i was silent. what was there to say to that? so i said, “what the fuck?”

he just shrugged.

stupid stereotypes.

peace.
grow.

I’m sick of people keep telling me how “emo” I am. I hate stereotyping of any kind. Why do people feel that they have to label everyone and everything? What’s wrong with just being individual?
