Stereotypes are everywhere and are mostly rubbish.

How are those stereotypes created then?

[bennymacca]

Occurs when you try to generalise a small section of the community towards the larger population

For instance - aboriginals are massively over represented in our prison system.

This creates the stereotype that all aboriginals are criminals which is clearly false.

Or that everyone in Elizabeth is a dole bludger. Etc etc

Or that everyone who makes a comment or asks a question that isn't considered PC is considered a racist/homophobe/un-edumacated

Or all aboriginals are petty sniffers
Or all Muslims come from middle eastern countries
Or all middle eastern people are terrorists
Or all people who are different are somehow receiving preferential treatment in some way, shape or form than ourselves.
Or all people who wear glasses are smarter
Or all gay people talk like girls and wear makeup

f..k me, if this forum didn't have stereotypes, where would all the sledging come from?
Now if you'll excuse me, I have some knitting to attend too and my apricot slice will not eat itself...

That's a sterotypical thing to say about stereotypes.

Can you please do it quietly, noise levels must remain at no more than a dull hand clap.

I reckon my IQ jumps a good 20 points when I put mine on.

Maybe that's just 'coz I can see what I'm supposed to be thinking about.

Or all aboriginals are at Petty Sessions*

EFA for the 90s Darwin Mob

* or more likely their legal representatives were in there, if I could cast another sterotype.....

As he likes a post of yours in the AFL thread...

[Grenville]

Veterans get a pretty sweet deal in terms of healthcare etc. And the aged still get their pensions too.

What are you actually advocating for? A raise in pensions and genuine refugees get nothing?

Do you try to be a patronising dickhead on purpose? Or is that just how you are?

Everyone's explained their point pretty well, and they seem reasonable, but you still try to put words in their mouths.

Don't feed the smug lad, it only spurs them on to greater heights.
