Stereotypes - Comments

Only you can truly decide who you are and who you are going to be, no one can make up your mind for you. however, they can influence.
Stereotypes... it's such a big topic to discuss, and I don't just speak for myself when I say I've been labeled as well and that people have probably thought nasty of me, even though I think I turned out okay. Like, "for the birds said" People are afraid of what is different from them... and that is so true it's unbelievable. We are all scared. If you take a look at your family, and friends... what is their skin tone? Do they speak with accents or what you would define as normal? and who among them have you once labeled? We all grow up being accustomed to things of who we should talk to and how we should act. it's really no ones fault for the way things turned out because people are always going to have opinions and ideas; the seven deadly sins =P it's what makes us human and not a tree or a bird you know [catch my metaphor?] any who before I go and make everyone tired of reading this crazy long comment, Ima peace =D

Hey just from a stereotyped point of view here. I get where you guys are coming from but that doesn't help the people who feel like crap because of how they are labeled. I know. It hurts for people to assume things about you that arn't true.

We've come a long way.
There's still racism and probably still forms of segregation, but stereotypes are something that will never go away. People are afraid of what is different from them.
