Stereotypes that DON'T fit you

MaraDiaz · February 2013

I live in the Bible Belt. I am an atheist and Democrats are too rightwing for me. I'd die before I'd vote Republican.

I do like guns, though!

misskerouac · February 2013

I'm a guys guy, and avid outdoorsman, a hunter.......................and I still make time to read to my kids , cook, and clean my house. No I don't have an apron..........I draw the line there

That's awesome.
My dad hunts, does guided fishing tours, and did reno's for a living, a real manly man, but when my sister and I were little he was the one that played Barbies with us and braided our hair.

My husband is a plumber. He does not have a big shed over his tool nor does he expose his buttcrack while going about his job.

Don't worry, my husband has that part covered.
I swear to god his buttcrack is never IN his pants

rob1976 · February 2013

I'm proudly from Wisconsin, but I'm a Bear fan. I HATE the Packers. I rarely drink milk.

I'm a liberal Republican.

I ride my Harley daily, but actually have a technical corporate job.

I wear colorful dress shirts and jeans daily, but I identify myself as "Goth".

I have tiny hands and feet, but big everything else.

I was born with "widow's peaks", but people always claim I shave my head because of my "receding hairline". My hairline has been the same since birth. I shave my head because my wife has a "bald guy" fetish.

I live in Houston, but despise Texas. I'm here against my will.

I have a goatee, but no mustache.

Then he's doing it wrong.

LOL. I'll let him know:laugh:

neandermagnon · February 2013

I used to play ice hockey in defence and got the most penalty minutes for my team for many a season but I'm also intelligent

I'm English and live in the (almost) tropics but I don't go out in the midday sun (although I do have stereotypically pale English skin, which is a good reason not to go out in the midday sun)

I breastfed my kids until they were 2 and 2.5 yrs but I'm not a hippie

I don't drink alcohol but I do actually like to have fun

I combine being a nerd with being a jock/musclehead type person at the same time, not sure if that's following two stereotypes at once or going against stereotypes. Not sure how this stereotyping thing works anyway.

I like the very best of every style of music so don't fit into any music based stereotypes either and never did, when I was at high school there were "ravers" and "metallers" and I was both and/or neither (i.e. I listened to both rave/techno type of music and heavy metal) and no-one really knew how to relate to me because of it LOL plus I used to listen to stuff like Led Zeppelin and the Stones, and also rather liked Beethoven, Mozart, Billie Holiday and traditional Irish music (still do on all those counts) which made it even harder for anyone to put me in a box and give me a label according to my musical tastes (this was back in the late 80s early 90s)

I soooooooooooo don't fit western society's ideas of "feminine" - something about getting too many penalty minutes for my ice hockey team and having a neanderthal woman in my avatar instead of a victoria secrets model.

VeganCoco · February 2013

Ooo I thought of a good one!

I have fake boobs but I don't see myself as vain and being a science geek (and a Biology teacher) means I'm definitely no 'air-head'!

dym123 · February 2013

I'm an African American woman and when I was younger, would have people ask me all the time "How many children do you have?" Not "do you have children?". Drove me freakin' nuts. Still don't have any...by choice.

I'm a total NPR & PBS nerd. I have Carl Kasel on my voicemail (only another NPR nerd would get that)

Shadowknight137 · February 2013

I'm a New Zealander and I have not once violated a sheep.

Yet.

Vain_Witch · February 2013

I'm a cop's kid and I was never a *kitten* or a delinquent. lol

Summer_Lunatic · February 2013

Holy *kitten* this thread blew up. LOL.

I live in Canada and I don't shovel snow off my roof and I don't live in an igloo.

We have two dogs but no dog sled.

We don't hunt our food or our clothing actually.

Yes, I am mostly - entirely embarrassed by Don Cherry.

Yes, I snow board. But I also wake board and I own a tournament ski boat.

I don't say "eh" so the previous posters threatening to revoke my right to use it ... can keep it. It sounds stupid anyway.

I prefer the American national anthem. I mean, who doesn't. It's friggen awesome!

Rixx31 · February 2013

I live in the Seattle area, but am from the UK.

- I don't drink tea

Shock_Wave · February 2013

I know how to properly pronounce "ask".

I rarely listed to rap music.

I never use the N word, no matter who I am around.

I could go on and on...... :P

:laugh: This was as good as MG_Fit post on page 3! :laugh:

edge_dragoncaller · February 2013

I'm married and I do all the cooking, cleaning, laundry.

No, I'm not P**** whipped either.

theCarlton · February 2013

I'm white-American, and I can dance...and I have a diverse cultural food palette...and I can handle spicy food.
I'm naturally blonde, and highly intelligent.
I'm a woman, but I drink hard liquor, not frilly cocktails... and I don't give a *kitten* about shoes or shopping

Mumbles83 · February 2013

Anyone from England will understand this one:

I'm an Essex girl born and bred, but I don't look like I've been Tango'd, I don't have the accent and I don't have bleach blonde hair.

And you don't seem to have those ridiculous drawn on eyebrows either :laugh: fellow Brit here!

Haha tango'd :laugh:

originalkazila · February 2013

I'm a girl who hates shopping.I hate chick flick movies, love watching hockey. I'm a young female security guard - not an old man. I hate fruity alcoholic drinks and prefer a beer or whiskey.

I think I love you............

:blushing: :flowerforyou: :drinker:

MyPsalm63 · February 2013

Because I Homeschool my children I sit on my butt and really don't

That loving the Lord makes me a prude

I sm first generation Indian American. Don't understand why you being a Christian would confuse Indians? Christianity is the 3rd largest religion in India after Hinduism and Islam.

k8blujay2 · February 2013

I am Christian and was homeschooled and I'm not introverted nor a bible thumper.

I too am a liberal Republican. I am a military brat that didn't move very much (My dad was really good at getting extended tours).

Edited because I saw a few more good ones.

d_Mode · February 2013

I'm a type 2 diabetic...and Yes, I can eat what I want, even sugar!

bluefox9er · February 2013

seeings as people are posting any old crap on here and I have too much time on my hands, I thought I'd do the same.

Chameleone · February 2013

I played rugby for 3 years in high school...but I'm not a lesbian

Also I'm not good at basketball....

JUST KIDDING, I'm actually pretty good haha

Serenstar75 · February 2013

I'm blonde, but excel at almost anything I do that requires intelligence (dieting is harder :P)

I'm female, but I don't like other girls, nagging, heavy insecurities, romance novels, most girly movies, or pretty much anything overly female except making dolls.

I'm from the midwest, but I don't have a midwestern or southern accent (my Boyfriend teases because I often have Canadian or northern inflections and pronunciations. I don't even sound like my family.)

I'm a gamer, but I'm not overly fat (I'm a little chunky) or completely socially inept. I hate Mtn Dew and Cheetos! lol

radscorpion · February 2013

I'm English and I love tea, I moan about the weather a lot. I'm polite, well mannered, and I get highly offended by people who don't queue. Buut I'm totally apathetic towards the royal family and I hate football culture with a burning passion.

FITFORT · February 2013

That because I'm tall (5' 10") I must have played basketball in high school. Wrong. Volleyball is much more fun.

^^^^ME, EXACTLY^^^!!!! Well, except for the volleyball. I was actually 39 before I ever thought about trying to become athletic, ha

Yatashie · February 2013

I'm a pop-punk and metal loving, competitive dancing, burlesque performing, hip-hop teaching, musical theatre nerd. I have piercings, tattoos, gauged ears and black hair, but surprisingly little angst. Oh and I am fully employed by a corporation who expects me to come to work in business professional, all while still having the body mods previously listed. I dare anyone to try and pigeon-hole me.
