It's so funny how we stereotype people based on the way they look.
I'm often stereotyped as a brainiac control-freak just because... oh, wait. That's a valid stereotype. Never mind about me. :bigsmile:
There are, however, lots of people who are stereotyped because of their appearance or reputation when they are, in fact, not like that at all.
Any stereotypes you've been placed into that just don't fit?

    I love stereotypes. Yes they are often wrong, BUT there exist for a reason.

    I would hate to believe a myth! Is it nine, then, or eleven?

    The difficult thing about being the best is that everyone thinks you're pretentious.

    I know... actually, I couldn't think of any off the top of my head, either, but I *had* to share that picture. Loved it.

    I'm male with long hair. I look a little rough with it down sometimes. Panhandlers look the other way and won't even approach me, even in downtown Atlanta.

    I gotta say, I like post-prison Martha much better than before she was incarcerated. She seems to have more fun and not take herself so seriously.

    I have had a lot of stereotypes placed on me honestly. People have a tendency to assume women who are big busted are "bimbos" so I have been placed in that category a lot (totally untrue). I live in the South but am originally from the North and have been called a "yankee" (although I'm from Alaska and we had no involvement in the Confederate war whatsoever). Also because I am white and live in the South, African Americans tend to assume I'm racist (untrue as I said, I'm not from here so I didn't grow up around racism against them because there were very few where I grew up to speak of). Those are just a few I can think of off the top of my head.
