If someone or some group is better, so what anyway? There will always be someone in this world who is smarter than you, better in bed than you, better looking than you. I don't care, as long as I'm happy with my life. I'm not jealous of anyone who is better than me.

Stereotyping always says more about the people who hold them than the objects of their prejudice. [/B]


Stereotyping is heavily based on cultural habits/lifestyle. If many people from whatever group were not a certain way in their habits/lifestyle, the stereotype would not even exist. For a stereotype to exist for hundreds of years and known throughout the world, there probably is a lot more serious observing of the group being stereotyped than people want to admit. Of course it shouldn't be taken as Gospel, but there is some truth to it when you look at it collectively, and that's basically how people are studied in general anyway. To say, 'well it depends on the individual', well of course, but who knows every single person in the world?? Stats or observances are based on looking at people as a group; there can be no other way. Otherwise stats/generalizations would not exist.

If we don't generalize we might as well not ask questions like "How does a woman like their pussy licked?" or, 'What turns men on?" We can say what WE like, but most people are really looking for generalizations when they ask those questions, and generalizations are like stereotyping. And if you never generalize or stereotype, your only answer would have to be a vague one saying, 'It depends on the person', which most people don't really want to hear, because the answer is too vague and boring. Even though it really IS the truth. It does depend on each individual. But people like hearing generalizations/stereotyping. This is why this thread is getting so long! Because people do know while stereotyping isn't based on total truth--is not Gospel, there is SOME truth to it, otherwise the stereotype wouldn't survive.
