Is it normal i am sick of stereotyping?

9 Comments

So many times I'll hear American girls are easy, Americans are all stupid, Americans are all patriotic, Americans are gun-obsessed, Americans all believe in God, I hate all Americans, etc and it annoys me so much.

What is with these ignorant people who say/write these horrid things? I'm American and I'm NOT easy, I know I'm not stupid, I'm not at all patriotic, I hate guns, I am an Atheist and I don't hate people based on what nationality they are.

Why do you think people cling to these stereotypes and convince themselves that everyone is the same? It's really disgusting and strange to me. is it normal I am sick of stereotyping? I don't do it so why do they?

Yeah, I'm sick of it too 15
Nope, stereotypes are actually truth 4

      How is it you spelled America correctly in this post but you spelled it "Amireca" in your last one?
      They were posted within 20 minutes of each other, so me thinks you are one big time fake Ahab de Arab. 10 to 1 you are about 12 years old and a lower middle class cretin with nothing better to do than disparage Arabs.

        Hey there old fellar, haven't you heard of satirical trolling? This kid will be pretty funny when he perfects his material. I predict stand up comedy will get a boost.

          No, actually, I'd not heard of "satirical trolling". I am so very ignorant of "computer lingo" that I spend half my time googling stuff, trying to understand what I read on IIN. There oughta be a glossary at the back of the site, for us ignorant fucks.

            Yep, lingo can get frustrating, and a good glossary would help lots of people. Acronymsearch.com helps me, as well as several "Urban dictionaries" that are out there.

            If I find something useful, I'll pass it along to you.

    I, too, hate untrue stereotypes about Americans, e.g.:

    Americans are free. Americans are wealthy. America is a world superpower.

    Stereotypes suck. Negatively stereotyping Americans is a common brand of humour here in my part of the UK (it seems less common than it was a few years ago, but I'm hanging out with a different crowd now), and I don't think it's very funny because it's just mean (and very predictable). Fat is the most common stereotype, though.

    Have some comfort in your moral high ground and tell assholes that they're assholes.
