Is it normal i judge people stereotypically

When around people I tend to judge them stereotypically. Not to say I judge a Jew stereotypically. But if I find someone who fits the stereotypes I will label them Jew. Or a White guy who acts ghetto I will label black. A guy who I think acts gay I will label gay, regardless of what they say.
Also I believe people don't change. And I don't believe in giving people second chances once they do something to betray my trust.

Is this normal?

    Stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason. It's because they're for the most part, true. Though, as long as you keep your judgement to yourself, you should be alright. If you don't, however... well, then you're just begging to get shot.

    I understand, and over time, we as humans have developed to label things as dangerous, or unpleasant, however, think about what you are doing since you could be seriously hurting someone.

    People can't change?? BULLSHIT

    Your life, your rules, no one can tell you how you should judge and consider people around you, you're the only one who can decide what and who your friends are to you. You probably wouldn't be my friend though, but who knows, anything's possible.

    labelling is normal, we developed it to survive so we know who is a friend and an enemy also. But stereotyping? Most arent true okay. Despite what a lot of people say, ESPECIALLy about gays and all that. Still, youll learn to stop being so stubborn soon i guess.

    We are all judgmental and judge people according to our images of how a certain person (stereotype) would act. I like to think of it as a defense mechanism that helps us make decisions as to how we are to approach others.

    Our labelled stereotypes on others can be totally wrong or right but we should know that people are shades of grey and can be molded differently to produce different reactions.
