Stereotypes Of Humanity And Judging People

One reason why people judge the beliefs and behaviors of others would be the brains natural preconceptions and prejudices. Humans often times naturally forget that individuals make mistakes and believe things that differ from others. This leads to hypocrisy and visualizing what one person does as bad yet if we were to complete the same act, it is acceptable!

Modern day stereotypes and prejudice only help to nationalize the hysteria and make it appear like less of a problem and more like entertainment. This can be seen, specifically, with the current Syrian Refugee Crisis occurring in the United States. Walter Kirn, an American novelist and literary critic, stated that ‘‘Everyone loves a witch hunt as long as it’s someone else’s witch being hunted.’’ (Kirn, Walter). Thus, proving that the Crucible was also looked upon as daily entertainment and the Syrian Refugee Crisis. Society has become more susceptible to hysteria since the Salem Witch Trials because of it’s contentment.

First impressions, whether positive or negative, can play a critical role in someone’s judgement of other people. Stereotypes can cause a rush to judgement leading to an inaccurate conclusion. There are six common errors in judgement that can affect your critical thinking process (Bethel University, 2013).

In today's world there are many prejudices towards society's standards and it affects people negatively especially women. Being attractive can get you anywhere. Having good looks and a nice body gets you places most of the time. It is harsh but it is the truth. A social experiment has actually found that to be true.

We realize this, and think about the assumptions we’ve made, sometimes it's too late, and sometimes...not so much.

This connected world is really curious and changing due to the fact that human beings only want to share what they believe about something in any moment. Opinions can vary depending on the situation, for instance, political, criminal, and educational, among others. The major part of the problem occurs whenever opinions are not according to the reality since people do not research or verify the received information; for example, someone was murdered and people start saying what they want without knowing the reality. Besides, the issue continues when people do not assume the responsibility of what they have said; a good case of what I say are gossips. The world could be a better place to live whether people check the given information or there were not gossips; can this world be imagined?

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, an award winning Nigerian writer, once said, “The problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story, become the only story.” This shows that some fixed ideas of people also known as stereotypes, may not be lying, but that doesn’t mean that they don’t contribute in why people are changing the way they live their lives. These stereotypes, along with prejudice, preconceived opinion’s are ruining the people in our communities and countries all around the world, something needs to be done about it. Negative stereotypes and prejudice shape one's identity.

Judging also affects the people doing the judging in many ways as well. Judging stops a person from really getting to know a person. If there is a pregnant teenager walking around, most people would call her a slut. If they see a younger woman with a older man, they would call her a gold-digger. If the people who thought this had gotten to know the people then their opinions could change quickly. They could find out that the teenager might have been raped or that the couple might actually have a good relationship.

Most people don't like to think, most people won't consider another person's opinion, myself included. Most people's attention spans are too small to read this entire message. Most people also have issues and problems. Most people are suffering. Most of those people also are also formally uneducated. Most people can't understand someone else because of their limited education or immediate and/or urgent circumstances. But at the same time most of these people can also make a change in some way or they can be affected by other variables in the universe i.e., other people. But again really your immediate situation is mostly going to be affected by your own action and inaction believe it or not. At this point in my message I'd like to make my point

We can apply this saying the more you get to know someone and learn about them, the less judgmental you will be to that particular person (and cultures also). Different cultures do their own routines and traditions. Someone that is outside the culture might disagree with some of the things they are doing, but when they learn about it, they can appreciate them. Geri-Ann Galanti did some observations and wrote a book how different cultures went and did medical practices in different cultures. This was hard for them but they accomplished it successfully.

I would battle that stereotyping individuals is neither right nor wrong – it is an inevitable aspect of being human. To state that it isn't right to generalization individuals resembles saying that it isn't right to see shading, incorrectly to hear sounds or wrong to taste nourishments. We must choose between limited options in these things it's exactly how our brains procedure data from the earth.

People judge others very often, sometimes too often. I think that people are getting tired

In today’s society, many people use stereotypes, a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing, amongst these are race, gender, age, social class etc. Stereotypes are essentially used as categorization. Categorization and stereotyping are both fundamental to human nature; helping make the world more predictable. Stereotyping is most often used by everyday people who don’t know a person, so they judge them by how they look, or by how they carry themselves. Everyone, at some point in their lives, has been stereotyped based on different aspects of their person, such as “acting like a man” or “manning up” because I am a male.

A picture tells a thousand words, yet in the present time we use a simple profile picture from social media to judge another person or simple post to determine the type of person he or she is. As we begin to For instance, a person can be quick to judge another person based on individual’s appearance, attitude, and background. Even if they do not consciously or knowingly know that they are judging someone based on these characteristics, many people do judge and begin to develop these stereotypes and misconceptions about different groups. For instance one person can view a group in a certain way, and it can easily spread to other people, and eventually be the only reason that group is known for in the eyes of others In the end people are

others. I myself am judged in many ways. Judged about my heritage and the color of my skin
