Stereotyping Speech

Stereotyping is a common attitude that has been adopted by many people. Stereotyping means to generalize a whole group of people (nationality, gender, religion, ethnicity, race etc) based on one or few experiences or having preconceived notions and opinions about people without sound reasoning. It is like assigning standards to people based on their gender, race, ethnicity and religion.

wise woman once said “Stereotypes are fast and easy/ but they are lies/ and the truth takes time.” Deb Caletti. This quote follows stereotyping by saying that they are fast and easy, but what people tell them are not always true. That what people say about someone doesn’t always mean that they have to believe what they are saying. People don't defines them, the only person that define them is themselves. Stereotyping is a big problem in books, movies, and even the world.

Stereotyping wasn't a big problem when living in Texas. Living in Wisconsin was a whole different story. People find it offensive, and it could end up being racist. Always remember what is being said to others and how careful one has to be. Even if they know what people are saying just for fun and no harm is intended, people can take it to another measure. Nothing shouldn't be done period and we shouldn't allow it.

“Almost one in two (48%) Australian males, face an issue that they don’t want to talk about, the issues of manhood, masculinity and respectful love” – Australian Institute of Health and Welfare.

The next article I examined was from NBC News, this article toyed with pathos right from the get go. The headline is “Trump Critics Dismiss New Immigration Order as Repackaged ‘Muslim Ban’” (Arkin). That plays with emotion by adding the idea of “Muslim Ban” because everybody has his or her own feelings and ideas within the connotation of that word. It also becomes a factor, because that is what the first immigration ban was dubbed before it was repealed, which shows an immediate sign of a more democratic bias. The article will go onto to convey ideas that makes the idea that this ban is a bad thing, and has religious prejudice within the order. The logos of the article is true, but gives a left-wing approach to the situation, which could affect

In the novel Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson used stereotypes throughout the book. Stereotypes the school into groups Like the Jocks, Cheerleaders, marthas and goths, I see those same stereotypes in the movie Mean Girls.

A large portion of the world’s older generation possesses the mindset that smartphones are decreasing our intelligence. This view has been held for years and is understandable, but Daniel T. Willingham presents a different idea in his article “Smartphones Don’t Make Us Dump”. Daniel T. Willingham is a professor of psychology at the University of Virginia and is the author of Raising Kids Who Read: What Parents and Teachers Can Do. He gears his article towards the parents of the future generations; correcting their misconceptions and inserting a proper one using logos.

In the novel Speak Laurie Halse Anderson uses stereotypes throughout the book. She stereotypes the groups like the Marthas, they consider themselves followers of Martha Stewart, and the Jocks. I see these same stereotypes all the time.

Depressing books are dumb. I don’t like reading them. Couldn’t we learn better from reading books that have more hope? Art makes no sense. Stereotyping really isn’t fair—I don’t understand why anyone would do it.

Stereotyping is one of the most common and dangerous issues that happens in America. The activity we did and the video we watched showed the same fact. During the activity we get to write one thing and the rest class got to put down something stereotypical based on that one fact about the person. For instance one person wrote saying that she always been a fashion member and people said things like she cares about people’s opinions, she’s dumb and so on. People tend to take one story line and come up with their own conclusion. Like how everyone assume that all black guys are good in sports or that they are marijuana or cocaine addicts, or that every single of them never had any relations with their father. Although number of black men had left

Although there are people in the world who judge intelligence and character based on skin color we believe that everyone is the same on the inside and have similar if not better ideas than the rest of the world. If someone thinks that a certain group of people has less of a value than any other group just because they are different than it

According to the new FBI numbers, 47 percent of hate crimes in 2014 were motivated by race, over 20 percent by anti-LGBT animus, and approaching 19 percent by religion (Potok 2). The use of hate speech is a precursor to more serious crimes that greatly impact the United States, especially within politics. Hate speech should be seen as a precursor to more serious crimes and violence because hate speech causes society to be more accepting toward certain violent behaviors and hate speech allows for negative stereotypes to be used against marginalized groups of people.

According to the new FBI numbers, 47 percent of hate crimes in 2014 were motivated by race, over 20 percent by anti-LGBT animus, and approaching 19 percent by religion (Potok 2).

Here it is, college, a new stroll down the pathway of life. This should be an opportunity to show more of which we are. College has been said to be a process of coming into our own. It's not like high school, there is less pressure of conformity, or is it too late? I believe that by high school graduation we've already conformed based on what others tell us; in high school we have our futures already laid out.

Hi Shambria, I agree there are many people who view certain groups or individual in a negative way. Much of this is do to the transmission of racism and other forms of prejudice which is instilled throughout their lives. Sadly racism is something that continues to plague our society creating conflicts and inequality that is based on false presumptions which often leads to stereotyping. These set behaviors and views can lead to various forms of discrimination within society. Which can lead to unbalanced society which reduces educational occupational opportunities for certain population. Generalizing is never is acceptable especially when it leads to discrimination which can hinder growth and life chances for individuals and their families.
