Ya know what really rattles my cage? Stereotypes. I despise how people generalize according to outward appearances. "She is a blonde so she must be stupid." "He has glasses so he must be a nerd." "She wears a lot of makeup so she must be a hooker." Small minded comments like this really steam my clams. Even worse are the ones that involve race. "He is black so he must be a criminal." Or "She is middle eastern so she must be a terrorist." Especially gender ones, even ones as little as "Females are good cooks." Or "Males are all strong."
No. Not everyone is what you think they are. It runs so much deeper than that. People are complex and unique and can not be molded into one specific category. Stereotypes are for ignorant and small minded people who have nothing better to do than judge others.
So please don't stereotype. Don't conform and don't judge others. Just let them be them and just be you.
Kisses,
