Top 10 Meanest Stereotypes

The Top Ten
Women Stay in the Kitchen

This is so sexist. As a feminist who believes that women should be able to do whatever men can do, this is one reason why I hate Trump. That sexist orange wants women in kitchens.

This is so unbelievable! Women do not only need to take care of the household! Trust me, females are way more important than mankind makes them out to be!

There are female athletes in the Olympics, so you cannot say that men are better than them! It is really sad to see how badly the female gender is being treated.

Pretty much on every women's sports video, there are always people commenting "go back to the kitchen," or something really awful along those lines. Those women have been working really hard to get where they are right now, and it's their dream.

We all have a dream. What's the point of bashing other people?

Middle Easterners are Terrorists

This is so dumb. 9/11 is the main reason why people think this.

There are lots of Muslims in non-Muslim countries who are the complete opposite of terrorists and came to those countries to escape war and famine.

This is completely false and aggravating. I'm in a really difficult position as a Pakistani Muslim living in Quebec. I constantly feel like I'm subject to three different stereotypes.

I'm honestly happy I'm in Canada and not in America. To be honest, Americans can be some of the most offensive people. They get so upset when we mention the "Americans are stupid" stereotype (which is untrue), but then they turn around and say "Muslim terrorist." Muslims don't get nearly as triggered as Americans do when you call them stupid.

Why don't you visit Pakistan? People there are very nice. It's not their fault that Pakistan is messed up. Blame Nawaz Sharif, for goodness' sake.

Asians Can't Drive

I hate this one. My parents are Chinese, and they are pretty good drivers. The only reason why everyone knows this joke is because most Chinese people ages 30 or up grew up in a terrible place with no cars. We just didn't have much experience with cars.

Okay, but have you seen Chinese people drive in China? It's unlikely. There's so much traffic that I can walk between the cars on the road and not be run over. That being said, all races can be bad drivers. I've been to Boston.

Since I'm Indonesian, which means I'm Asian, and my family has two cars, if this stereotype were true, how come car crashes barely happen when we're driving?

Autistic People are Idiots

I find people who make these stereotypes the real idiots. Autistic people are judged by their looks or how they act. It turns out that our brains just work faster. This can work in our favor as we can be very smart at certain things.

Some of the most successful people are autistic, such as Eminem or Einstein.

This one is most present on the internet, where people like to use the word "autism" as an insult. However, PETA also made a campaign that said milk causes autism, which is completely untrue and is just trying to promote their pro-vegan agenda. Speaking of stereotypes...

Muslims are Terrorists

Incredibly rude! I have known a lot of Muslims, and they seem nothing like terrorists! They were very nice and very respectful. Terrorists claim that they're Muslim when they're extremists, not Muslim! This should be higher. Even though I'm Christian, this is incredibly nasty and a horrible thing to say!

Actually, terrorists are not Muslims. It is strictly forbidden for Muslims to kill innocent people. Terrorists go against everything Muslims believe in. They only claim they are Muslim because they think just saying that will get them into heaven, but it won't.

Americans are Fat

I live in Silicon Valley, so maybe people are less fat there. I don't know, but it kind of annoys me because most of the people I've met aren't fat.

I do not agree because I am the new Americana and I don't weigh 90 pounds, so I can't ride the Lunar Loop.

It's the whole America-invented fast food restaurants, fat blokes in cartoons (e.g., Homer Simpson and Peter Griffin). But many Americans are healthy, not obese.

Irish People are Drunk Leprechauns

My friend used to live in Ireland and never once told me that she encountered a leprechaun on St. Patrick's Day.

Actually, Belgium has more drinkers. Ireland is second.

I'm Irish and I don't drink. I'm almost a teenager.

British People are Posh

I mean, anyone can be posh, not just British people. I know a lot of snooty people here in Australia.

Oh yah, darling. This is just SO terribly mean! And so very untrue. We're all ruthless ruffians with little decorum. Now, where is Jeeves with my tea...?

I live here, and I've never seen a posh person in my life! Probably because I live in Manchester.

Black People are Dangerous

I'm NOT Black myself and I see that stereotype is fake. Black people are quite nice, have good smiles, and they're friendly.

My family is Asian and they think this is true. I disagree with them.

Some are dangerous and some aren't. But a lot of them are cool, like me.

African Women Haven't a Bashful Bone in Their Bodies

This stereotype is very annoying, and I'm not African American.

I don't think that this is true. Wouldn't this depend on the woman's personality?

I'm not shy at all, and I'm a woman myself.

The Newcomers

? Trans People are Freaks

Don't be a jerk. You're discriminating against people for being themselves, which is horrible.

How would you feel if you knew you weren't born the right way and people shamed you for transitioning and becoming who you were meant to be?

"Being different means you're a freak." If you believe that, you're a freak.

? Furries are Disgusting Zoophiles

Oh my goodness, I could go on and on about how much I effing hate this stereotype!

I vividly remember joining a Discord server and getting ridiculed for being a furry. Someone even told me to kill myself! It was so mean. I immediately left.

My friends all hate them, but they're not the worst.

Some might be disgusting, but the ones that aren't are cool. I like how creative they are with their suits.

The Contenders
Africans Have Ebola

People honestly need to get their facts straight. Sierra Leone, Liberia, and Guinea have Ebola. Guinea has a large population, and compared to the number of people getting Ebola, it is nothing. All the other countries have either not got Ebola, are preparing for Ebola, or Ebola there has completely died out.

No. If that was true, how would anyone be walking around normally?

The Ebola outbreak was only in West Africa in 2014.

Black People are Gang Members

This is dumb. Some Black people are delinquents, just as there are delinquents of other races.

Anyone of any race can be in a gang.

I know plenty of black people who are friendly, kind, and smart, but people still act like they have a gun on them or think they are ghetto. It's ridiculous. People are scared of black people just for this reason, and it's awful that some people are scared because some idiot pounded into their head that black people are gangsters.

Some black people come from poor places like ghettos, so it explains why they generally join gangs. But a lot of them are in good neighborhoods as well. It really depends on the neighborhood you stay in.

Bronies are All Fat, Sweaty, Unwashed, Autistic Neckbeards that Live in Their Mother's Basement

People mostly think this because of those MLP fetish artists on sites like DeviantArt. Most MLP artists don't draw stuff like that. Some MLP fans don't even do fan art and are in the fandom simply because they like the show.

Do I need to remind you all about that one "duct tape" skit from Corpulent Brony?

I don't know what a Brony is, but that stereotype is very mean!

White People are Racist

This is so stupid.

As a white person living in a city with a non-white majority, I constantly find myself trying not to make people think I'm racist because I'm not! I love diversity.

Ugh, I'm literally a Black person, and I thought I was the only one who found this annoying. Seriously, stop generalizing that all white people are racist and grow up.

Not all white people are racist. Plus, Asians can be racist, Hispanics can be racist, and people of color can be racist too.

Gay People are Pedophiles

Anyone who thinks this is true can go to the underworld, not a person who just so happens to like their own gender.

This deserves to be in the top 10. At least being posh or liking rap are not in themselves awful things.

This one mostly comes from the alt-right. I'm not an SJW or anything, but this one is very homophobic.

Mexicans Have a Billion Kids

I don't think this is true. Octomom has lots of kids, and she's not Mexican. Plus, I'm sure that there are plenty of non-Mexicans in the world that have plenty of children (and maybe grandchildren).

Was Dora the Explorer Mexican? Because if so, then I'm pretty sure she was an only child.

Where did this even originate? This one is just way too ridiculous.

Atheists are Evil

I have an atheist friend. He's pretty nice and he seems to be interested in studying mythology and religious beliefs.

They are not evil. They like to tease religious things (mostly Christianity) but not the person.

I'm a Christian and I don't think that atheists are evil at all. They can be pretty nice.

Italians Have Curly Moustaches and Constantly Carry Pizzas Around

I wish! Then, I'd just hang around some of my Italian friends and eat their pizza.

Wait a second... ALL Italians have curly moustaches? But what about the girls and women?

This isn't true, even though Italians do look good with moustaches and have a charming accent.

Clearly, this isn't true. Women usually do not show off curly mustaches.

Blondes are Dumb and Ditzy

I know these guys are fictional, but I can name a few smart blondes:

1. Annabeth Chase (Percy Jackson and the Olympians) - Take her as an example.
2. Mello/Mihael Keehl (Death Note)
3. Honey Lemon (Big Hero 6)

As for real-life examples, I am a Slovenian blonde, and I got a Valedictorian award - no kidding. What exactly is with this moronic stereotype?

I have always been a brunette, but what if I decided to dye my hair blonde? People who say blondes are dumb and ditzy are the real fools here.

How racist! Disney is supposed to help kids grow positively, not dirty their minds with racism and sexism.

Americans are Racist

I'm not racist. I'm against racism.

Oh, the irony of this statement!

Jamaicans Smoke Weed
Black People Like Rap Music

I like rap, but I'm broadening myself and getting into other genres like rock and a bit of punk.

Some Black people don't like rap. Some like country or rock. But in my personal opinion, I don't mind rap.

As a black person, I don't like rap but can tolerate it.

Americans are Obsessed with Guns

My friend and her family, who live here in Australia, think this is true. In fact, one time at school, we had to write a paper about the country we would love to go to the most, and my friend chose America. On the paper, she wrote, "I would want to live in America if I could, even though it is highly likely that I will be shot in the face while walking around Disney World."

Her parents are really superstitious, and I'm pretty sure that's why she thinks that way. My mum is from America, and I've been there several times in my life, never once being threatened by a gun being pointed at me.

Gay Men are Feminine

So not true, or at least, not always true. Most homosexual guys and girls look like their real gender, and most feminine men and masculine women are either heterosexual or asexual.

All of these stereotypes are mean! Most of them are racist and offend many people. I haven't seen a gay person in my life (only some attention hogs at school who acted gay for attention). But really?! Not all gay men are feminine!

There's a difference between being homosexual and being feminine. Homosexuals can still be manly while feminine men can still be heterosexual.
