Stereotyping

[RedE46Bimmer]

Me too

[cabezzz]

That sucks dude.

Yeah I get stereotyped pretty regularly. I'm 20 yrs old, white, and drive an E46, so that automatically makes me a preppy rich kid who listens to John Mayer and the Jonas Brothers. Even though its not like normal E46's(plaid headliner, slammed, poke, zip-tied bumper/lip that also has been signed and grafitied all over it ) but I don't let it bother me. I like to see people faces when they hear me listining to screaming/metal it gives me a laugh.

This except im puertorican 26 but look like im 19 and own several BMWs and live in a nice gated neighborhood so that automatically makes me a drug dealer, and I live in PR go figure

This.


Plus this.


Plus THIS.


Equals stereotype central.

...and I don't give a FUUUUUUCK!

Typical terrorist, complaining on an automotive forum about being judged.

It's pretty crazy how bad the stereotypes are against anyone who appears to be of middle eastern descent. You should have seen the look on the census woman's face when she came to my friends house to ask about who all lived there, and they said their room mate was Jordanian.

I see your Passat & Jetta and raise you a Scion tC.

But honestly, if you live in America, you will be stereotyped. Period.

Sorry but comments like this burn me up.

I have been stereotyped my whole life for many reasons. Im white, blue eyed and come from a German/Dutch background.

I have been called this and that way before I stretched my ears and got tattoos.

But I will say this, this whole BS with racism in America and stereotyping is the biggest fraud and is overrated.

Go to almost any other country in the world and see what life's like there. Some countries no longer exist cause of ethnic tensions and stereotypes.

Stereotypes suck but you would have been correct if your statement said " as long as you are human, you will be stereotyped period".

I love your food.

As do I,

50 percent of the money I spend when I'm on vacation in Taiwan/Japan is on food.

This except im puertorican 26 but look like im 19 and own several BMWs and live in a nice gated neighborhood so that automatically makes me a drug dealer, and I live in PR go figure

I would take that opportunity to roll by people and shout "SEVEN FOURTY-FIVE WHITE ON WHITE, WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT DAT?!"

Haha, sorry man. I was totally joking. Not entirely sure if you got it... I grew up in neighborhoods where white kids were the minority. I'm probably the least racist person you could ever meet. I actually dislike more white kids than kids of any other race. I just tend to crack jokes about race generated stereotypes because I find it almost amusing that people are still ACTUALLY racist.

Want a hug? I give good hugs.

[implayaz9]

^no worries man..I know u were joking.. I just didnt sound like I was complaining cause that wouldnt do me any good.

[aar0n.]

I **** stereotypes of Asian Americans...

I know that everyone likes to vent and everything, and the situation the OP is in definitely sucks if he is innocent, but some of you are definitely need to suck it up and get over yourselves. That or find a kitchen forum, because I am sure other women love to complain about their vanity issues online was well.

+1, its always gunna be around. Nothing will be perfect. I get stereotyped cause I own a Pit Bull.

He gets stereotyped cause hes a wuss. Go figure.

Complaining and calling the ones that stereotyped us names like rednecks, jocks,... what ever, is just stereotyping anyway.

I was made fun of cause I was the only white kid in my neighborhood so they saw me as rich. Me and my mom moved to a white neighborhood and I was stereotyped cause I was to poor.

this is indeed true. Other countries are worse. My parents are cuban and argentinian and both sides of my family are racist (not my parents). Its extremely uncomfortable whenever they make a comment about it.
