Are stereotypes and labels necessary to help us organize our world, or can stereotypes be limiting, or even harmful?
kramer

( I don't agree with any of these things, I'm just doing random steorytpes! Please don't report me!)

They do NOT help organize the world. They can be limiting and harmful, for example, somone could say:

"All white people are slave masters." Or "All Black people are slaves" Or "All mexicans are poor" Or "All asians are racist" "Whites are smarter than anyone else" "Asians cant get bad grades" Or "Black people always dance" "Native americans are quiet and shy" "Indians are loud" "Arabs are annoying, they always eat to much" "Koreans make to much food" "Muslims are terrosits" "Muslims kill innocent people"

"Italians are gay" "Asians have very small eyes"

And also, no one group of people is the excact same. We have different intrests, different beleifs, sure we agree on one thing, but we're still seperate people.

None of those are true. They are offensive and they are limiting how are they limiting?

well, let me explain.  A:"So are you saying only Asians can get good grades?" B:"No, not excatly.. its a steorytype. But its not likely for you to get goodgrades, because you aren't asian."

I would never want to be the other person in that convo.

How can it be harmful:

A:"All black people have big lips and they love to dance. Take Janet for example."

B:"Thats not true!"

A:"it is. your just a steorytipical black person." These are all awful things to say. Janet would be very, very hurt.

( I don't agree with any of these things, I'm just doing random steorytpes! Please don't report me! Also, I'm a black muslim :) )
