Do you fit into any of the stereotypes of your ethnicity/race? What is your race/ethnicity and which are the stereotypes that describe you? As my ethnicity is a crazy mish-mash I will first have to figure out which ethnicity I am and then try to answer my own question, but I will have to leave it blank for now.
Ha! That's drawing him out... But to answer, yes. I'm a walking, talking stereotype. Demographics matter.
No. Everyone is on his own here. Just list your race/ethnicity and some of the common stereotypes that comes with it and how well they fit you.
Mexican Good at construction - Yes Good at lawn care- Yes Machismo- Absolutely NOT! I get very annoyed by the type, and they dress to embarrass themselves Misogynist- Hell no Hispanic men drink a lot- Yes, most of us really do. FOr god sakes we use a childs birthday party as an excuse to totally empty the 3 closest gas station of all their beer. But I have cut down a ton, only drink socially and do not get drunk anymore. gangbanger- I hate them all hispanics support illegal immigration- Not this one, lets warm up the buses and strengthen border security
Stereotypes are stereotypes. If I went by PC standards I'd call myself a Mexican American , so this qualifies.
You forgot lazy! Are you lazy? - - - Updated - - - You haven't checked the name of the thread too closely I can tell.
Dumb Polak? Absolutely not. That's just some thing that the Liberal Jew Norman Lear pulled out of his butt. How can it be true? Poland scores one of the highest educational PISA score results in Europe as we speak.
100% Ashkenazi Jew. Good with money? eh. smart? I have my moment. doesn't drink much? yep. doesn't do drugs? yep. insecure and lack of confidence? not for 10 years or more. doesn't exercise? I exercise at least once a week. doesn't like guns? I own a gun. super-Liberal? I have several "Conservative" political/social views. loves Israel more than America? haa!!! funny stuff. afraid of conflict? I have been known to curse up a storm, at work, infront of everyone. And I've threatened several people with violence after they acted like jerks.
Let's see... English born, Australian raised, Irish mother, English father. Therefore I am a drunken bum who is repressed and class conscious as well as being a loudmouth especially when I travel to other countries. Jeez, sounds about right!
Native American... drunks, only live on reservations, we hate all team mascots Danish...don't know of any, unless its the same as Swedes...stiff, cant dance ect...the epitome of whiteness. lol Smidge of German and Irish...more drunks, Nazi
I never understood this stereotype of Mexicans. How can they be lazy when they usually work harder, especially the illegals, to earn below min wage under the table and provide for their families, usually out in the fields? Is it because of the siestas? I would love for one right now.
I am a mut of European decent. So I am hard working. Can drink large sums of alcohol and be fine. Good with mechanical jobs. Take care of my family.
I'm a 29 year old white dude stationed in Europe. I get all the funny jokes from these guys. The most common one this French black guy told me last month was: White people tell the cheesiest jokes. Then I caught myself yesterday telling this joke to my friend: How do you get Pikachu on a bus? You poke em on!
