1. Stereotypes

 

Stereotypes.

 

One look leads to One thought

One thought leads to One facial expression

One facial expression leads to One action

One action leads to hurt

Hurt leads to negative emotions

Negative emotions lead to

SADNESS.

 

 

 The definition of Stereotype = To assume a paticular group carries the same characteristics

 

WRONG WRONG WRONG! this is utterly wrong, to assume this is just to assume someone is something they are not.. firstly lets start with

 

TEENAGERS- Teenagers yes they do occasionally set a bad example but those are those few who cause riots or cause problems, the rest are normally kind thoughtful people, who care for their grandmas and grandads, who look after baby brothers and sisters. Who get brilliant GCSE'S who visit family, who participate in work experience and help out! Teenagers are not what you always think. They can be suprising, but do the public really help in portraying a good image for teenagers NO! They help to add to the many things teenagers do so badly, and the conversations you hear between people who are older than teenagers, the disguisting vile comments. Is this really write? what do you think? COMMENT BELOW !

 

ELDERLY PEOPLE- Elderly people are most likely the people that suffer the most stereotypes, have you ever watched the way they are treated, have you ever seen an elderly person in a que perhaps at the post office struggling to get those last few pennies to pay for a stamp, well do you ever think they may have severe arthiritis, or that man who can't quite hear what your saying at the bus stop, well do you ever think he may have bad hearing because he fought for your country, or the woman who doesn't want to go out , well do you ever think that she may have experienced a gas attack in WW2? NO because we dont think do we. We just continue to stereotype and make elderely people feel worthless. What do you think? COMMENT BELOW!

  • Emma389I agree with the teenagers bit, i think that older people only treat teenagers like they are troublemakers because that was the way they were treated when they were younger so feel the need that other teenagers need to feel their pain.
    I do think that teenagers make quite a few mistakes though, but thats just them trying to figure out who they are.
  • Diego<3*right
    Well the old people have lived longer than the young so they would know the world for what it is, they may have been stereotyped when they were teenagers and so may know what it feels like already so in their elderly life may say 'Stop' but if they don't then that's because they may be scared of the comments made, upset. This upsets people terribly so stop people.
    Diego<3my history teacher once stereotyped me. He presumed I liked pink as I was a girl -.- worst color actually...
    Prince Jang 현승I agree with your comment, but the world has changed a lot over time. So who's to say that the elderly who actually do say 'stop' or whatever are right in most occasions?
    And LOL pink is a nice colour LMAO XDDD
    EmilyClairethe old people do have experience but they have come into a different world with technology and we've been brought into that world, so maybe in some cases teenagers are more knowledgable
    Vishaltough point to argue with.. there are exceptions in each case.. its tough to predict actually
  • EmilyClaireyes i agree, although is that being 'stereotypical' assuming all old people are wise, and all teenagers are dumb?
  • †Beefiedog†ELderly people are wise, they have more knowlage than the young, so they can point the young in the right directions.. So therefore steriotyping is moraly wrong
