They're
all the same, aren't they?
Today
people from all over the world think stereotypically. Stereotypes
exist all around us and everyone uses stereotypes on a daily basis.
Stereotypes can be based on race, nationality, profession or gender.
Stereotypes lead to prejudice and discrimination.
There
are some stereotypes about women. First - all blondes are stupid.
This
is not true. For example, IQ of Sharon Stone is the same as that of
the Einstein - 154 points. And JK Rowling, author of the Harry Potter
books, received in 2006 the title of highest paid writer in the world
— bur she is a natural blonde. Also, Hillary Clinton Hillary
Clinton became the first in the history of the United States of the
former First Lady, who took over as secretary of state.
Second
- woman drive a car worse than men. According to statistics, women
less likely to get in an accident due to the fact that they have
developed a survival instinct. More difficult for women to learn the
skills of driving, they know the system of a car worse, than men but
when women learn to drive, they drive no worse than men.
Third - all
women want to marry.
There
is a stereotype that all women think about a problem: how to get
married? But it's not true, not everyone wants it. Some women are
afraid of the idea to be married and have children. Many of them
believe that first they have to make a career.
Types
of prejudice include sexism and relying on stereotypes can have
negative consequences. So, I think that people should get rid of
stereotypical thinking and prejudice and think about the person,
judging by his actions and his character and
not
based on generalization. We should try
to
eliminate stereotypes from our lives.
