THEY ARE ALL THE SAME, AREN'T THEM?

Nowadays a lot of stereotypes exists all over the world. Everyone uses stereotypes on a daily basis. Some of the stereotypes show good qualities of a person, for example, a common stereotype about Asian people is that they are good at math and science, but the other are offensive and humiliating. Majority of them are patently offensive for people which they treat. Also not all of them are true. We have to exclude this stereotypes from our life and to live in a consent with all people on our planet. We have to stop judging people on their nationality, race or gender. Unfortunately, stereotypes can lead to prejudice and discrimination (racism - believing that one race is better than other and sexism - believing that one gender is better than other). Stereotypically thinking can also lead to genocide. Stereotypes are one of the most important problems in our world because we use them to give an identity to people with whom we have never had meaningful contact and stereotypes harm the people they describe. We need to realize that all people are different and unique and we need to learn how to appreciate it. It is in everyone's best interest to avoid thinking in stereotypes because no one wants to be judged based on superficial characteristics and there is no such thing as a "good" stereotype. People should be defined by a combination of their personality, abilities and actions - not by group identities.
