Stereotyping

Recognize the word? Of course we do. Because most of us at most of the time do that. Believe me, we do! 

"Stereotyping is exaggerated generalizations associated with a categorizing system, they go beyond the facts at hand and make clams that usually have no valid basis. It is also something that most people find difficult to avoid from doing."

No matter how I want to reject this statement, its seems even clearer that we often being prejudice towards certain thing. Thus, I am strongly agree with the statement above. It is true that when we oversimplified or offer standardized image of a person just because of the common behaviour of other people.

Take obese people as one of the example. First thing that come across our mind would be the size of the body. And then we will start to generalized them with statements and questions in the head. This type of people must be very lazy to work out! How they used to eat? How much portion they have taken? And plenty more. We tend to categorized them into the size and standardized them based on the natural or habitual of an obese person.

Well, technically the truth is what is right but what is right is not nessecessarily the truth. We cant simply perceive what we see and believe what we view. 

But still, no matter how we realize this matter, we cant avoid ourselves from stereotyping. Its just..us!
