Stereotypes

Stereotypes. There are so many stereotypes in today's society, from dumb blondes to asians being good at math and everywhere in between. The real question is, are stereotypes a form of lying? In my personal opinion they are lies. Every stereotype has the ability to be disproven. There needs to be just one person in the world to break the stereotype in order for it to become a lie. In reality, stereotypes only exist because we choose to cooperate with the lie about that group of people. So if we stopped cooperating with the lies then the stereotypes would stop and we would no longer have to keep disproving them.
