STEREOTYPING

Stereotyping is exaggerated generalized associated generalized associated with a categorizing system, they go beyond the facts at hand and make claims that usually have no valid basis. it is also something that most people find difficult to avoid from doing. what do you think ?

What is stereotyping?

actually this the first time for me heard about that. According to Human Communication forth edition, stereotyping is prejudgment that we make before we know any relevant facts or circumstances about a person or an event.  how the stereotyping related to our society and our thought. for a simple definition is we categorizes other people into a few group based on variety such as age, sex, race, occupation , appearance and physical abilities. 

Basically, stereotyping is something common that usually happened in our society in many years ago. it is something that we can to avoid it in our society. and so do i. Actually, our expectations and our interpretations of the behavior of others will be guided by these of perception. we observe, exaggerate and overestimate, how frequency they engage in the stereotyping we believe they hold behavior. I also make stereotype to other especially when i saw masculine guy. it will make my own conclusion that this type of men that masculine is soft guy. so, that i will isolate from this kind of people as i believe that they will be give bad influence to me. as we see that, that is we called as a stereotype based on the appearance. 

this kind of "perception" become more worst and i do believes that it will be more bigger if we do not prevent this problem quickly. i believes that stereotyping is something not truly right and true because it happened when we think negative to other people and accuse them without any concrete evidence. it will be make trouble when it can lead to  fight if we accuse 
to innocent people. 
even though, we can say that stereotype is unusual and familiar around us, but actually it is something that very common and give bad influence to our community. it is like a bad "virus" that will harm our community in slowly.  so i think that, we need to think before stereotype others people. 


PLEASE STOP STEREOTYPE TO OTHERS
