Social labels & stereotypes.

Prep, goth, jock, nerd, idiot, weird, emo, scene, hipster. These are just some of the things people label themselves and others around them as. Like, what is the point in labeling yourself? Is it so you can fit in with the crowd? Because I know that if anything I try to be as different from the crowd as I can... I mean why can't people just be original and be themselves. Think for your self for once. Do what you want to do, instead of what others tell you to do. 

Stereotypes are a way for a group of people who label themselves to prejudice another group of people. For say preps to goths or jocks to nerd, idiots, or weird people. It's all a cycle of prejudice. No one really no one really knows the other person they just judge them by how they label themselves. When people say "that's so gay" they're being stereotypical and rude and quite frankly need to go jump off a bridge because that is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Some other stereotypes are, all blondes are stupid, all athletes are dumb, all people who listen to metal are goth and/or athiest/satinist, asians are smartest, black people are ghetto, white people are racist, mexicans are only good at yard work, all people who wear long sleeved shirts self mutilate, etc. 

So in the end all stereotypes and labels do are create tension between groups and cause hate. So stop labeling yourself and others and all will be well. It's common sense. 

Stereotypes are for the weak minded. Stop the judgement.
