What is a stereotype of your culture you partially believe in?

[NathanDavis]

all of them...

they do exist for a reason, and that's because they're partially true... lol

[Asker]

Yea that's true lol

[Agape93]

White people can't flavor their food. Bruh, you should have tried my mom's cooking. You'd get more flavor from an ice cube

[Asker]

Lmaooo I was just mentioning this to someone when I told the person the day I realized black people aren't stingy with their seasonings 😂

[Agape93]

Lmao so true xD

[DrPepper12]

I can vouch for this. My mom thought a spice rack was for decor in a kitchen.
Proof: I LOVE fresh vegetables now - they are SO good! My mom thought they came from a can or worse a frozen brick from the freezer and just needed to be boiled until whatever taste or nutrition they had been obliterated.

[Agape93]

We might have the same mom

[electromagnetic]

Black people love watermelon, yes

Asian eat everything with chopsticks, yea

Arabs refuse to let others pay for food, yes.

[Asker]

Lol fair enough 😂

[Dongie]

Yeah, but who doesn't like watermelon. That's my favorite fruit.

[DryGermanGuy]

Ve are punctual and ve expect you to be punctual! Ja!

[Asker]

Huh?

[DryGermanGuy]

Read my username. Read your question.

[Asker]

No lie that was pretty funny, being dry is funny which is ironic

[wiltingrosepetal]

[Asker]

[7Phoenix7]

We make stuff funny that's not supposed to be funny lol same with Hispanic

[Asker]

Yea that's true, clowning shit is fun tho

[IslaTheWitch]

I don't believe in stereotypes and generalizations... I believe in people I meet and get to know... individuals... with all their unique traits...

That people from the Balkan region are short-tempered.
I am sorry but many of us are quick to anger.

[Asker]

You included? La bombita, that will be what I nickname you from now on 😂

[Account]

Sure of course I will include myself!
I can get from 0 which means cold af or chill to 100 in nanoseconds.

[Asker]

LA BOMBITA 😫🫠

[Account]

🤣🤣🤣

[HawkPerception]

Black people are better physically on average (faster, stronger) and I feel like they have more primal genetics

Chinese people are strict, loveless parents (the boomers and older anyways)

Indians smell

White people are crazy pychos

There's definitely more, but I'll stop there haha

[avery58]

That we're loud (I'm personally not but many Latinos are)

[Asker]

Yea no cap as close to factual as it can be 😂

[belle_kai]

Both sides drink a lot and this is true. I don't for this reason but boy do they love their drink lol

[Asker]

You were from the UK if I recall properly and you weren't much of a drinker, excluded from the stereotype belle ha

[belle_kai]

It's a stereotype that's true though but not with me. The carribean people and brits love their drink. It's huge in both countries. I don't like the taste of many 😢

[Asker]

There's two reasons people drink, one is more common than the other, for the taste or for the effects, but belle lives by a different code, "soberness is the best drug" 💪🏽

[belle_kai]

I believe it's because they think there aren't any meaningful things to do In life. There are plenty they just don't know any better

[Asker]

Yea that's definitely one of the main reasons, that along with it being addictive, it sure sounds like a strong mix when it comes to keep someone on the cycle

[euniestars]

That Dominicans are lazy, I don't know if it’s true but I’m lazy so 🤷‍♀️

no idea about my other side

[Asker]

I don't believe that, you seemed tired of laziness when you couldn't do anything cause you couldn't walk 😂

[euniestars]

WELL I don't know MAN

[euniestars]

u not walk for like forever and see how it feels

[Asker]

No one told you to get cocky on a bike small stuff *pats head*

[euniestars]

What’s even more crazy is that u don’t even answer ur own question 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[Asker]

I have entitlement to not answer cause I made the question 😌

[DrPepper12]

Dominicans are NOT lazy!! Hardest working people other than the owners of the chinese food restaurant or the owners of a bodega. They SLEEP there!!

[Dongie]

It's like watching Cheech and Chong.

[euniestars]

@DrPepper12 good 😂

[DrPepper12]

USA americans are fat, trigger happy, monolingual, arrogant, egocentric people that embarrass themselves internationally without fail. Its not partially true, its a fact.

[purplepoppy]

Everyone is obsessed with sheep and rugby.

[Asker]

Lmao sheep?

[purplepoppy]

I swear 90% of dating profiles involve a guy hugging a sheep like it was a dog

[Asker]

Lmao wtf

[Anonymous]

Unless your names Travolta, white people can't dance.

[exitseven]

people who are Italian are all mobsters.

[Asker]

Lmao bruh

[Dongie]

Ask Dr. Pepper. I swear he's mafia.

[DrPepper12]

@Dongie o would confirm that but then i would have to kill you...☠️

[exitseven]

@DrPepper12 hahahaha.

[Dongie]

I understand.

[Miah04]

That we have brown skin😱

[Asker]

That's not a stereotype, that's a fact 😂

[Miah04]

I know. I don't believe in sterotypes. Nobody is predetermined to act a certain way. We are brainwashed and convinced to do so by parents and the media.
Sadly too many people fall for it

[Asker]

Nah some stereotypes are real, the reason is only cause cultures are different but that culture between them share certain things cause they grow up similarly because they are within that culture, for example I wouldn't expect Hispanic cultures to share certain similarities as black cultures unless those Hispanic grew up with the black culture, it's just that some of these things are within that culture majority wise so it's stereotyped towards that culture, anyone can do it but some things possibly grew within that culture, for example, hispanics are loud, some aren't loud and anyone can be loud but you can see that many hispanic are loud 😂

[Miah04]

But you wrong. If i took a Hispanic person and put them in an all white neighborhood or black neighborhood they would share those cultures.
Again it is not genetically predetermined. It is taught.

[Asker]

I'm not saying it's genetic, I'm saying it's a culture thing and based on how they are raised but it's known that many people have similarities between themselves when they are within the same culture because like I was saying, if you put a person to grow with a certain culture its highly likely they will grow those similarities as well because they grew with that culture, stereotypes aren't genetic and they werent meant to be taken as a genetic thing, it's all culture based, saying there's no stereotypes would be leaning more to saying there's no differences between cultures when that's obviously not true.

[Asker]

Don't get me wrong some stereotypes aren't true and are meant to offend but there's some that are just partially true cause it's culture based.

[Miah04]

Cultural differences and sterotypes are different.
Sterotypes are saying being black means you are dumb, or a criminal for no other reason than you are black.

Cultural is traditions we celebrate and live by because it's our heritage and we wish to celebrate them and keep them going.

[Asker]

They aren't very different, it's like anything else, there's good ones and bad ones, there's good stereotypes cause they are true and bad ones because they aren't but they are all stereotypes, what exactly would be the difference? Because stereotypes is basically a specific saying a specific group of people share in common, it's basically the same thing, the reason it's got a certain word I guess would be cause it's not factually stated and isn't fully true, which tbh not all people from a certain culture share or participate in the same traditions so what would be the difference besides the fact that some of them aren't true at all, wouldn't that mean that the stereotypes that are true are basically just traditions considering every single person from that specific culture doesn't and won't always have that similarity?

[Asker]

Cause I'm aware some stereotypes aren't true for example like the ones you stated above but what about certain things like black people add good seasonings to their cooking, from my personal experience I can assure you black people can cook some delicious ass foods, I believe there's partially truth to that because I've noticed black people aren't stingy with the way they season their food 😆

[Asker]

I went to a Chinese restaurant run by white people and til this day I wish I spent that money on Mc Donald's

[Miah04]

Seasonings was a cultural thing not a sterotype. It was taught.
So back in the day they gave the less fresh food to us, and semi rotten meat to our neighborhood. We would have to season it heavier, and cook it harder, and it just kinda became a black American culture not an African culture.

But you keep talking about it being taught.
Sterotype good or bad, doesn't change the fact that it means no matter what we are taught or how we are raised we can't help but grow up that way.
Cultures are taught and something we choose to do.

[Asker]

Well yea I never meant it to be taken as a genetic thing, humans are born blank slates and character is built through experience and through what we learn, the only thing that's genetic is our physical appearance structure, even traits and character are taught and learned so stereotype or cultural similarities or traditions, it's all taught and learned, way to depress me with the back story geez

[CubaPirate]

The English are all drunken thugs
