Stereotyping is when you judge a group of people who are different from you based on your own or encounters. More often than not stereotypes become to be accepted as truths when they actually not be anything close to the reality.

Here are some most common stereotypes that one might have come across in life.

1. All Punjabis are loud!

Stereotypes are all unfair to those people who don’t conform to it. Imagine the trouble an introvert Punjabi face owing to the fact that all around people expect her to be speaking nonstop all the time?

2. Jats are polite? Impossible!

Do you hate to talk to Jats? You find them rude? Have you never heard of the word cultural difference? That is just the way they talk! You don’t need to find it rude.

3. All Gujjus are kanjoos

It is most unfair to link kanjoosi to all the people hailing from a state. Just because most of our Gujju brothers and sisters are successful entrepreneurs makes them kanjoos? Not really…

4.  All women are compassionate.

Just because God gave the woman a womb doesn’t mean that she inherently has the urge to produce babies and be compassionate to all. Respect the woman who decides never to have a child. And neither does compassion make a man any less of a man.

5. All African people here in India are drug dealers.

Just because some people who were caught in drug trafficking happened to be Nigerians, does not mean all who look like them do the same thing. This is racist..!

6.  Doctors don’t have a good handwriting.

Do you think it must be some magic that keeps all the people who have good handwriting from deciding to become a doctor? Or you think they test the handwriting also during the entrance exam? Only people with bad handwriting must be eligible right?

7. Men can’t do household chores.

Household work has been entrusted to women unfairly by the patriarchy since a very long time. In any case, when the need arises, every person learns to do things on their own, irrespective of the gender. Men ‘would not’ do household chores is another matter, but they sure ‘can’ and many even do!!

8. English is the mother tongue of the whole of South India.

Just because they don’t know Hindi, will you automatically assume that they know flawless English? Well, English and Hindi are both second languages down there people..!!
