Third Entries:STEREOTYPING
Stereotyping
could be defined a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a
particular type of person or thing. People likely to hold stereotyping comment
on things based on their own point of view.
In
my opinion, we as human love make stereotyping judgment. We have been
practicing stereotype concept to differentiate people based on their image,
action and behaviour. Moreover, this stereotyping scenario is influence by
culture. However, the belief that we derive from our stereotype point of view
may not accurately reflect the reality. Sometime what we see doesn't as it
seems and it could surprise us in a positive or negative way.
Take
stereotyping people with learning difficulties, for example. People usually
assume that people who suffer from learning difficulties are stupid and it is almost
impossible to educate them. They are also considered as pathetic and incapable
of fully participating in everyday activities, always being the butt of jokes
and also a burden to everyone around them.
Therefore,
there's a saying, silence is gold. In my opinion, these stereotyping must stop.
It is not appropriate to label someone based on what they look.
