Senior citizens as grouchy and unemployed individuals as lazy are two examples of people who do not fit common stereotypes. As generalized simplifications based -- in its least obnoxious manifestation -- upon some facts observed regarding some people, stereotypes may be both inaccurate and insulting, as in the case of senior citizens who may be portrayed as lovable grandparents or sour neighbors.

Why do all teens have to be in a stereotype?
Many teens follow stereotypes to fit in with a certain group of people. It's an easy way of getting along in life for teens especially in high school, secondary school, ect. There are tonnes of stereotypes and cliques and everyone is bound to fall into one at some point. Sometimes, if you don't go in a clique, it's very difficult to get by because you'll always get picked on and be alone and have no one to turn to. So, it's up to you whether you want to be or not.

Why are stereotypes damaging?
They should be stopped because a lot of people get offended by stereotypes, exspecially if the person is in a bad one. People commit suicide because of stereotypes and people always get bullied for being in a certain type of group. People make fun of people who aren't like them and it's pretty bad, people hurt themselves and think they are a piece of crap just because another stereotype group says things about them and makes fun of them. Stereotypes just put a lot of people down and not a lot of things are good about them.

What are stereotypes of autism?
Well, there are few stereotypes of autism. One common stereotype is the autistic savant - many people think that every autistic has some area of incredible talent and is otherwise low functioning, when in fact only a few autistics fit that profile. Many disabilities, autism included, seem to have paired stereotypes of mild and severe. In autism, these are the low functioning and high functioning autism stereotypes. Rather than recognizing that most autistics are medium functioning, many people seem to think there are two distinct subtypes of autism - the nonverbal, self-injurious person in diapers; and the highly intelligent, socially awkward person with mild impairment. A few people, confused by the description of 'lack of empathy', think that autism is similar to psychopathy. In reality, autism is a failure of understanding, not caring. Incidentally, autistic repetitive behaviors are sometimes referred to as 'stereotypies' or 'stereotypical behavior'. This consists of actions like rocking back and forth, hand-flapping, lining up toys, etc. It's unrelated to the usual meaning of stereotypes.
