A simplified description unfairly applied to every person in the same category is called a stereotype. Stereotypes generalize traits, behaviors, or characteristics to all individuals within a group, often leading to misconceptions and bias. This can perpetuate discrimination and inhibit understanding of individual differences within that group.
