Stereotyping

People assume I'm posh because I like good food and take time preparing it, plus the fact that my parents have a cleaner at home doesn't help :o
 
I work in an IT department, suffer from a mild form of acne and am pretty thin... I'm a bloomin' walking stereotype!
 
I get stereotyped as either a person in to some sort of heavy music or a hippie. Don't have a problem with either of these, the second's probably more accurate, but the first is more common - long hair, dark clothes, beard, guitarist, etc.

I'm not too fussed, I find it quite amusing when people tell me what their initial preconceptions of me are. Turns out I'm actually quite a normal guy :p
 
Blonde = stupid
Scottish = Like haggis and other preconceived ideas of what being Scottish means, including that i say "troosers" instead of trousers. Although i suspect this was DRZ taking the ****.
Finally one i can't really put my finger on is why people never expect me to say 'archaeology' when they ask what i am studying at uni.

Because nobody under 50 is an archaeologist? ;)
 
People dont belive me when I say im a lifeguard, just because im a big guy and look nothing like the hoff does not mean I cant do my job :mad:
 
Not a stereotype per se, but I've been mistaken for being Italian\Portuguese\Iranian based on my skin colour (unfortunately they're all way off the mark).
 
I get stereotyped all the time, people always ask me if i eat pork, like chutney, how olds me kids (i'm less than 30 by a good bit mind u!), are my parents strict, whats the latest bollywood films, am i a doctor etc.. they get surprised as hell when i tell em i'm of Caribbean descent, love ragga, reggae, rap and eat mostly pepperoni and am in love with Italian food and women, have no kids, not married, smoke, drink.. blah blah... :mad:
