 Stereotype is bla bla.
BAD

Social groups typically are

associated with both positive
GOOD and negative stereotypes. For
example, women are positively
stereotyped as warm but
negatively stereotyped as weak.
 POSITIVE
STEREOTYPE
Any stereotype of any particular
group of people that is perceived as
more positive than negative (for
example, the stereotype that
all Asian people is good in math).
Of course though, it should be noted
that not all groups of people fit
positive stereotypes most of the time
and that they are bound to fit the
more negative ones, so it would be
best to not stereotype any group at
all (no matter how good or bad the
stereotype may be).
