How can stereotying effect group relations. Give an example of a sterotype you find in your everyday life.
Stereotyping causes a person to view individuals narrowly and representative of a negative image, rather than as unique individuals. If, for instance, if my group views all Germans as militaristic and stubborn, then it would be nearly impossible to work with or become friends with Germans.
What example do you have of a stereotype in your everyday life?
In Myspace I, as a 45 year old find young and old attacking me with Ageism, It is a real barrier in scocioty when a young person cant share thier oppinions and information with an older one.
