Stereotypes Quotes

We must break down racial stereotypes that imply white people have smaller penises Picture Quote #1

I believe that I have created a lot of cognitive dissonance in the minds of people who are comfortable with stereotypes Picture Quote #1

The stereotypes of feminists as ugly, or man-haters, or hairy, or whatever it is - that’s really strategic. That’s a really smart way to keep young women away from feminism, is to kind of put out this idea that all feminists hate men, or all feminists are ugly; and that they really come from a place of fear Picture Quote #1

Stereotypes fall in the face of humanity. You toodle along, thinking that all gay men wear leather after dark and should never, ever be permitted around a Little League field. And then one day your best friend from college, the one your kids adore, comes out to you Picture Quote #1

The men who are messing up their lives, their families, and their world in their quest to feel man enough are not exercising truemasculinity, but a grotesque exaggeration of what they think a man is. When we see men overdoing their masculinity, we can assume that they haven’t been raised by men, that they have taken cultural stereotypes literally, and that they are scared they aren’t being manly enough Picture Quote #1

Borat shows American stereotypes of Eastern Europe but it’s an accurate depiction of what a certain type of American is. They think they can buy and sell these girls and then they get bought and sold Picture Quote #1

I really appreciate crafts. I like cooking. I love food and drink. I love owning that through Instagram. Although that can be challenging at times because it doesn’t fit people’s stereotypes of a technical founder Picture Quote #1

Most Muslim women know it is fear and curiosity that cause people to stare. They know it is ignorance and stereotypes that cause people to suppose that a piece of material covering the hair strips a woman of the ability to speak English, pursue a career, work a remote control Picture Quote #1

Success on the front of women’s rights will look like a world not only with obvious advances - where no girl is denied access to education, for instance - but also one with more subtle changes in how we regard gender and gender stereotypes Picture Quote #1

The more we think we’re not affected by media - stereotypes, advertising - the more potential those forms of media have Picture Quote #1

This is, for an accomplished Latino, an accomplished African American, an accomplished anyone who disproves stereotypes, it’s a constant battle in your life Picture Quote #1

It’s almost a rite of passage for the middle-aged, it seems, to invent generational stereotypes for dumping on the young Picture Quote #1

I didn’t want to let women down. One of the stereotypes I see breaking is the idea of aging and older women not being beautiful Picture Quote #1

Great numbers of Asian Americans do not fit the model minority or ‘tiger family’ stereotypes, living instead in multigenerational poverty far from the mainstream Picture Quote #1

I’d read a lot of thrillers about politicians and presidents, but never one where you flip the stereotypes and make good people bad and bad people good Picture Quote #1

I know stereotypes have a bad reputation, people say, Oh, you shouldn’t stereotype people, but I think it’s important to recognize that we couldn’t function in the world without stereotypes Picture Quote #1

Society wants to believe it can identify evil people, or bad or harmful people, but it’s not practical. There are no stereotypes Picture Quote #1

When I started doing standup when I was 17, I was talking about being Indian and specifically ethnic jokes. Straightforward stuff that was fairly ignorant that I knew would get the laugh. It wasn’t flipping stereotypes; it was using them Picture Quote #1

I think if I were a college professor, no one would say I was uncomfortable about being shy because that might be expected. But I think because of people’s stereotypes, they think of a football player as someone who is very outgoing and I’m not Picture Quote #1

I continue to be surprised by judgmental native stereotypes and apathy, but if I wasn’t that would mean I’d become accustomed and tolerant. I don’t want to stop being surprised. I just want them to stop Picture Quote #1

You don’t tell people who disagree with you they’d be better off somewhere else. And you don’t reduce them to stereotypes; you address them as fully formed people worthy of respect. You try to persuade them Picture Quote #1

I think a lot of times stereotypes come when there are disconnected white writers who maybe have two or three black friends, and they write black characters, and they put them in situations that are ridiculous Picture Quote #1

I dug up some old John Buscema ‘Conan’ comics. Man, when Alfredo Alcala was inking, that was some of the most beautiful black and white comic art ever published. The stories are good, too, though early 70s comics based on Conan is a festival of sexist, racist stereotypes Picture Quote #1

There are still plenty of movie people peddling black stereotypes. I guess Tyler Perry’s probably the most massively successful Picture Quote #1

We put stereotypes on ourselves. Everybody does that. But I think it’s just a little harder for black kids to just be who they are Picture Quote #1

Where are the exhortations for children to reject the self-defeating stereotypes that reduce black people to violent, oversexed ‘gangstas,’ minstrel show comedians and mindless athletes? Picture Quote #1

Any time you stop looking at evil as a black and white thing, it’s helpful. So the fact that there won’t be any obligatory Islamic terrorist stereotypes in movies any more, that’d be helpful Picture Quote #1

Paul Robeson was an athlete, Rutgers valedictorian, lawyer, writer, actor in movies and plays, great voice - a black male doing it all, back when some people thought he shouldn’t. One reason I do all the things I do is to break stereotypes that people can only do certain things Picture Quote #1

I like to blow up stereotypes, like taking the icons of metal, the epitome of male testosterone and showing them as regular people Picture Quote #1

When I first was exposed to ‘Porgy and Bess’ many, many years ago, I was blown away by it - loved the music, overwhelmed by the production at the Met that I saw, and thought I want to play Bess someday. But I also knew they were stereotypes that were considered racist Picture Quote #1
