stereotypes survey!!!!!

I have only been here for less than a month or so and so far I have lived through the racial bashing tournament, the political rallies and I think we are now participating in the "gay" target shoot discipline.

I am not complaining, this is part of the site's charm along with people with real problems and top notch humor.
So this is my very concentrated attempt at introducing something fun and less controversial in keeping with the JU variety tradition.

You have all heard the stereotypical statements:

All Black people like fried Chicken
People from Kentucky are inbreds

And some you may not have heard:

Chinese people eat dogs
Black people don't get sunburns
Rock and roll kills brain cells

I was wondering what other stereotypes you may have heard or used???

Please only post if you actually believe that it is a stereotype and not the Gospel truth about something or certain people. The whole idea is to laugh at ourself and how narrowminded we sometimes can be.

I'm originally from a small Texas town, and a teacher at my high school made this joke:

What does a girl from (my high school) say after sex?
Get off me, Dad, you're crushing my cigarrettes.

Typical redneck stuff.

OK . . . I have a few more stereotypes (I do want to make it clear that I do not believe any of these things!):

British never brush their teeth.

Redheads have a temper.

Women can't drive well.

Gay men are effininate and into fashion.

Lesbians are masculine and dress like lumberjacks.

Jewish people love money.

Okay, this obviously doesn't fit for the given sterotype that ALL British people don't brush their teeth, but...

I grew up in a small village, Westleton, on the east coast of England (East Anglia). One of the biggest differences between all the other kids in town and my sisters and I was personal hygiene. We all brushed our teeth regularly, showered regularly, and washed our clothes in a timely manner. We were also pretty alone in this...

Oh, let's see....

Jews are cheap.
French are smelly and cowardly.
Russians are vodka-guzzling sots.
Romanians are cheats.
Italians are sexy and have to wave their hands when they talk.
Greeks are temperamental.
So are Spaniards.
Canadians say "eh?" a lot.
Mexicans are lazy.
Ethiopians will eat anything.
Jamaicans are hopheads.
Everybody else in the world has an accent.

This is an Australian stereotype....about the state of Victoria and their driving habits
If you come across someone driving badly...usually slowly or just not looking where they are going it is proper to comment...
"Bet they're bloody Victorians.." ....."Victorian drivers...hmmph!"

You're from Victoria aren't you Muggaz?!

Here's the biggest stereotype:

The Bush family has a total IQ of 132. That's for all of them. Oh wait, it's probably true!

India is a land of snake charmers and elephants.

This is true as far as the fact of having snakes and elephants in India is concerned.

But imagine the hillarity of the situation when tourists land up at the airport and expect Indian cab drivers to be riding elephants instead of cars. Of course this does not happen nowadays, but such an impression was the norm upto the early 70's.

heheheh!!!

In light of the latest heated discussion I would like to add one more stereotype.

All hetero Christians hate gays (not quite, I am a hetero Christian and I love gays!)

Here are some Australian ones: (actually, probably nsw ones . . .)

Queenslanders say "ay" a lot
Tasmanians are inbred
New Zealander's like sheep (a little too much . . .)
here's a joke - Whay is Tasmania getting closer to the mainland? coz Victoria sucks! (hahahahaha - yes, all very juvenile)
Asians can't drive. Women can't drive. Old people can't drive. This is backed up by insurance companies that charge young white men (between the age of 18 and 25) more money to insure their vehicles . . . something to do with accident statistics or something??? . . .go figure
Immigrants are hardworking (and so the reasoning goes, we shouldn't let any more of them in the country . . .?!?)

god there are so many! where will it end??

i think i'll have to take up dancing lessons just so i can single-handedly overthrow the "white people can't dance" stereotype (well, nobody else seems to be making an effort!!)
