1) General assumptions about a group of people often perpetuated through the form of tasteless jokes.

2)Sometimes ironically spread by people joking about their own group.

3) What people sometimes point out in anger unintentionally teaching others about it who have never heard of it and appearing like a bigot.

4) Sometimes accidently said by someone who isn't aware that it's a stereotype and gets weird looks and doesn't know why.
"Oh, it's probably a/an ***** guy ahahah. I'm just kidding, just kidding!"

"What the?"

"Yeah, cause ***** people are known for doing that."

"That's awful. I've never heard that...."

"Yeah, but it's a common stereotype that....Um...Nevermind."

"Haha, dude, you're so awkward right now it's hilarious."

Something that is not entirely fact, but is also not based entirely on fiction either. Not every single black person can jump, but many of them can, enough of them can. Not every single Asian knows martial arts, but many of the martial arts started in Asia (not all). Not every Italian has been in the mob, or knows how to cook, but the Italians had a mob, and enough Italians are good cooks. Not every single Irish guy has a short dick, but many do, enough of them do (that includes me), or a bad temper, or a drinking problem, but even if the lace curtain irish feel embarrassed and dont want to be associated with the stereotypes, they got started for a reason, even if they're not a fact for everybody in a population.
Stereotypes dont get eliminated because someone feels embarrassed by them. People usually know that a stereotype isn't a fact for everybody in a population, even people who perpetuate them willfully remain embarrassing to some people.

To say a stereotype is false is as misleading as saying a stereotype is true for everybody.
Though not every Jew was born with money or knows how to bargain with people, there's been a lot of Jews who made a lot of money that way, people know Jews for knowing how to make money, even if not all Jews have a lot of money. Some are embarrassed, some are offended, but it doesn't change anything. The stereotype isn't entirely true or entirely false.

A fucking racist figure that Chinese and white people think of other racist because 1 figure in today's society can effect the whole community of its own race,kind,etb
Stereotype 1: Latinas are always pregnant because they love boys and they want to have and nurture their own kid.

Stereotype 2: Chinese people are flat, active and small and speak Ching Chong!

Stereotype 3: Black people are always in prison.

Please don't believe this fucking crap it's not them it's what you believe in because you are affected by society in today's world
