Stereotype - An Innocent Label?

Stereotype - an innocent label?

What is a stereotype? The first thing that comes to mind is that it's just that women can't drive cars, men can't paint their nails and women shouldn't be mechanics. But is it true?

Let's start by explaining what a stereotype is. It simplifies certain facts, giving everything a label and sticking to rigid standards. But honestly, who likes labels? Nobody, they could be harmful. Yes, you can say that every stereotype has its reason, or someone can say "This is what the statistics show." But if we were to believe the statistics, then, for example, when you go for a walk with your dog, statistically, you have three legs each.

A stereotype is a tight envelope that often hurts people. For example, why can't a girl be passionate about car mechanics? According to society, she is immediately considered a "tomboy". Assigning an appropriate gender to a given occupation is nonsense and proof that our society still has problems moving forward and looking outside the box. However, harmful stereotypes are slowly disappearing.

So, are stereotypes accurate? Should we follow them? Maybe next time you want to judge someone based on their gender, think twice. As far as I am concerned, for you, it may be just words, but for the other person, it may be something that stays with them and brings them down

🎶Guess who's back, back again🎶

Guys I hate studying French. I know, beautiful language and everything, but it's so hard for me, I definitely prefer English.

Still waiting for the art competition results, new show just around the corner, lots of studying. I try to draw more often, because I decided to develop the skill, 'cause I want to at least try to get into the academy of arts. It's not a sin to try, right? (I'll post some sketches tomorrow, I promise)

I have got some idea. I don't know if it'll work, it's just a thought. I would like to tell you something about non-binary, mainly from the psychological, but also social side. In the country where I live, it is a huge taboo topic, I am still not fully come out yet. But I don't want to pretend, I want to show, if anyone is reading this, that they are not alone in this. Hey, if you're reading this, you're not the only one who has this "weird" feelings, thoughts, everything is okay with you

I don't know in what form I will do it, we'll see, but give me time please ♥️

Love you all, no matter what 💕💕 goodnight, stay safe, and hey, guys, thank you for the 2500 likes, I was shocked. So happy to see that >>>

Ps, please listen this song, like, it's masterpiece 🎶

Is there anything better than iced coffee and a bookstore on a sunny day? I mean, aside from hot coffee and a bookstore on a rainy day.
