Hey Pandas, What Stereotype Are You Associated With And How Does This Affect You?
So I am a Karen. Really, my name is Karen, I’m middle-aged and have a blonde bob haircut. But I do not act like a “Karen.” I started a new job and decided to go by my middle name because I got tired of the jokes.Hey Pandas, What Stereotype Are You Associated With And How Does This Affect You?
"But you can't be a guy! You wear skirts!!!" (I'm trans) Well at least I don't go poking my huge, snotty nose in other people's businness. Also I have reasons. Skirts go whooooosh :DHey Pandas, What Stereotype Are You Associated With And How Does This Affect You?
I am underweight. Even now, when I’m at a relatively healthy weight, I still get comments like: “anorexic”, “men like a woman with meat on her bones”, and “no one wants a skinny b*tch”. I am a former anorexic, but I am at a healthy weight now. I have always been underweight; it’s my metabolism. I know I’m flat and I know I don’t have the curves people want. I don’t need it shoved in my face. I never used to be ashamed of my cup size or lack of curves, but now I am.Hey Pandas, What Stereotype Are You Associated With And How Does This Affect You?
Many. I am a migrant so in this country I am seen as inferior, lazy, less intelligent. People assume all the time that we arent educated (like the teachers at the public language school), that we dont want to work, that we are less intelligent (sounding smart in a second language is difficult). I am also spanish so I must be lazy, always late, loud and not reliable. Xenophobia is a huge problem in this regoin of Belgium. I am also disabled. So a lot the stereotypes mix. Now I can't work or I cant go to school. So now i am the "proof" that all migrants are lazy f***s who dont want to work or integrate. I am also not really ill in the eyes of people. I just need to exercise and be more positive. I am also white. This means that my struggles are very often dismissed. I have been told by the anti discrimination department that xenophobia is not a thing, that they only persecute racism, religious intolerance, homophobia... As soon as I am white and an atheist anybody can treat me as badly as they want and its fine. I had two public employees yelling at me for making a mistake in their language. One of them took my ID and refused to give it back for a long time and did not fix my bus pass (ironically I had it for the language classes). A social worker that threatebed me with deportation for asking help about my disabilities. A bus driver that woukdnt open the door for 4 bus stops because he was pissed at me for my bad flemish (I just arrived to the country). Two doctors refusing to attend me. Two dog trainers refusing to let me work with them. If I was of another etnicity I would have a legal case against all of them. But since I am a white migrant nobody cares.Hey Pandas, What Stereotype Are You Associated With And How Does This Affect You?
My daughter requires compassion and safety before all else. She has additional needs (Autism, ADHD, profoundly gifted, etc) She will change the world one day, meanwhile I am sick of the “helicopter mom” judgement. I’ll always fight my child because other adults unwittingly/intentionally harm her, not because I am a micromanaging nightmare. She is adventurous, brave, hilarious, and kind. If the world is blind to see it today, she’ll be even more surprising later.Hey Pandas, What Stereotype Are You Associated With And How Does This Affect You?
i am a Goth... .. i have to be a bad persoon.. wothship satan and eat babies for lunch.. the faces when people see i have kids or when i help them are priceless... it doesn't affect me anymore but when i was younger and walked around like that all day, everyday, it was very annoyed during carneval and halloween, to a point where i stopped wearing goth clothes during those times... good thing i'm also a metalhead and nerd so i can be weird all year roundHey Pandas, What Stereotype Are You Associated With And How Does This Affect You?
I'm pan, so people think that I want to date frying pans >:(Hey Pandas, What Stereotype Are You Associated With And How Does This Affect You?
I’m Russian. You can tell where this leads and it often masked with memes along with few typical stereotypes. Are you Commie Soviet? (That was old times, so no.) I bet you drink vodka. (I strongly dislike that drink) Do you have a tank in your yard? (no, where in the hell did I get the money to get it?!)Show All 38 Upvotes
