Have you ever known anybody who shatters stereotypes?

[Rend Blackhand]

I'm a Tory voting Scot. Enough to get me lynched in some places.

[TheWorkingTitle]

Wow the democratic party must hate him.

The feelings are mutual lol. He works with the RNC and the NRA, and hunts often.

[zenkai]

Yeah, pretty much every Canadian I have met shatters the stereotype that they are friendly.

[Shibito]

Me! I'm a Norwegian woman who breaks stereotypes by

- not enjoying skiing/winter/cold
- wishing I worked in USA with their non-existant maternity leave so I could be at work
- not breastfeeding (the Mom mafia would walk behind me while chanting "Shame" if they knew, don't tell them please)
- being married to someone from Balkan

Eh, all I could think of

I will report you to our government for not liking winter and skiing! Its all we have!

I know a black guy who got perfect SAT scores.

For example a cheerleader who likes fantasy novels or a football player who excels in science. Know any people who shatter stereotypes?

Exceptions have never invalidated the rule.
Stereotypes exist for a reason, and that reason is a portion of truth. They are called stereotypes therefore, and not facts.

The captain of the varsity football team of my high school class was a huge Star Wars nerd and was in AP Calculus, Physics, and Chemistry with me senior year, so I guess he was the antithesis of a high school jock stereotype.

Every single time I actually meet and talk to people instead of making snap judgments on how they look.

I doubt someone who's drowning in pussy is a "cuck".

[Jotaux]

I've met my share of psychologically fragile weightlifters. It really shatters the stereotype that working out in and of itself is going to make someone "tough".

A lot of people start working out in order to help deal with depression.

Combination of the high IQ nerd video gamer stereotype and alcoholic sports obsessed truck driver.

Really is this so hard people?

yes :| yes it is

[Bapestar]

I know a white dude, with good taste in music.

Why do you hate Scotland, English-lover?!

Er, most people shatter stereotypes in one way or another.

I am mostly a computer gaming geek...but I have a gold medal from Taekwondo nationals in sparring.

My daughter was recruited by a Division I college in her sport and was president of her high school programming club in the same year.

One of my friends loves country music, and he's actually very intelligent.

I know people who are atheists, but are still pro-forced birth. Conversely, I know people who are staunch Christians, but are still pro-choice.

I know someone who has a PhD, but is remarkably stupid about everything outside of that degree.

Basically, the more you get to know someone, the more you realize that stereo-types never really apply to individuals.

Well he did start out his career with songs about computer games.

[Polyxo]

I think I'm pretty unstereotypical. I was kind of a musician-artsy asian girl who wound up playing split end for a state champion football team, and a multi year medalist in judo. Wound up competing in ice hockey, rugby, and having a pro-career in MMA.

Then from there, I became a computer scientist after injury retirement, so all over the place.

[Tennis]

I know an Indian bloke who doesn't reek of curry.

Does that count?

That's incredibly racist. What is your deal?

Damn...you could probably beat up lot of dudes on mmoc.

Don't exactly know how it's racist.

But yeah, keep getting offended.

It's all we have indeed Can't read online newspapers in the winter without getting bombared by "exciting" ski news. That, and bloggers.
