yes, broad stereotypes and generalities exist, sometimes quite amazingly. but you are also an individual, and just because you happen to fit into some parts of some boxed-in category someone else has arbitrarily created out of thin air, it doesn’t mean you are *entirely* defined by it. don’t get caught up in the labels; get caught up in who you are, intrinsically, instead. the good thing about realizing that you may fall in line with certain stereotypes is that you can take a look at it, and it makes you think, and gives you the opportunity to redefine yourself, become a bigger, better person.
