Answer + Explanation:

What do you think is the purpose of stereotyping?

The purpose of stereotypes is to help us know how to interact with others.

Why do humans stereotype?

Many stereotypes began because of people who are unwilling or unable to get the information they should have in order to make a fair assessment about certain people or situations. In many cases, stereotypes are a shortcut that people use to fill the gaps in their information about a group. Stereotypes are useful tools if you are in a new situation and need to make quick judgments and fast decisions. Stereotypes enable you to categories people into manageable boxes, which allows you to form expectations about people and situations making life more predictable and easier to understand.

What are the positive and negatives of stereotyping?

The downside of using a stereotype to make a judgment about someone is that it might be completely misguided and incorrect, causing you to act inappropriately or worse still, offend somebody. It is too simplistic to assume that groups of people share the same ideals and personality traits just because they have something in common like their dress sense, culture or taste in music. This is a form of prejudice and can be distressing for the person who is being prejudged, who might feel that they are misunderstood, particularly when a stereotype is racially motivated. The saying "Don't judge a book by its cover" demonstrates that appearance isn't enough to understand who a person really is.
