Political Correctness and Stereotypes; are Either Really Fair
Many people decry the use of stereotypes, yet I find them useful, especially when you can back them up by reality; that is to say actual observations. Although this is probably the more prudent way to deal with ones observations we all must understand that due to political correctness and the living of a lie making any comments concerning stereotypes in public can lead to negative social problems.
Some less that politically correct folks laugh at all the political correctness out there. I am one of them; it is just some silly human social conditioning, which prevents integrity and truth in societies and human civilizations, as Stereotypes generally do have some relation to reality.
For instance many people have observed that most Asians have issues with their driving of automobiles. A friend and I were hit by a Chinese Driver last night in Atlantic City, NJ, he was with 4 friends in a Honda Car and smashed into us. He said he was; "Oh so sorry! I did not see you?" Well, I did have to consider the stereotypes of Asian Drivers? Only for a second, but nevertheless it does have some bit of truth to it ehy? (the ehy was for the Canadian readers). We were driving a Red Magna and how on Earth could you miss that right in front of you.
