Some may think i am a geek because i am smart. But others think I'm cool because i am in all sorts of activities. Stereotypes have taken over the minds of everyone. You see some kid in school and they look geeky but when you get to know them they're not. They can't control their looks, s o why base their "personality" on that. Stereotypes are hypocritical.

I am recently researching teen stereotypes and cliques throughout the life of high school. i agree with the part where you added the One Tree Hill quote (by the way love that show!) why do we have to go through our lives impressing people? I dont wake up everyday and put make up on for the people i encounter, i put it on for me so i can feel good about myself. I dont dress to a certain code. can express myself in ways that at the end of hte day i regret nothing and i am happy to be the person i am. I just feel so sorry for all the girls/boys that go through life trying to impres those around them. Wow i give you kudos for writing this blog.

Or if you're African-American then all you listen to is rap and hip-hop. That second one cracks me up. I get a kick out of people's reaction when I tell them that my favorite group is Linkin Park and I mostly listen to alternative music. OTOH, my husband--who's white--loves R&B and Rap. In fact, his favorite artist is Beyonce. I don't think stereotyping will ever go away. If people can't put you in some kind of category then the world might tilt off its axis. Or something crazy like that. Great post. And you can’t forget about African-American males have great athletic ability. Or if you’re African-American then all you listen to is rap and hip-hop.

First of all, congratulations on all you've accomplished in such a short period of time! We have 4 daughters, ages 11,12,14 and 2. So far so good but I do hope they are as entreprenuerial as you when they get just a bit older. I just spent so time going through your posts. Excellent job. This one paticular was very well done. In our house, we have one thing that we live by, "Who do you see when you look in the mirror?" That is what is important. Trying to fit into who YOU want to see in the mirror is all that's important. I cracked up when I saw your One Tree Hill quote! We spent all summer watching it over and over and the world almost came to an end last night when I changed the channel as it came on! Keep writing, I'll keep reading and I am adding this site to my blog so more people can see how excellent you are! @newoldmom @bestreflections I just came across your blog via another and I have to say that I am so happy that I did.
