Stereotyping In Today's World

Stereotyping and today’s world Stereotyping occurs everywhere you go if you think about it. These situations can happen at home, work, and even schools. Stereotyping occurs mainly in learning environments either during (51.3%) or outside (53.8%) of class evidence from DHS students shows. Stereotypes do affect a students academic performance as well as their self image to a certain extent where they have to change who they are completely. Girls are weak and vulnerable while boys are strong and tough and do not shed a tear.
