I do, sometimes. When Im joking with a girl i'd be like : "hey woman make me a sandwhich" or something like that. Nothing serious though. But I also realised that stereotypes are always gonna be there. When people see an Asian kid, they usually expect them to be smart. No offence to any Asians or anything just an example. So OT , do u use steroetypes?

Of course not. All stereotypes are bad.

some i find to be quite true.... whenever i come upon a person driving very slowly, or doing something asinine like k-turning in the middle of a double-yellow divided road its almost ALWAYS an old person at the wheel....

I'm the same way, joking with my girlfriend. I always tell her "Why is your switch on complain instead of clean?" She gets a small laugh out of it though, so I know she likes it from time to time.

ofcourse I use stereotypes sometimes, often as jokes, or simply because it takes a whole lot of explaining about people youve met, when you can pretty much describe them with a steriotype (if they falls into one)

I do, but only when relevant. Like you go past a kfc and the whole restaurant is primarily black people (we have only 117 black people in my city ). I lol at women in the kitchen and stuff, but I don't use it much.

Stereotypes are excellent for humour.
