Word Grumble

I hate the way people perceive the word stereotype.
People always look at is as a bad thing. Racial stereotypes, nationality stereotypes, gender stereotypes, that sort of thing.

But stereotypes are really fucking useful.
They give people an idea of what to think, which is something we need pretty much 99% of the time.
Or else otherwise our heads would explode.
Like boom.

When you read a story, and a character is described as pudgy, chubby, or round, people are instantly forced to think jolly. Probably because of Santa Claus.
When you read slender, you assume sinister.
When you read hunky, you assume hero.
When you read woman, you assume kitchen. (/JOKE)

I hate the way people assume this word, even though assumptions are useful in everyday life.
I hate this assumption, but I love assumptions in general.

Aww who am I kidding, I'm stereotyping things myself.

I guess we need to hate things in life, cuz otherwise they just wouldn't work.
