I'm your typical me.
I'm a film geek, computer geek, music geek, politics geek, and on top of it a social animal with people who are nothing like me. I guess you could throw any stereotype out there and I'd fit it somehow.

Academical bookworm kinky/perverted scandinavian agnostic computer nerd rpg player feminist girl.
What I would like to be: -more green -more into human rights activism The wrong stereotypes I sometimes get put in with - easy way to get me annoyed: -atheists and free thinker zealots -green movement activists -radical feminists -goths (for wearing mostly black just out of aesthetical preferences, don't have any principals about this and can wear a baby blue summer dress with daisies if I think it suits me ) -heavy fans (I listen to metal, but the milder bands and might just listen to chart hits radio station aswell, hate speed/death metal) -satanworshippers (dark clothed roleplaying gamers usually poke fun at this label they get. an old woman in the bus stop goes to stand 20m away if I am wearing a long leather jacket that morning. If I have and denim jacket or wool coat, nothing) |

Well, others think I'm the "So Smart He Thinks He's Above Us All" type.
But, thats not true. Also, I'm a southerner, which I think is funny, because we get ripped on so much, and what are the jokes about us? We're all racist. We're inbred. We're stupid. We're crazy sumbitches. I love rap music and have a thing for black girls. I've never even MET anyone with even the SLIGHTEST inbreeding. I made a 32 on my ACT. Well, they're not ALL wrong. And yes, I was born AND raised here in Tennessee.

I think I'm classified in my school as the goofy jock who's going to have fun at somebody's expense (whether it be mine or someone else's), and is the underdog, no matter the effort I put into whatever. I also feel confident I got a "best friend" aura surrounding me, for whatever stereotype that fits.

JP, no one is a stereotype. That's both the purpose and problem with stereotypes: They're shortcuts to thought.
Anyone who tells you that they fit a stereotype is either ignoring the largest part of themself, or pulling the wool over your eyes.
