Stereotypes and their True Numbers

All stereotypes were originally created from a story, or from multiple stories. Stereotypes are just a different variation of those stories told from a single perspective. They are stories that are over exaggerated and generalize the entire culture. Stereotypes are something that leave no wiggle room for variation with numbers, even when there is clear evidence that opposes it. Let’s take the stereotype that Mexican women have large families. This did used to be the case when women would have 6-7 babies. However, in today’s modern culture women have only 2.2 births. This is slightly larger than 2.1. births, which American women produce. Contrary to the myth of laziness, the Mexican worker will often take the jobs that Americans don’t want, often working long hours and doing back-breaking work.
