Mine is that women are bad drivers. I think anyone can be a good or bad driver but statistically, women are less likely to get into accidents, more likely to wear a seatbelt and our insurance premiums are cheaper.

Thin people don't eat.
I got accused of this all the time in my twenties. My metabolism has caught up with me now though.

That overweight people are like that through gluttony, they're lazy and dirty.

Feeling particularly salty about this today as a friend is being bullied at work for all these things. She has a legitimate health condition that causes her to be overweight, and cannot do any heavy lifting because of that condition. It is NOT through laziness. One colleague also reported that she perspires more than the average person, which they feel is due to poor hygiene.

Stuff these awful people! How dare they treat her like this (she works in an office; the heavy lifting is moving boxes of A4 paper and other stationery upstairs when it arrives at the downstairs reception).

That shy quiet reserved people are miserable.

I’ve been battling with being called this my whole life. Yet my husband, my mum & his family would say I’m totally crazy and always make them laugh with my silliness!

yes! Especially among uni students. There's a stereotype they're all just drunk all the time and they love it.
Yip, I was the uni stereotype.

I don't think I should be in here because I play a game of stereotype bingo whilst out shopping 🙈
For example you have to see if you can spot the 'chav' the 'single mum' the 'workaholic' the 'shoplifter' and the 'karen' 😅
