Stereotypes are overgeneralized beliefs about groups that tend to be simplifications. They are formed due to lack of knowledge about other people and are used to simplify social situations. While stereotypes can help with quick judgments, they ignore individual differences and can be incorrect. The movie "My Name is Khan" shows the disadvantages of stereotyping Muslims after 9/11, as the main character has to travel the US to tell people his name and that he is not a terrorist. Solutions involve open communication, tolerance, and social integration to reduce misconceptions.

DEFINITION OF STEREOTYPE Stereotypes are characteristics ascribed to groups of people involving gender, race, national origin and other factors. These characteristics tend to be oversimplifications of the groups involved. A stereotype is ...a fixed, over generalized belief about a particular group or class of people. (Cardwell, 1996).
WHY STEREOTYPES ARE FORMED? Stereotypes are formed because people really don't know other people. Usually they are formed based on misinformation and opinions. That is why diversity training is important.
The use of stereotypes is a major way in which we simplify our social world; since they reduce the amount of processing (i.e. thinking) we have to do when we meet a new person.
ADVANTAGES OF STEREOTYPING Stereotypes can be useful if you are in a new situation and need to make a quick judgment and fast decisions. Stereotyping can be seen as simplifying our surroundings so they are easier to understand. Stereotypes enable you to categorize people into groups, which allows you to form expectations about people and situations making life more predictable and easier to understand.
DISADVANTAGES OF STEREOTYPING The downside of using a stereotype to make a judgment about someone is that it might be completely misguided and incorrect, causing you to act differently towards the person which can offend them. that it makes us ignore differences between individuals; therefore we think things about people that might not be true (i.e. make generalizations).
EXAMPLE OF STEROTYPE Movie my name is khan
SYNOPSIS MY NAME IS KHAN Rizvan Khan, a Muslim man from India, moves to San Francisco and lives with his brother and sister- in-law. Rizvan, who has Aspergers, falls in love with Mandira The Khans' perfect existence gets disrupted, however, after the September 11 attacks on the twin towers in New York City. Mark goes to cover the war in Afghanistan and dies there. At the same time, the Khan family begins to experience post 9- 11 prejudice in their community and Reese begins to turn against Sam as well. One afternoon, an argument between them turns into a racially motivated schoolyard fight between Sam and a number of older students.
Reese tries to stop the fight but is held back and Sam is injured so badly that he dies. A shattered Mandira blames Rizvan for his death stating that Sam "died only because his name was Khan." She then tells Rizwan that she no longer wants him in her life. When he asks her what he has to do to be a part of her life, she tells him that he has to tell the people of the United States, and the President that his name is Khan and that he is not a terrorist. Rizwan then begins a long journey across the United States to win Mandira back. In the process of his journey, he "inspires optimism and joy in the hearts of the people he encounters by spreading of messages of goodwill wherever he roams."
This movie shows that love knows no boundary, religion or time. If it takes 10 hurdles to get to where love is bringing you, you will get through 10 hurdles. If it takes a Hindu to marry a Muslim to rejoice in love, it will happen. If it takes six months to get a chance to tell the President, "My name is Khan and I am not a terrorist", love will get you there. This happen because they puts everyone is the same category and leaves no room for individual personalities.
SOLUTION FOR STEREOTYPING Solutions to stereotyping eliminating misconceptions held by people in society by focusing on open communication and developing tolerance for understanding differences. It can also be resolved through social integration where people can meet minority groups.
Thank you
