Any reason why some people are so stupid to stereotype girls who wear black, dark lipstick and have black hair

as goths? Also assuming they are blood drinkers, involved in cults, vampire wannabes, sacrifice animals and is into satanism?


Oh yes and they also think witches, goths, vampires and satanists are the same and they all look the same which dressing in black, wearing dark lipstick and having black hair.





This is stupid! Any reason why some people are so stupid to stereotype girls who wear black, dark lipstick and have black hair
Tell me about it! Me and my friends were called goths, punks, emos, metalheads =/ and one man came to my friend who was wearing a necklace with heartagram (band H.I.M sign) and asked if she was satanic because she was wearing that. People are quick to label others. And they're also quick to say everything that comes into their mind. That means satanic, blood drinker and etc. They just aren't used to such people and know nothing about them so they automaticaly think they are some monsters who kill little kids and drink their blood.Any reason why some people are so stupid to stereotype girls who wear black, dark lipstick and have black hair
it's not just blacks who think this geez. Report Abuse

What the hell are you talking about? I always thought it meant they were in choir together? Honey, that's like saying all the men in the 70's that dressed in leisure suits were only interested in sex and cocaine. Okay, so maybe that's not the best analogy.





The answer is very simple,and it's not stupidity. If you're not a part of the inner workings of a subculture you're not going to understand the nuances of various cliques. You're going to take your knowledge from Hollywood. Lately vampires and the like have been costumed in goth type garb. People may be ignorant of the facts, but that doesn't make them stupid.





For example, two men walking toward you, both wearing black pants, white dress shirt and black tie. Who are they? If you said Jehovah's Witnesses, you're wrong. They're IBM techs.
It is a profile thing. We as a society make quick judgments based on the way people look. You do, I do it, we all do it.





But, When I see a girl wearing black lipstick, cloths, nail polish, I do think goth, but do not think Blood sucker or cult. Much like when you see a guy wearing a pro football jersey you are going to assume he likes football, not that he is on the football team, right?
Yes it is stupid like the old saying ';don't judge a book by its cover'; but it seems to be human nature to do just the opposite to judge by one's looks which is truly unfortunate. The media does not help with all these mistaken image concepts that are formed. For want of a better term called it ignorance.
anyone who thinks a person is a blood drinker base on their appearance should have their head check
