Might as well bring this one in seeing as we are on wrestling page. I watch wrestling and its assumed by alot of people that I'm white trash, I have no friends, and that I probably dropped out of high school. None of this is true and yet because I watch wrestling programming it must be. Don't like be stereotyped because I watch wrestling. Even some of my friends think that about me. The wrestling fan generalization is probably one of the worst.

Generalizations about me I hate...
*that because I take care of myself and care about what I look like, that I must be a shallow person who isn't intelligent or full of depth.
*that because I'm a very laid back person that I can't get things done--people I work with/have worked with seem to have the generalization you must stress yourself out and worry constantly in order to solve a problem. I take a more laid-back, not everything is a crisis approach.
*that because I don't want a relationship and/or 5 children that I can't afford to take care of financially, then I must be either A)insane, B)gay or C)both.

(This one is mostly made by the white side of my family) That because I have a black mother, I have to act like I'm 'from the streets'.
That due to my avatar/sig, I must wank off to beastiality porn. Excuse me while I vomit a little in my mouth.
That because I have no degree, and don't learn well in huge class settings, I must be incapable of grasping any sort of concept at all. As long as a person is willing to explain something to me one-on-one, and not get all elitist about it, I'll be able to understand them.
Slightly related to the previous one; That because I'm somewhat brain-damaged, I must be the village idiot, or 'special'. I'm not. I'm just un-coordinated and awful at things that involve manual dexterity.

I hate when people make the assumption that having a webcam means I get my dick out and show it to people on cam all the time.

There's not much really.
There are some generalizations about the Arkansas thing, but I've really heard all those, so that's no big deal. I get a lil bummed when, since I got laid off at the radio station last year, I've been working retail trying to figure out my next move and I often hear " you got a degree and work here?" as if kickass career jobs just fall outta the sky.
I once had a Lit. professor in college tell the whole class one day while I was decked out in Wranglers, a white Hanes tshirt, and dallas cowboys cap : " Look at what he's wearing, and blonde hair and blue eyes, he's just the all american boy" and he said it all icily as to be insulting, I just nodded and said ' that's me'

In high school and still now I often wear stuff like Abercrombie, American Eagle, etc. So beacuse of that im automatically a stuck up dick that dosent associate with anyone but "beautiful people" which is nowhere near true. I don't hate or refuse to associate with anybody. This also can bring on another generalization from these people that im supposedly to hate or something, that im gay or bi. Also far from the truth. Of course the wrestling fan generalization that has been mentioned already. People think im a brain dead moron because I enjoy watching wrestling. The worst though is from my uncle, who's wrestling knowledge comes from the 1960's, so he thinks that I think its real. Another one, Im from Texas. So when I "mosey" out of my "parts" people wonder where my horse, cowboy hat and boots are. Im sorry, I must have forgot them at home on the farm, maybe Becky Sue can "fetch" them for me when she's done milking the cow and "fixin' supper" People also look at me strange when they learn I don't have a Texan accent, like thats not possible or something.

Ah dude, don't say that, I legit had a wood stove till I was seventeen. I HATED having to cut wood, split wood, stack wood, and bring wood in several times a day during the winter. And if the fire went out at night, or it snowed and you had to chip ice off the wood to get it off the pile.. Yeesh! As a result I won't ever even have a fireplace in my house ever!

I buy stuff at a lot of those stores too, I just like their stuff. I also have all different kinds of friends (muslim, gay, republican, democrat, whatever) and I'm from Kansas and when I "mosey" people are amazed I don't look like a hick and that I've never been in a tornado.

That because most of the people I hang out with are girls, people like to think I am gay or something. Maybe its because I , you know, like girls, and most guys are dickheads. I mean, which sounds more gay, haning out with a bunch of guys, or a bunch of girls?
Same thing with drama. They think because I do drama that I am a "drama argle bargle gargle". Maybe I like to act. And you wouldn't go up to a major movie star and call him a argle bargle gargle.
And I don't hate gay people. Just the opposite. Just that I dislike being called something I am not.

That because I'm bi I'll have sex with anybody, male or female, regardless of what they look like. Uh, hello, bi people have standards too, we have to be attracted to people to want to have sex with them.
That because I'm into the BDSM scene, that I always like any kind of pain at any time. Uh, no.
That because I'm married to a black girl, I want to be black. Again, no. I just see past skin color, and love her for her. And she's hot (and bi, too).
That because I am Pagan, I hate christians and god and worship the devil. Nothing could be farther from the truth, as any Pagan would tell you.

that because I enjoy a good tranny, people on this board say I am gay. Couldn't be further from the truth.
Speaking of gays, I hate it when people assume all gay guys are sex-freaks that will tap anything that moves. I have heard people say they won't trust their children with gay people.
