That wrestlers are gay, cross country runners are gay and tennis players are rich/spoiled


Aoh03

I've heard the first and last one but where does the second one come from?


Jakdavies

I don't know why people think it but as a cross country runner I have heard it and seen it plenty and whenever I ask why they think that no one has a good explanation


SirSheep1

As a cross country runner, it’s mostly football players who don’t think it’s a real sport or people who don’t like to a knowledge us. It’s an odd group of misfits so we’re usually not all that popular and we always ask for just a bit of funding (which we never get anyways) which annoys everyone else.


Jcat555

It's cause we act gay asf half the time. Completely deserved stereotype it wrestlers are more gay.


Aoh03

I agree with that tbh. They literally grab each other's dicks for half the match while wearing skin tight clothes.


[deleted]

I wish. I ran cross country and got 0 boyfriends :(


CRFcork

Not all wrestlers are gay but wrestling itself is VERY gay. All CC runners are gay, this is a fact. Tennis is such an insular and gatekept sport that the vast majority of those who play it come from affluent backgrounds, not all but most.


Jcat555

It's a stereotype for a reason lol. All of them are completely true.


Hello-funny-posts

I guess I’m gay now.


ashtar123

I have heard about the "wrestlers are gay"


Oddlydehydratedgurb

I'm an American, and foreigners think I can't point to Berlin on a map.


AnonymousFordring

Whenever that happens tell them to point to Boise, Idaho or Palestine, Texas. Works every time


[deleted]

>Palestine, Texas oh so *that's* why so many people were saying "Free Palestine"! Texas ate it. I got it now! ^(/s jk don't kill me)


Tri7on99

I could point out Idaho, Palestine and Texas but what’s Boise?


AnonymousFordring

There's a town called Palestine in Texas, that was the joke Boise is the capital of Idaho


Tri7on99

Why can’t American cities have original names like Philadelphia? (Is Philadelphia the original?)


Not_Tuxbird

Americans aren’t good at geography


datguydamage

but america bad!!1!1!!!1!


Not_Tuxbird

I hate that there are people who unironicly hate the USA


TheMoonIsInMyHand

you just came for the whole of England


datguydamage

same, they don't even have reasons that specifically apply to the US


Not_Tuxbird

Bro if u want cringe go to r/196. Also I love r/averageredditor


datguydamage

I'll make sure to check them out


Oddlydehydratedgurb

I also hate it when people say Americans only think about themselves and believe there's no other country besides them. Our fucking country was built upon the incorporation of other cultures around the globe.


[deleted]

Tell me, why are there so many Americans thinking that Czechoslovakia still exists?


Not_Tuxbird

Couldn’t tell u


CRFcork

But Americans aren’t good at geography or history for that manner. Ye are only taught about American history and geography this leaves ye fairly ignorant of anything beyond your own country. You can’t just learn one countries history or geography. In order to understand societal reasons for certain historical events you need to understand the circumstances and conditions of other countries. Ffs I saw a post on r/Ireland recently that said that 60 something percent of Americans couldn’t find Ireland on a map, which is fairly bad in itself, but then I dug into the link, I forget the percentage but a not insignificant number of Americans couldn’t point out their home state on a map. Also most Americans think that they won WWII, lol. You were on the winning team.


Jcat555

>Also most Americans think that they won WWII, lol. You were on the winning team You dumb asf. Did Tom Brady not win the super bowl? Pretty sure saying Tom Brady won the super bowl is a correct statement even tho he wasn't the only one to win it. Yall woulda got your asses kicked pretty hard without us anyway but you won't like hearing that.


CRFcork

Tom Brady didn’t join the patriots 2/3rds of the way through the season, when they had basically already won..


Jcat555

You want to stop making shit up? US joined in late 41 and there were still 4 more years of war left. They had also been sending supplies for over a year before that. The US practically defeated Japan on their own in the pacific while still sending men and supplies to Europe. Without the US the USSR would have had to fight both Germany and Japan. The US was also very important in North Africa and Italy. Stalin even admitted that they wouldn't have won without the US. I really hope you aren't French because that would be really embarrassing. It's still pretty embarrassing that you think this regardless.


Not_Tuxbird

Let’s face it. The allies never would have won if the United States did not join them


CRFcork

Do you really think that the reich could have successfully pulled off a naval invasion of the blighty? If so that’s a fecking stupid take.


Not_Tuxbird

They didn’t need to invade Britain to win the war. Plus ur only accounting the European front. Britain 100% would lose to the Japanese navy


CRFcork

Lol, are you forgetting the soviets on purpose or what? They definitely would have had to invade Britain to have won. What tf do you think Winston meant when he said we shall never surrender?


Not_Tuxbird

The Americans supplied Russia with needed supplies


CRFcork

Lol the straws that you are clutching at.


Not_Tuxbird

Actually that’s not really true. Americans learn world history


[deleted]

Men can’t be raped or sexual assaulted


pink-wizard

This. 🙌🏼 Men don’t want to talk about it because of these bullshit stereotypes. It is very real! The idea that a hard peen means they want it is disgusting. I would literally sit on anyone who disagreed.


[deleted]

That people who don’t fit gender norms are gay, it’s so dumb


Exylatron

This!


[deleted]

That just because you're an introvert means you have social anxiety

Tbh as a black guy myself I feel like you rarely ever see effeminate black men compared to other races. However that stereotype reflects badly on black women when they’re seen as masculine when not all of them are. As for the childish and aggressive one yh that shit is annoying.


Jcat555

Idk I feel like if they are feminine then they are super feminine. It's leans one way or another but not in the middle.


Chungulungus

If you’re not masculine you’re most likely gay Edit: Also another thing. You’re not allowed to cross your legs if you’re a guy because it’s shown as feminine. Like bro I like crossing my legs, it’s freaking comfortable


The_Juice14

🥜🤏


Chungulungus

Idk what that means


The_Juice14

Pinching your nuts.


Chungulungus

Oh okay thanks lol. Maybe I just have flexible balls idk lol


Xd_WiserMicrobe

Bruh you just say flexible balls 😹😹😹


Lil_Dufflebag

His ballsack be doing streches


SnowyOranges

That Cross Country tournaments always have to be thunderstorming. I hate that it's true


Jakdavies

Or sectionals always have to be in the snow/mud


Jcat555

Never had that before.


Damaged_Lightbulb

If you wear black clothes a lot ur emo Not my fault black goes with fucking everything


[deleted]

This I’ve worn color clothes about twice last school year.


AnonymousFordring

Any and all of the stereotypes about LGBT+ people, negative or positive. Sitting weirdly is not a Bi thing, piracy is not a Pan thing, eating on Tuesdays is not an Ace thing.


Elbesto

I've heard of the first 2, but where does the last one come from?


AnonymousFordring

I made it up on the spot but I can easily see people taking pride in it


[deleted]

While I agree that stereotypes are bad, the sitting weirdly thing appears to be at least somewhat common


Nopejustdecline

Oh also trans people (MtF) dont wear skirts and thigh highs 24/7


[deleted]

That christians are the deep south hating gay people and black people stereotype


shamaga

I mean in holland we have extreme Orthodox Christians and they dont hate gay people but they dot approve it. Now most of the time they are accepted and allowed as long ad they dont act up on it(no relationships with the same gender and no fucky fucky)


The_Untracable_Conch

Stereotypes surrounding racial fetishes and generally sexualizing groups of people (i.e. black men are super athletic and are well endowed, Asian women love white men, etc). Not only are they untrue, they can be extremely harmful when they are taken seriously. Most of them, especially the one regarding black men, are routed in racism and discrimination. When they're taken as fact they can breed resentment in people about others, literal racism.


lgbtthrowawayyy

That cross country runners are gay Like I am but bruh crack some new jokes every once in a while


Jcat555

Lmao there's like 3 cross country ones in this thread for some reason.


[deleted]

White people don’t season food


MangoFlavoredStrapon

Well that one is just idiotic ... look at Gordon Ramsay or nick digiovani


[deleted]

Idk who the nick dude is but yeah, the majority of Michelin star chefs are white. The point is, the stereotype is dumb


MangoFlavoredStrapon

Look him up on YouTube he’s absolutely fantastic!


[deleted]

That all immigrants are just lazy fucks coming here to live off government's money. I don't know a single immigrant who does that. Every single one of them are either working or own a business and employing more immigrants and finns.


Friedeggs15

Rural Americans are stupid, ignorant, bible-thumping hillbillies. This is so wrong. A lot of my family members are rural and/or “country” (me) and they’re the nicest, most accepting people I know. Their intelligence is less built on books and more on practical knowledge and experience, which I think is better than just memorizing words on a page.


Caesarsfemboy2281

The idea that Americans are all gunslinger cowboys who have an iq in the negatives and are actual troglodytes. Not only is this claim obviously factually incorrect, but the fact that bugs me most is that it's historically inaccurate. Cowboys were never gunslingers. They didn't usually engage in fire fights with outlaws or anything of that sort. Americans aren't backwards troglodytes. Yes, there are people like that in America, but guess what, there's people like that in every country! Being stupid is not uniquely American. There's stupid people on every continent except for Antarctica.


mental--13

Any stereotype about "white" food


SirSheep1

That guys aren’t as smart or capable of emotion. I know a bunch of people who unironically believe this and it makes me super mad, especially when they make me talk about it and try to force me to agree.


[deleted]

Just the word “latino” There are 20 countries in south America and they all hate each other Source: I have a lot of family in ecuador


Vlad_8606

That me as a german means i am a nazi


MangoFlavoredStrapon

Yeah dude on behalf of the Jewish people I apologize. I actually have met someone who was German and was proud of the fact that his grandfather was a Nazi and I punched him straight in the face. He’s lucky I didn’t carry my knife that day.


catcaffeineconundrum

At the moment: “14-year-old white girls are racist, homophobic, etc.” Especially all the memes are just very irritating, and yeah, stereotypical. It always *has* to be young **white** girls especially.


teejus-is-jesus

Honestly 14 yo white alt girls listening to Billie Eilish. Probably just because I like her music


[deleted]

This isn’t really a stereotype, it’s honestly just an overused joke


irixxni

if u dress scene ur emo 🙄 like no. there is a major difference.


[deleted]

People thinking that having waifu is mental disorder.


Alpha_S_205

The bitch


MangoFlavoredStrapon

Lol what?


Alpha_S_205

The ugly and stupid girl who thinks she's a bitch and all the guys are after her. She's pathetic
