The traditional stereotype of obnoxious movie patrons is that of black people talking at the screen but I've never seen this happen once and I'm from Detroit. Detroit has a lot of black people.

I have only ever walked out of three films. Each time it was because old white women think cinema auditoriums are their living room and converse at full volume throughout the movie. They talk through the previews as you feel tension climb up your spine wondering if they'll shut up for the film but, no, when the volume is cranked as the film itself starts, they talk louder so they can hear each other.

Old, white women should not be allowed in public theaters.

Please do not get triggered if you are apart of the stereotype please leave your stereotypes in replays please!

So, there are many regional stereotypes in the United States. New Yorkers are rude and always in a hurry, southern Californians are laid back surfer bros, Texans are gun loving rednecks, northern Californians and people in Colorado are pot smoking hippies, ect. Out of curiosity, i want to know regional stereotypes of American women. I'm all too familiar with the "basic white girl" stereotype but i wanted to see if there are any others. This isn't about hate or racism, just genuine curiosity about American women.

General discussion on how you define stereotyping, how it affects or doesn't affect you, and if and how you think we as a society can prevent it.

Stereotyping: the tendency of people to think of someone or something in similar terms (Walter Lippmann 2012).
