  8. Stereotypes Where do they come from? What are the images we associate with them? What happens when those images are challenged? Do different cultures share the same view of stereotypes?

  9. A stereotype is a popular belief about specific types of individuals. The concepts of "stereotype" and "prejudice" are often confused. Stereotypes are standardized and simplified conceptions of people based on prior assumptions. Another name for stereotyping is bias. Sometimes stereotyping can turn into discrimination if we misinterpret a bias and act upon it in a negative manner.
