Representation - Notes

Tessa Perkins (stereotypes)



  • What is a stereotype?
A stereotype is group of people which are associated with different things like words, clothes, colours
Assumptions which we think about the way people look and act 


  • Stereotypical groups at wyke
Indie
Btech sports turds
Twats/ dickheads 
Bitches
Couples 
Smokers
Geeks
Posh
People that just don't care
Art crew
Science lot
They come from films, media, past experience.
Stereotypes are exaggerated truths 
And we aren't always correct

5 assumptions

* Stereotypes are not always negative (French are good cooks)
* They are not always about minority groups or the less powerful (upper class twits)
* They can be held about one's own group 
* They are not rigid or unchanging (can change but very hard to change)
* They are bit always false
Stereotypes aren't always negative 
Not always about minority groups or the less powerful people assume this but it's not always the case can make stereotypes on above classes both positive and negative 

We still stereotypes our group

They are not rigid or unchanging

One a stereotype has been created it is really hard to change it but over time it can change and develop

They are not always false

* They have some truth
* We read stories in the media , watch films etc help us shape and understand these stereotypes 
* We may witness it first hand or second hand however there bust be some truth in a stereotype otherwise the ideology behind them would have existed in the first please 
- First hand when you know say a police officer and you stereotype them 
- Second hand when you stereotype a police officer from the media

* Stereotypes are usually wrong
* Negative concepts 
* Based stereotypes in things we still media we stereotype stereotypes 
*  If we didn't have stereotypes we wouldn't understand society 

The sheet

* The normal stereotypes of a pop star who is stereotyped to be a sexual objects  she conforms to it in a clever way 
* In her video bad blood she
