People who say they don't stereotype make me laugh.
You do it whether you choose to act on it or not. Basic psych. I'm a Psych major. Your not going to win this one. People use stereotypes as a way to classify individuals without actually meeting them as part of your subconscious schema.

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
