The finishing part to that statement is and i quote "only after reading its contents should a book be judged"This is the one law a knight should live by and so i live by it.So no i don't do stereotyping.

Yes I do stereotype sometimes. I am a paranoid person. When I see some street punk coming near me I get suspicious and start glaring if they look at me. I usually scare a lot of people off like that.

I don't like to judge books by their covers. I try not to, but it happens sometimes. I have often felt the sting of people having preconceived notions of me. It's annoying.

I try not to, but sometimes you just cant help judging by first impressions.

I don't stereotyping and most of all i don't like generalising. The media does this far too often.

I prefer not to stereotype because nobody can make a valid inference based on somebody's visual appearance. Too bad the human mind likes this kind of thinking.

I think it's human nature the better looking thing will always be more attractive at first glance than the worst looking one.

Most of the time I do, especially if I want to know what kind of person I'm looking at or dealing with. But I don't judge people because of their gender, race, etc. More like in their personal appearance for it tells a lot about the person. It maybe observing or just plain intuition. But, I'm still trying to understand more of people because I don't think my understanding of it is enough. So, there...

its almost impossible not stereotype someone or something, we suffer a big influence of our culture to judge things.I try not to judge, but sometimes I do.
