How are you a NON stereotype?

NDRU's recent thread sort of begs the presence of this one biggrin...

i don't like 95% of pop music divas, and i absolutely loathe "Hi-NRG" dance music.

i only get my hair done on average of once a month*, unless i'm rocking a shaved head, at which point it's whenever i start looking like pogo the possum.

i have never seen an episode of 'desperate housewives', like, EVER. not even a bit of an episode. that show is a complete stranger to me.

apparently, it's non-stereotypical for gay men to be friends with (or friendly to) lesbians. i don't even know what all THAT is about, and it's stupid that this should have to be considered "non-stereotypical" behavior in the first place, but there ya go. loves me the lesbeeshuns. mad




*i do, however, get my hair did at macy's, which is, okay, kinda gay.

hmmm
lemme seee.

Being Asian....



1) I don't know shit about playing the violin

2) I can't do math for shit

3) My ass is exceedingly hairy for an Asian. Folks who get down in it and lick it really good sometimes get the sensation of sunburn on their faces from the friction cause by my butthair.

4) I'm not a huge fan of rice, though if I were to eat it (I don't eat rice anymore), it would have to be Jasmine rice.

Yummy Mummy
An attractive, healthy, and very sexy mother! Usually a young woman or sometimes a really gorgeous and hot middle aged mother. Yummy mummies usually wear trendy clothes, have great hairstyles and always look fabulous.
that's me out confused

Grup
(a) walk around with an iPod plugged into his ears at all times, listening to the latest from Bloc Party
(b) regularly buy his clothes at Urban Outfitters
(c) take her toddler to a Mommy’s Happy Hour at a Brooklyn bar
(d) stay out till 4 A.M. because he just can’t miss the latest New Pornographers show, because who knows when Neko Case will decide to stop touring with them, and everyone knows she’s the heart of the band
(e) spend $250 on a pair of jeans that are artfully shredded to look like they just fell through a wheat thresher and are designed, eventually, to artfully fall totally apart
(f) decide that Sufjan Stevens is the perfect music to play for her 2-year-old, because, let’s face it, 2-year-olds have lousy taste in music, and we will not listen to the Wiggles in this house
(g) wear sneakers as a fashion statement YES
(h) wear the same vintage New Balance sneakers that he wore on his first day of school in the seventh grade as a fashion statement
(i) wear said sneakers to the office YES
(j) quit the office job because—you know what?—screw the office and screw jockeying for that promotion to VP, because isn’t promotion just another word for “slavery”?
(k) and besides, now that she’s a freelancer, working on her own projects, on her own terms, it’s that much easier to kick off in the middle of the week for a quick snowboarding trip to Sugarbush, because she’s got to have some balance, right? And she can write it off, too, because who knows? She might bump into Spike Jonze on the slopes YES to bold bit
heart wear a Misfits T-shirt
(m) make his 2-year-old wear a Misfits T-shirt
(n) never shave YES (only armpits, in the summertime lol
(o) take pride in never shaving YES
(p) take pride in never shaving while spending $200 on a bedhead haircut and $600 on a messenger bag, because, seriously, only his grandfather or some frat-boy Wall Street flunky still carries a briefcase
(q) all of the above?

confused

so not a yummy mummy or grup then hmmm

I'm a good dancer.

I'm not a hick who had to get up at 5 in the morning to milk cows ('cause I grew up on a farm).

I don't like heavy metal or country music.


hmm...that's all I can think of. Does that mean I'm more stereo-typical than not? confused pout

Not all, but probably most.

I don't say "right" but do say "eh" - not at the end of all sentences but probably on all questions.

I was a "White Chick" that was an on air Hip Hop radio jock....

Which was cool when I didn't want to be "recognized"...you know, the assumptions that I would be Black. I guess I could be labled as stereotype White girl in the hoodie at a hip hop show, but you get my drift...aaaaah those college days!!!

But seriously, we Americans put too much on looks and how we should behave. It really messes with people's heads.


Oh yeah...and NO I am not the white chick that is big as a house, trying to style my hair "ethnic", wear all my jewelry, want to be "ethnic" White female. Please do not go there!
