Day #17 of Visual Insanity: So, in class we are talking about stereotyping. Stereotyping is one of the most common factors that affect and distort perception. We all have the tendency to classify our experiences and encounters, our feelings and thoughts, the people we meet and the things we see into groups and categories. We peg them to other, similar types of experiences and encounters, thoughts and feelings and people and things we have heard of or known or seen in the past. Although at times it can appear innocent and funny, stereotyping can be hurtful and is a problem throughout the world even today.
