I do agree with this as occasionally you see "walking stereotypes" occasionally, such as the dumb blonde or the drunk Irish man, and obviously there is always going to be some people that fall into stereotypes in real life.

I really do not agree with this, because as times change, stereotypes must as well, as again, the hamburger eating, shotgun owning American would not have been around before the popularity of hamburgers or the invention of firearms. Also, as the world becomes smaller and people can view other cultures more often, older stereotypes die out, such as the view of all Brits being posh, tea drinking, Victorian style people being less believed not among other nations.

I do not agree with this statement as no-one really stereotypes themselves, unless sarcastically such as, an Irish man saying something like, "Sorry were you expecting a drunk, ginger, beared man?" Sometimes, however some people may stereotype against themselves to make a joke or to prove a point, but they are nearly never serious about it.

I agree with this assumption as many of the world powers of today are stereotyped such as "fat, burger eating, gun totting Americans" and the rich are also stereotyped, such as wearing proper suits, top hats and sometimes monacles. This shows that minorities are definetily not the only ones that are stereotyped.

I do not agree with this assumption as even if the stereotype is positive such as Jamaican’s are really cool and easy going, the fact that it is a stereotype makes it negative, as not everyone that falls into the group being stereotyped will want to be seen as like that. They may just want some individualism.

This video from Band of Brothers shows the character Bill Guarnere, who is a stereotypical Philadelphia man, shown as strong, tough and a bit hot headed, which is positive with his job being a soldier.
