In this session I have to write about the stereotypes I can find in my faculty.
The word stereotype means to me to classify people based in their looks, like the way that people act or the image they want to show to others.For example, when you are walking in down town you can see a lot of different types of people. You can see students, people who are dressed like office workers, etc. And even when you are not trying to judge, your mind automatically thinks in one sort of people.
Thinking in a stereotype doesn´t really work for me, because I think you can't figure out a person just based in their look. But I have found myself doing that a lot of times, even when I know it isn't right.
Personally, I have talked about stereotypes in my university with my circle of friends, and we have got to the conclusion that our university has a lot of different types of people, but in general I consider that they are all pretty "normal".
However, you can find some people in my faculty that fit in a stereotype just looking how they dress or act. You can find:
- "metaleros" who are people that listen to metal music.
- gay people.
- hippies (people that listen mostly reggae music.)
- flaites (unfortunated people).
But I repeat, there are just a small group of people that you don't usually see every day.
However, it's clear that every career has a special type of people with different personalities. But when you see them as a whole faculty, it's very homogeneous. For example, people who study Obstetrics like me, have the image of being very sweet, tender or sensitive.
People who study medicine are classified as a nerd person. I have found that a lot of them don't have a lot of personality and they get along better with books than with other people. But I have seen a lot of exceptions.
And maybe I could continue giving you some characteristics of every career, but that's just my perception.
I think I don't belong to any specific type of people, so I consider myself a "normal" person.
