I was stereotyped by one of
my classmates. She thought
that just because I was
Mexican, I would get
pregnant, and drop out of
high school. She thought that
I did drugs and I get drunk at
weddings and party all night
long. She once asked me if I
leave school to do drugs.

It’s hard not to stereotype a person or a group of people.
As I wrote my paper, I realized that, even though I
didn’t notice it before, I stereotyped others. I told
myself that I was not going stereotyped people but it is
hard not to.
When writing, I discovered that I am writing for a
reason and not just to myself or an audience. There is
no such thing as right because others might think we are
wrong. We have opinions we write down and we have
beliefs of what we think is right.
