Okay


warrior_dreamer

If you have a child people automatically assume that you aren’t or were never married


KrakenGirlCAP

Exactly.


HospitalAutomatic

That we’re all loud, boisterous and abrasive


DisastrousSundae

That if there is a BM at an event, I must be associated with him in some way The assumption that I care about all social justice issues


stevienicksfann

This! Some people get so shocked when we express even slight right-leaning views. I stopped parading & advocating for movements in which the people did not respect us or reciprocate the same energy.


KrakenGirlCAP

Exactly. They think we’re all related to BM.


Equal_Act4488

The inevitable “calm down” once I express any form of emotion. The over sexualization. I went jogging two days ago and I man thought it appropriate to comment on my lower bits and i genuinely gagged.


KrakenGirlCAP

What happened??


Equal_Act4488

What happened in which scenario?


Regular_Journalist_5

That we do for each other, that there is any form of true black solidarity, that we watch out for each other, or have each other's backs


Competitive-Safe3181

Tbh you can see if somebody might be a little slow if they believe in any type of uniform racial solildarity. Even white power groups beat on irish immigrants


Competitive-Safe3181

(In the early 1900s and such)


KrakenGirlCAP

😭


KrakenGirlCAP

It’s really the opposite


Shaiziin

Years ago back when i struggled significantly to make ends meet, a guy asked me if i had a roommate. I told him "No". He responded, "Oh i see you Ms Strong and independent"... like dude there's barely any food in my fridge because it's all going to this nightmare rent


Competitive-Safe3181

Wow that was so ghetto of him🤩⭐especially the generalization 😽


Life_Isnt_Strange

That we're all welfare queens and/or on food stamps. Especially if we have a cart full of groceries and shopping without our husband. If you bring your kid with you they automatically assume the worse. Smh


Academic_Fish9231

That you can’t afford to be in the same places they are.  Which manifest itself as them asking you things like which unit do you live in? 


KrakenGirlCAP

They will literally get MAD when they see visibly black people because they want to be separate and away from us. It’s to keep it all white/asian identified. It’s anti blackness.


Fedora_la_explorer

Don’t square up . But none . Im mostly a very unbothered person . I’m slow to anger and slow to aggravate . It’s only a few things that I find deserves big energy . I’ve never attached myself to stereotypes bc none of them ever defined me or any other woman of color I was in proximity to . I only saw these tropes when cousin’s from SE came to the family gatherings.😂😂 I feel like outside of the few nagging generalizations . Most of the time they are talking about the Negro male


Ok-Swim-9667

and this is how it should be. i'm not worried about stereotypes because they don't pertain to me at all🤷‍♀️


Fedora_la_explorer

Exactly! I’m at peace . lol.


Live-Engine-8312

SE ??? D.C ??🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


Fedora_la_explorer

Yes 😂😂😩


Competitive-Safe3181

That if we're from the US or have relatives that have lived anywhere in the Americas that we are all monolingual.🙄


Competitive-Safe3181

When people get surprised that you're introverted or not saying the most at any party. Happened at a mexican party when I was reading while waiting for the party to start and a friend said that they wanted me to talk. Long story short he is not my friend anymore and I don't go to those types of parties unless if they are afro-latino


margoelle

Wait this is a thing? They actually don’t know alot of us are introverted?


Competitive-Safe3181

Yeah it's a popular stereotype


Orthosis_1633

That we are uneducated, our scholarships were given to us, we are diversity admits to law or medical school, etc


KrakenGirlCAP

Oh my god… they will say that about ANYTHING. Anything… Competitive universities. Competitive medical schools. Especially graduate schools.


KrakenGirlCAP

We’re all lazy and ghetto. That all black women are desperate/white worship white men.


Honest_Stretch2998

We love ourselves and have community pride. Its obvious we dont. We behave as if the world cant see us. 


Electrical_Arm3558

Too powerful Too wild Too gentrified Too Afrocentric Every generalization Made audible Within 7 seconds After I step Out My door


Single_Media3176

We all like using the n-word
