Many things in our lives are governed by stereotypes, which may well be our own or taxes without realizing it by society and the globalization of aspects that gradually get into our subconscious and may come to rule some aspects of our life, is by This is what I bring to this subject, to know that it is a stereotype and which are the most common in our day to day.

The rae defines stereotypes as:

"Image or idea commonly accepted by a group or society with immutable character."

As we can realize, the stereotype is not an image, that we believe in something and that is of acceptance both of our own and of a society. I am one of those who believes that there are stereotypes that are social and other personal, for example: with something as simple as the life and success of a person, society dictates that a person who studies, graduates, has a house, a dog And a wife is successful. But this is not always the case and we know this only increases the possibilities, but it is not a law to follow, it is a stereotype that creates the society of a perfect life or simply the success of a person.

As for personal, they will be those things that we ourselves take care of creating an image and claim that we like things in a certain way. Of course it always happens that in one way or another we are influenced, in greater or greater way, although it is not for a society, it is for our relatives or friends, and even for previous experiences that create us an image of an abstract phenomenon.

Stereotype of beauty

Something very common in what we find stereotypes, is in beauty or attraction, both physical and mental. This happens to do something very governed by the globalization of the body of the woman or the perfect man, that we are sold by the great industries, but more nevertheless I know many people who have their own stereotype of attractive women or men.
The big industries sell us to the skinny woman, tall with a thin waist and fine features, while the women present to this tall type, with broad back and with strong features. There are people who let themselves be guided by this and only turn to see this type of people, also if they have some economic power make it more attractive.
But less badly, not all we are left with this, there are people who look for more than this and focus on the person as such and on physical features many more different than the ones that globalization sells to us. Example: I look for women who are not very tall, a cute body, not so thin but not so chubby, and above all a positive and funny attitude, plus clear a pretty face. That is my stereotype of a pretty woman, but this does not mean that it is infallible and that I only look for that type of people, they are the ones that attract me and those that I would like to have the opportunity to know, but my previous experience dictates something else , The couples that I have had little are governed by this stereotype, since they were in charge of breaking that mold, and the truth I enjoy it very much.

Recently it was the world's most important beauty contest, the Miss Universe, and it's sad to see a group of women wanting to be dummies, looking for an insane beauty imposed by the stereotypes of a banal society, we not only see it in this Aspect of life if not in many throughout our day to day.

Recommendation

So I recommend you, create your own criteria as to the different situations that arise, get your guess and listen to those around you, sometimes they will be right and others are not, that's when to do or think what you think is right It is important, you have to put things in a balance, and know, that is good and that not. To put ourselves in stereotypes is bad, we often seek social approval and we put a barrier that prevents us from advancing, so before thinking that if things are not so, meditate and turn the situation around, there is never one Only way of seeing or doing things.
