Stereotyping

A stereotype is a popular belief about specific types of individuals. The concepts of "stereotype" and "prejudice" are often confused with many other different meanings. Stereotypes are standardized and simplified conceptions of groups based on some prior assumptions. Another name for stereotyping is bias. A bias is a tendency, most of these are good like knowing to eat food instead of paper clips, but sometimes stereotyping can turn into discrimination if we misinterpret a bias and act upon it in a negative manner (WIKIPIDEA)

Last Friday I've attended, a gender sensitivity training, This seminar open our mind to be more matured and accept the different gender exist nowadays. And we should accept the fact that people who have different gender is still part of the society and instead of  discriminating them, we should understand them, that makes him/her.

The cutest part of the seminar is when they played a video about differences of WOMAN and MEN. Men do sleep, drunk beer, watch TV and rest when they get home after work while their working wives do household chores after they work. Men do tell to their best buddies if he is in love while Women share to all of her friends who is she in love. MEN do sleep watching Romantic movies and WOMEN do cries when watching. Most of the time Women go to the bathroom. Women takes hours in shopping because she usually does window shopping. The ending of the video is the MEN and WOMEN will be happy if both partners will give and take and understand the differences of the  both side.

The speaker emphasize the WOMEN Empowerment, capabilities, potentials and skills. We women should not think inside the box but also think outside the box. We should dream bigger and never think that we can't compete with men on all aspects. We should have confidence that we could do something and we can share our ideals and skills.

I hate people who discriminate person capability to improve and to do their tasks assigned to them. It's like telling to them that they couldn't achieve anything and they will never improved and there status will be like that forever. I've always give someone chance to express his ideas even if it is wrong or inconsiderate because I do respect someone idea and opinion in everything.
