 Stereotype is relatively fixed thinking and views that many people have in common to a particular subject or group. In many cases, there is no clear evidence, it is just based on an emotional decision.
 Why human beings stick to stereotypes, there are two reasons roughly divided. The first, humans are without relying on stereotypes, it is impossible to recognize newly all things of everyday life. The second, it is because the system of stereotypes is the core of identity and it is the defense mechanism of the ego.
 Even if it is determined what stereotype is unreasonable according to the situation, human may distort reality in order to achieve simplicity and order. Even so, stereotypes are not pathological or abnormality. It's because it is natural Cognitive Responses like the first impression of some individuals.
 It will be subject to attack and blame with stigma that anti-moral and anti-social if you refuse the natural reaction of people rather accept. In addition, these sanctions have been taken for granted as legitimate. So people show the tuning follows the stereotype people for this reason.
