Default Stereotypes that annoy you

Are there any stereotypes that annoy you?

My big one is how the media always portrays gay guys as flouncy, camp, with crazy ass hair styles etc etc.

It really annoys me, because only half the gay guys are like this.

Mostly all the gender stereotypes, I hate when people are lumped into certain categories of behaviours (?) just because of what sex they happen to be, we're all individuals

That everyone on Job Seekers are dole dossing scum of the earth, some people don't want to work, keep having children and deserve being called those names but there are some people like myself who are looking for work every week and at the moment it is hard with the recession out there!

Conservative Party voters are all heirs to lots of property, land and are probably distant royalty and they're all really posh. It's become so cartoonish in recent years it's borderline ridiculous. Yes, people like that do exist, but the way people go on you'd think the Conservative Party somehow tricked their way into power and the UK is being oppressed by them. Really irritates me.
