Stereotypes We Explored In Class
In class we explored different stereotypes which would be seen in a typical high school setting, for preparation for our own teen films.
The three stereotypes I have chosen are:
The Token Black Guy
The Slut
The Nerd
The Token Black Guy:
The token black guy is the only black guy in the group to avoid confrontation about racism.
They are normally portrayed in the thug wear and who always cracking jokes and have certain phrases which go with the black stereotype.
The Slut:
Normally portrayed being blonde, pretty and stupid with an obsession with sexual activities with the boys in schools like the jocks, their usual attire would be a short skirt with a crop top and some high heels, and have some sort of love for the colour pink.
You would normally also catch them being cheerleaders and going around with their friends as if they are an accessory.
The Nerd:
The nerd is normally known as the smart people who normally care more about their grades then their social status in school.
They are usually bullied and bossed around by the hierarchy of a typical teenage high school in this case it would be the jocks and the cheerleaders (sluts)
They usual attire would be having glasses and braces, with no sort of fashion sense, and will look weak.
Their personalities stereotypically are shown to be quiet, frightened and easy to persuade.
