Types

     There are two kinds of people- those who are what you see is what you get and those who you have to get to know. I'm not exactly sure which type I am but I suspect is that I am more the type you have to get to know . I am fine with that. Years ago I had found this frustrating .Sometimes what is so apparent about some is so abhorrent that it would be better if it was more hidden. Then again maybe it's better that way. Sometimes when you get to know someone it gets better sometimes its worse. It's all about being willing to make that journey.

i hate stereotypes


i hate stereotypes. new yorkers have a reputation for being loud and pushy. though a lot are, not all are. jewish men especially like gentile women because gentile women aren't as smart as jewish women and will let jewish men treat them like garbage. of course this is a stereotype as well . not all jewish men treat their wives like gabage. not all jewish women are intelligent and not all non-jewish women are imbeciles. as for jewish men being cheap.... well not all jewish men are cheap either. and all jewish men aren't all winey, wimpy mama's boys. all jewish women arent materialistic or overbearing. if anyone ever called me jappy they would have to be deaf , dumb and blind. someone once asked me if i had my nose done because i have a small nose. well i did not. not all jews , if any, have big noses. oh and all jews do not have brown eyes or obnoxious brooklyn accents.
the worst part about stereotypes is that they are often perpetrated by the very people whose reputation they attempt to defile.
there are good and bad in every group, race , religion and ethnicity. if a person isnt able to see this they need to get a life.
