category culture

The way that we tend to group people based on their characteristics. It is a dehumanizing thought process and often collectively the origin of conflict. Stereotypes arise when people are put in boxes. Category culture proponents believe that we are all one and the same.

“Mom, is that a man or a woman?”
“Not sure, why?”
“Because I can’t tell.”
“Well it doesn’t really matter, they are human.”

In this example, the mother introduced the idea that category culture is unneeded for the individual to be understood as human.
