The single most pointless use of Urban Dictionary.
**most stereotypes are true in some cases. some are mostly true, some not at all
there is also no point bitching about stereotypes, because in the end they are pretty harmless.
it just gets annoying as hell when people define something just in defense, but then go define something else with some obvious stereotype
