Answer:
When we fit all persons of a particular group into one fixed image, a stereotype is created by us. Stereotypes affect all of us as they prevent us from doing certain things, that we might otherwise be good at. A stereotype is based on prejudices. Such stereotypes hurt the feelings of others and it can result in misunderstandings and conflicts between various communities and groups.
The stereotype thinking that girls are a burden on their parents will affect their life and shatter their dreams and goals. It also creates a feeling of being inferior to others and arouses negativity among them. They feel so discouraged that they are not able to concentrate on their studies.
Five different effects of the stereotype are:
The girls are not given quality education as they are not allowed to join the school or college. Their career is ruined by this attitude of their parents.
They are not given nutritious diet because nutritious food shall be kept for the boys. As a result, their health and growth may be affected.
They are not allowed to enjoy their childhood and forced to do household chores. They may be forced into marriage at an early age. Sometimes they are also ill-treated by their in-laws.
They are not given proper care, love, and affection of the family and even not allowed to go out and enjoy with their friends. They cannot think of becoming independent, so they start feeling helpless even in their parents' home.
Their issues are not properly addressed and proper medical care is not given when they fall ill.
