Heyya!
Stereotyping is setting an image about people or things based on certain characteristics or their membership to a particular group. Stereotyping is harmful for the individual and society for the following reasons:
1. We set an image of people belonging to one community and then pass on this impression to others. Thus, this establishes an unbroken chain of unestablished form of lies.
2. This image gets fixed and we start to recognise that group based on the set image. This stops us from appreciating the individual qualities.
Hope it helps! : )
