Couldn't you just have said, "3 minute video that anybody can understand." Rather than stereotype people's mothers as technically incompetent?

- tdkl 11y agoStereotypes wouldn't be stereotypes if there wasn't a grain of truth in them. If we take a sample of N>1000 mothers, I bet my money more then 50% would fall under this "stereotype". Is this democratic enough to suit as an argument ?

- mynewtb 11y agoNah, it will be a black transgendered immigrant at least. Get with the times instead of perpetuating sexist stereotypes from the 50s.
- roberto 11y ago> Stereotypes wouldn't be stereotypes if there wasn't a grain of truth in them. So typical of an Aries to say that.
- viiralvx 11y agoThe same statement could be said if you took a sample size of 1000 people. Most probably wouldn't know what you mean when you say "metadata".
- nissehulth 11y ago> Stereotypes wouldn't be stereotypes if there wasn't a grain of truth in them. Not true. Stereotypes are usually based on assumptions. The "grain of truth hypothesis" is used to enhance the stereotype, most often by people that prefer to believe in the assumption rather than facts.
