A note on stereotyping and ignorance

Consider the ridiculousness of these statements:

She doesn’t sound like a quadriplegic.
I have nothing against people with dimples, but I wouldn’t want my kids to be like that.
I never know how to act around people with green eyes. I feel so conspicuous.

Exclusive! These Hollywood’s Couples Are All Heterosexual!!
I will never go to that church – they let proud people in. Pride is a sin, you know.
I can’t believe there are so many bald members of parliament.
I would never want a left-handed person teaching my children.
I’m afraid to be seen talking to vegetarians. People might think I am one. (They convert people, you know.)
Double-jointed? You can be cured!
