This
may not be an official picture from some official site or Google. I found this
picture on tumblr, someone use paint or some naft programme to use it but I
personally choose this picture because it represents the stereotypes of America.
But the stereotypes by there town. I picked this particular picture because
when I think of America I automatically stereotyped it to be obese or hipsters
and some of them to be surfer hippies because of how many of the towns are
shown by Tv shows or publicity. I never think of the towns to have politics
from the little towns like Springfield. The most obvious stereotype is
Las Vegas, it’s the most visited place for tourists but when people think of
Las Vegas they are brought automatically to casino's and with casino's come a lot
more negative stereotypes about America like strippers and murders.
But the biggest stereotype of America is
the obesity, because America has a problem with obesity we automatically
presume Americans are obese because of how many take away they have, there are
over 50,000 fast food restaurants and 25% of Americans consume fast food. So
with this many fast food restaurants how can we not presume that the majority
of Americans are in fact obese. Obesity is just one of the many problems that America
has to deal with as a stereotype. America has so many stereo types and there
are not all listed on this map because everyone’s opinion on America are very
different but these are just the main stereotypes. Since this map is showing not all the good
things about good stereotypes of America they are a few that should be put on
there like how generous the country is as a whole because they aid other countries, and send
over many soldiers to fight for other people’s battles. This is one of the
stereo types that people seem to forget when they are thinking of the star
obsessed or the obese country the good things about America that they do for
other countries. The second good
stereotype that people forget about America is the hardworking citizen’s, majority
of them work every day of there life to have what they have whether they like
the job or not.
