Exploring The Importance Of Stereotypes In The Medical Field
I understand that the years after kindergarten where more difficult than you thought it would be and it is very different you never worried about being lonely or being bullied and frankly you don't have to until those rumors started going around and you lost all your friends or who you thought where your friends at least but you had few who stayed and you clung to them hoping that they wouldn't leave you too and they didn't not until a few years later when they where in different classes and when you did see them they where in the popular crowd like you once where loved by many but because of that they left you. when you reached second grade you started to get bullied not physically but in simple little ways like dirty looks and moving away from you and nobody really wanted to be your friend but you had a few friends and they tried to help you and they did for a while, when you finally reached third grade you started to bully others because you just wanted the pain and loneliness to stop you only did this once or twice but even still you came home feeling horrible knowing you just hurt someone who did not deserve it you grew quiet you almost never spoke in class and when you found someone who was nice to you, you clung to them really needing some support but you only seemed to anger them and they turned away from you all because you needed some support to know that someone besides your family cared for …show more content…

    I conducted a survey of 40 of my peers to find out their first impressions of me. I discovered that people thought I was nice but not naive, bizarre but in a cool and relaxed way, studious and outgoing but yet still laid back and chill, and I am happy to say good looking but (unfortunately) not in a movie star way. People also had the misconception that I was quiet, but by our second encounter, this quickly disappeared as they realized I was the complete opposite. All of my 40 peers now agree that I am an effortlessly loud presence. I would like to change this perception of shyness because it is not who I am. I lead the male portion of my chorus and blast out the solos, participate in class so much that it is almost like I am having a conversation…

    We all have encountered some type of stereotype or prejudices. A stereotype that I had to face was age prejudice by me being so young sometimes people don't set the high expectations for you that other people would at an older age because they expect for you to make mistakes. At times my mindset isn't where most kids are at my age. I skipped pre k and I am supposed to be in the 8th grade. When I tell people my age they be like " OMG you are young to be the grade that you are in" this is a perfect example of what I am stating that people sometimes think that you have to be average and can't go over and beyond your years.…

    The school had two large maple trees one on each side with a large flag pole in the front. The back of the school had a large playground in one corner of the field and three brownish beige coloured portables in the other which were used by some of the grade six classes. I always wanted to have a class in one, but everyone said that they were always too cold or to hot, or that they smelt weird. It was the first day of school and I was very excited my teacher was extremely nice and I made many friends. We had three breaks a day each an hour long that was when I first started to get bullied. There are many types of bullying such as verbal, and cyber bullying mine was physical. This usually included pushing, tripping, and throwing things at me. I didn’t get why someone would want to hurt others and then laugh about it later. This made me feel confused and scared like I was trapped in a small dark box without knowing how to get out or what was going to happen next. I spent most of grade one with my sister and her friends to avoid the bullies. As I moved on to the second grade I had to find a new way to deal with the bullies now that my sister had graduated and had moved on to middle…

    Public speakers can change societies by changing their way of thinking and/or giving a certain group a voice. Martin Luther King Jr. led the famous "million man march" and was one of the main figures that gave the African-Americans a voice during the Civil Rights movement. The infamous Adolf Hitler made an entire country believe his xenophobic ideology that the Jewish people were the reason were to blame for Germany's impoverished state. Even Socrates changed the way of Greek thinking altogether by introducing a new of way of thinking known as logos. One of the examples of a speech changing society was when Wiley College debated Oklahoma City University.…

    Stereotypes. Stereotypes play a major and huge role today in society negatively and positively. Stereotypes can form truthful and untruthful results that can mentally, emotionally and physically destroy a person, race or culture which we see today. Stereotype is a fixed over generalized belief about a particular group or class of people (Meclod). I chose to write on the topic stereotype because in society today we as humans stereotype one another all the time and do not realize it.

    Stereotyping in Nursing

    For decades, the imagine of a naughty nurse has been used in TV shows, advertisement, commercials, movies, and more. The media both reflects and reinforces the naughty nurse stereotype. Many people assume the health care profession is nothing more than taking care of patients and having sexual relations with co-workers. Grey’s Anatomy for an example, the nurses, and doctors are always displaying scenes of sexual relations, in the work place at that. In all reality, that is not the case. The nursing profession doesn’t even relate to that. Anyone in the nursing profession knows there is no time for sex in between assessments, passing medications, reviewing orders, and charting! Yes, of course you want to look appealing and feel confident in your appearance, but with that being said, just because you are an attractive person, does not mean you are having or looking for hook-ups in your place of employment.…

    I came to realize that I can make a difference when I helped a student in elementary school. This happened when I was 12 years old and still a student. It was during lunch break, some students were walking, others having their lunch. I was walking to the washroom and saw a group of students in the corridor talking loudly to another student; I was under the impression that they were friends but later understood that he was being bullied. My first reaction was to ignore them and pass by, but I could feel the helplessness of the student being bullied.…
