Stereotypes

This category includes Stereotypes, which are oversimplified and generalized ideas about groups of people. Unlike subcultures, where individuals actively participate and identify with the group, stereotypes are often imposed by people outside the group. An example is the "Jock" stereotype, which is associated with athleticism and specific personality traits, or "Basic Girl", based on popular culture associated with young women. Stereotypes are considered mainstream and can be identified through "starter pack" memes.
