What are stereotypes? How can they be beneficial? How can they be detrimental? How can we overcome stereotypes?

Stereotypes are basically putting people into groups and boxes of general misconceptions because of race or gender. I’d assume stereotypes are only good if they are positive. They can be detrimental by putting people in boxes and and limiting them to something, if that makes sense. Like saying “women are bad drivers.” It isn’t true in many cases and you can’t just assume that someone is a bad driver because of their gender. We can overcome stereotypes by normalizing the opposite of these stereotypes and promoting positivity. Hope that helps!
