    I think stereotypes are when we categorize other people for certain ways of being. We find them anywhere, one of the most common is to confuse Muslims with terrorists, when they are not, the racial stereotype when we say that blacks are exclavos and we exclude them, another common is to say that women are bad drivers.

Talk about stereotypes: Ñengosos

Talking about stereotypes: Ñengosos By: Saúl Veintimilla A ñengoso is a person who likes dancing and singing reggaeton, this is their lifestyle. They are identified with Ñengo Flow, a Puerto Rican hip hop and reggaeton singer, creator of the RealG4Life movement that means 'Real Gangster For Life'.  People think they are a type of gansters just for being low class people and consume drugs but I think not all of them are dangerous. In our society are bad cataloged, they don´t like to study or be someone in their lifes, they only think in get things easily. All the reggaeton listeners are not ñengosos, we can diferenciate by their clothes. This urban tribe wear big t-shirts and baggy jeans.
