Stereotyping can be very dangerous because it lumps someone into a group, giving them a set of characteristics that may not be accurate. It labels and makes assumptions about a person or a group, which can be damaging.

Stereotyping lead people to believe things without any prouf. So they act towards each other regardless of whatever reality could be considering only what they think to be true. Tension, admiration, guilt, hate, love... anything could be built around ignorance and wonder.
