Stereotypes

August 16, 2008

After the seriousness of the last two weeks I thought some light relief was in order. I have no idea if the clip below is meant to be parody or advocacy but it could be used either way. It’s in Italian so that might be a clue, but then that is yet another steriotype! I am introducing it here as I plan a wider discussion of the frequent confusion between stereotypes v archetypes sometime soon. It matches some of the Mars/Venus pseudo-science, to which category we can add NLP and others. I aim to pick up on that as a subject as well.

Hat tip to the ever interesting Feministphilosophers for this.
