It's quite true on my end. Isn't lazyness part of a spanish stereotype?

No one is attracted to Asian men.

Does that count as a stereotype?

Sure, they're based in truth, but that doesn't make them true.

"Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the war room!"

It honestly depends on what truth your talking about.

A group of blacks could have problems with racist whites, therefore their stereotypes of whites being racists could be true to them, but that doesn't necessarily make it a universal truth.

Yes, stereotypes ate not developed in a void (though perhaps an echo chamber will do nicely) but through selective confirmation bias, you need some example to use and apply to literally every [insert target of stereotype here]. Stereotypes are assuming everyone will act the same way or have a certain trait based off of a few people or events.

I'm assuming you mean the colloquial version and not simply "religious people probably don't appreciate peeing on their holy symbol."

It takes a mere second for treasure to turn to trash.

Only schwag, OFG. It's cheap, at least! :D

And of course there is some truth to stereotypes. But most of them are antiquated and don't apply anymore. Or are, at the bare minimum, still pretty shallow and offensive.
