I know people tend to associate Saudis with uniformity. We are the Trekkie's of the real world, wearing the same clothes, sport the same facial hair, and boldly go, well everywhere.
That's the problem, bunch of lemmings cause trouble in Spain, every Saudi going there is stereotyped.
Canadian Saudi flasher, watch out everyone.
Stereotyping is a stable against Saudis, its our certificate of authenticity. We have come to expect that we bare the burden of every cumulative Saudi mistake since the dawn of time.
Because we look the same, dress the same, we must be the same.
Like candy from a Pez dispenser, dressed in white and sour all over.

It's not like most Saudi's don't stereotype... we stereotype tribes, people from different cities/villages in saudi, and in neighboring countries...
ReplyDeleteStereotyping is ignorance... thats it, ignorance accompanied with laziness.
