• Cultural construct
• We base stereotypes on personality traits and characteristics
• Stereotypes are learnt behaviour from parents, schools and the governments
• Stereotypes are ‘self prophecies’
• Gender identity and Sexual orientation are not meant to be put together, the difference in meaning is that gender identity is what you personally choose to identify with and sexual orientation is “who you want to fuck”
• “I want to define myself, it is fine to be in the middle you don’t need to be in the binary”
