Linda Winchell - 'Stereotyping'

We seem to place people in labeled boxes
Stereotyping who they really aren't you see!
Like, 'isn't that just like a man? '
Or, she's like all the others that I've seen.

Just because someone has done something
the way another does!
Shouldn't place them in the same category
Where you think they fit, just because!

'Isn't that just like a woman? '
I have heard so many men relay.
'It must be that time of month again! '
Because a woman might be acting
that crazy moody woman, kind of way!

Why do we think we have all the answers?
As to what or how a person seems to be?
And maybe try to stop Stereotyping
because you are really, not the same type as me!
