    Are you ashamed to acknowledge when you personally embody stereotypes (gender, racial/ethnic, sexual orientation, religious, political) about some group to which you are a member?

    I am what I am. If it's stereotypical, then so be it.

    Is the phrase "drunken Irishman" a redundancy?

    Not really. Because I don't feel I embody any of the degrading stereotypes about women or black people anyway.

    I am a white 30 something mom who lives in the suburb. I am guessing the sterotype for me is that I am conservative in my beliefs, which is part true, so I can't knock. Also, that I am boring, and to people more cultured and younger than I, I also can't knock that thought. So I guess I'm ok with it.
