What is one characteristic that makes you stand out from the rest? What is one thing about you that you don't think anyone else has? Does anyone have a similar characteristic?
The author says we are both individuals and stereotypes and makes a strong argument for his reason.
Do you feel that each person is more of a "snowflake" or that they are stereotyped, why?
Stereotypes have a positive and negative side to them. Just like the story of the guest speaker, Joyce Murton, who used her stereotype as a transgender to find people for support but was also discriminated against by opposing people. Do you think that stereotyping is ok in society? Can you think of a way to eliminate the discrimination?
