Butterfly stereotypes of gender and race are confused, defied, and established. The biggest of these is the stereotype of Oriental women that allows Gallimard to be deceived by Song for many years. Nevertheless, without additional stereotype of Gallimard’s, Song’s trickery could not be possible. Stereotypes as such are derived not from factual evidence or observation, but from a preconceived notion of the East lacking masculinity and rationality unlike the West.

Stereotyping is an issue that affects all ages, genders, and races. Not all stereotypes are bad, but when you maliciously stereotype it becomes a problem. In S.E.

The greasers live on the east side and are known as “hoods”.

The story takes place in the east side of Tulsa Oklahoma, in the 1960’s. The main character Ponyboy is part of the greaser group, with Johnny, Darry, Dally, Sodapop, Two-Bit, and Steve.

Many stereotypes of African culture have emerged due to western literature and media and first hand accounts of explorers. Things Fall Apart offers a view into the truth and reality of African cultures, which are often misconceptualized by these stereotypes. Acebe shows how African society functions well without assistance from foreign travelers. In Things Fall Apart, Achebe counters the imperialist stereotypes of Africa by keeping certain words in the Igbo language, as opposed to translating them into English, to fight back against the spreading western culture and to embrace their own way of life.
