Stereotyping is a useful survival mechanism. The primivative man couldn't just think one lion is dangerous because the others didn't attack him(yet). He must think all lions are dangerous(this is in essence a stereotype) and thereby staying alive because he avoids them.
However it has become obsolete(and again your being hard headed by ignoring what everyone is saying). People are different, not all psycopaths(I talking about the condition about not having a concionce not the killing) go on to killing people, therefore we should not stereotype them as such.
Stereotypes are generally damaging and prevent people from living their lives to the fullest because of people judging them by them.
