The stereotype goes that jocks are dumb, shallow, insensitive and only care about drinking and sports. They pick on other people who aren't jocks and only date pretty, skinny girls. What do you think? Is the stereotype usually right?

I would have to say that a lot of the times, this stereotype is right - but not all time. There are some really sensitive jocks out there that can be really cool sometimes.

I assume you're talking about the 230lb football players who slap each others butts and see who can smash the most beer cans on their head? This stereotype does fit, quite often. However, I have come across a few jocks who are pretty nice.

does it really usually fit? I know lots of jocks and barely any of them are like that. Maybe when they get together or something. I just know that my crush is a major jock (football, baseball and basketball) and he's not like that at all. And he's always getting stereotyped. Like, a lot of people hate him because he's the tall, blonde, hot, popular, football guy and they just assume he's stupid and mean. Maybe most jocks aren't like him then...

there are some jocks at my school who fit the stereotype, and some that don't. it's funny because my school doesn't make a big deal out of our athletes... sure, we have pep rallies... but no one cares. our cheerleaders suck, and only our baseball team ever does well. there are a few guys on the baseball team with really bad sex reputations... forcing some girls to give them head :/

We don't make our athletes out to be gods (or goddesses). Not that I've noticed at least. We've definently got a few of the stereotypical cheerleaders, but it's far from being all of them. The "jocks" are strange. Some come close to fitting that stereotype...they discuss drinking, football, wrestling, and weight training to NO end. A few are definently the type to smash beer cans on their head. But they don't date the pretty, popular cheerleader types, and quite a few are in honors classes. (I don't know how well they do, I don't ask them, but hey, they're still in there.)

It's just the popular athletic boys who are like that. I read in an article once that boys who bully are more likely to be popular than girls who bully. So boys are supposed to be mean and tough, while girls should be pretty and meek. Erm, no.

I admit it. Jocks are one of my prejudices. I'm not saying all are like this (I know of a few who never were), but I've taken enough crap from jocks to feel that maybe the stereotypes ARE right.
I know it's not true for all people, but I can't help but get angry at just about any jock.

Almost all of the jocks at my high school were idiots. Sadly, some of them were in the advanced classes that I was taking. I'm really not quite sure how that happened.

^^^ I said that a lot of the jocks at MY school were idiots. But then again, most of the people were morons, so maybe sports don't have anything to do with it.

I like Jocks !
Yeah occasionally there are a few rude ones, but there are always a few rude ppl in every group or ppl. I only usually date "jocks." I like athletics guys, with rock hard abs. I say, " If I can have rock hard abs, they need to too." Their usually nice to me. And it's not because I'm a cheerleader, they really don't care.
