Aim: How can sexual stereotyping be harmful and hurtful?

Class notes:
Challenging Sexual stereotyping:
Point out the facts (It is not true that people can choose their sexual orientation *do you choose to be straight?)
Ask for more information (Why do you believe that?)
Listen and learn (Be conscious of your own stereotyping and assumptions)
Challenge assumptions (Just because one person did that, doesn’t mean that all ___ do)
