Who are we ?

Before we are even born it seems like our life are predestined in which in mean by race, physical appearance, gender and sexuality. With having our previous generation such as our grandparents, mothers and fathers we are brought into different cultures that we come to be used to and accept. Many cultures are mostly based of off race in which different races practice different beliefs and incorporate different conviction into their society. Although culture doesn't completely define who we later grow to become it does play a great significant role as we grow up and view the world. Stereotyping
leads to categorizing which really puts people in shallow enclosed rooms of which is which and who is who. Nowadays people assume what you based of your physical appearance as well as your personality , the quote "Judging a book by its cover" is being displayed in our today`s society. For example many people believe that those who are Asian are good math or that people are Mexican have more then just their nuclear family living with them or that black people only wearing sandals with socks. Many of these accusation are still believe till this day, and it is really shows the maturity that our generation as well as others have . So when someone ask what are you , just be straight forward and honest on what you are and how you accept yourself because people will misjudge you and will assume the typical answer of what are you .
