Representation of physical

or mental inability.
 For example, a person maybe missing a
limb or wheelchair bound or be able to
walk and exercise.
Stereotypes
 A widely held but fixed oversimplified
image or idea of a particular type of
person or thing.
Stereotypes of Age
 The stereotypes of age would be that the
elderly would be slow and have grey
hair, teenagers would be moody and
spotty, babies would be crying all of the
time, children would be really energetic
and running around and adults would be
sensible, focusing on their career, maybe
wearing suits.
Stereotypes of Gender
 The stereotypes of gender would be that
the female would be very feminine, and
as portrayed in the media, they’d be
delicate, beautiful and shown to have to
be skinny and always being the ones
needing to be saved where as males will
be shown as
masculine, strong, tough, and be the
savior all of the time. Men are also
stereotyped to have little emotions and
therefor will never cry.
Stereotypes of Ethnicity
 Different ethnic groups are subject to
stereotype. Examples of this would be:
 A Jamaican person would be stereotypically
represented as a Rastafarian person who has
little worries about life.
 An English person would stereotypically have
a stiff upper lip, enjoy drinking tea and be
very patriotic towards Queen and Country.
Stereotypes of Class and
Status
Stereotypes of Sexuality
 People will different sexualities are
stereotyped in different ways, for
example, homosexual males have the
stereotype that they act effeminate by liking
pink, talking slightly girly and walking similar to
female. Homosexual females can either be
stereotyped as feminine or masculine, one
with short hair and a muscly body and the
other with exactly the same characteristics as
a heterosexual female.
Stereotypes of Regional
identity
Stereotypes of physical
ability/disability
 A physically able person would be
stereotypically fit and able to take part in
sporting activities.
 Somebody who has a disability would
stereotypically be segregated from society.
The symptoms of the disability may be
exaggerated for dramatic effect. For
example, a mental illness and its symptoms
may be exaggerated in order for the
audience to be aware of the problems that
the character is facing.
Verisimilitude
 The definition of Verisimilitude is pretty
much just the appearance or being true
or real.
