It’s just a heuristic. It can be useful sometimes and completely wrong other times. It’s just important to remember that. Don’t rely on it to make definitive judgements. It will only guide you a bit. Maybe.

It's always better to judge a person as an individual. Never assume a person will match a stereotype; let them show you the person they are.

Be aware of such a stereotype and observe for confirmation, sure, but judge them without solid evidence of their following such stereotypes? Never.

Is the difference between stereotypes and reasonable assumptions always clear?
