Common misconceptions

By (user no longer on site) OP   
over a year ago

Ok, let’s start off by saying that not all stereotypes are true, but for some reason they still can be enough to prejudice someone’s opinion of others. For example, I’m a late 40’s heavyset bald lorry driver. Therefore I must read the sun, drink Stella, have a far right view point and be of lower than average intelligence. In truth, I do read, usually a book or two a week, enjoy fiction but prefer autobiographies of those who’ve lived a life. Drinking, I do like a drink, but not very often, and my drink of choice is normally a rum. Political wise, I am and always have been a labour voter and stand with the nurses in the fight for better conditions. Lastly, intelligence, I’m educated to A level standard, didn’t go to university as didn’t wish to be encumbered with a massive debt so early in life. The reason I’m a lorry driver, is purely because I enjoy being on the road. Ok, there’s my misconception blown apart, let’s hear yours.

Sadly I think one of the most common misconceptions is that all of us gents of a certain age , blue collar workers of all types subscribe to the stereo type as described, like the op I have a similar story and yet when I call into a supermarket on the way home dressed in my work attire, ( overalls and hi viz), people are seemingly shocked when I espouse manners and positive attitude to those around irrespective of their age/gender/appearance etc . That said I do enjoy confounding their prejudices

Misconception: I’m a transgender woman.

Not a man but nearly a woman.

Definitely not a TV or a CD

Do I like cock? Not as much as pussy,

Do I want cock? No

Do I want pussy? Yes my own lol

Am I gay? No am I bisexual?

What misconception of me do you have?

East Sussex

I'm an older woman.

On fab it's assumed that 'i know what I want and how to get it ' , I'm experienced, will have a voracious sexual appetite, be able to teach younger men a trick or two, won't cause drama and will probably be grateful for the attention of a younger man.

It's true I do know what I want but I have no real idea how to get it. Compared to many younger women I don't have a great deal if experience, my sexual appetite could never be described as voracious, it's more gently simmering, I'm really at a loss as to what younger men want to be taught. I won't cause drama, that is correct but I most certainly will not be grateful

Off fab it's assumed that I'm not capable of physical exertion, can't use computers, won't understand most technology or be able to use social media, will dress a certain way and shouldn't have long hair.

I don't fit any of that.

Also it is not sweet, cute or any of the patronising words people use to describe older people holding hands or kissing in public. We're sexual beings capable of showing affection.

You're right, OP - we shouldn't judge any books by their covers, as the old adage goes.

Sorry though that you didn't go to university, if you'd wanted to: it would have been free when you were 18. Not being snarky, but I'm genuinely sad if you missed out on a misconception. Makes me even sadder than some young people will genuinely miss out for financial reasons now, but I digress. Never too late if you still wanted to!

I'm an almost 58 year old Irishman so therefore I must be sexually experienced but struggling on fab and it's in my genes to be a regular drinker.

I'm far from experienced and have only really started this journey 8 years ago but I'm certainly not struggling on here.

I've also never tasted alcohol in my life and have no intention of starting now.

Yep! I think that might have actually hindered me on here somewhat. I knew of the stereotype coming onto Fab so even if chatting for a while, I've rarely been the first to make a move to meet because I've been so scared of that exact thinking, or even being flirted with, I won't be the one to take it further in case they were just being nice and I get tarred with the "pushy" brush.

Misconception:

That I, as a Black man, must have a BBC, must be fine with the objectification and fetishization, and ready for action anytime, anywhere.

Misconception:

That I, as a Black man, am not educated, cultured, or lacking in couth.

The fact is that I am extremely selective about who I get horizontal with on a site like this, and for those that see Black skin and go straight to the stereotypes?

I ignore/block/delete.

Carlisle usually

I'm curvy, that means I must be easy and grateful for any attention from even the most mediocre penii.

I'm gothy and tall, so I must be a dominatrix.

I'm on a sex site, so I must have no standards and put out for literally every faceless idiot that graces me with a message.

I take care to pronounce my words properly, so I must be stuck up.

I've got a big ass, so I must only be interested in BBC.

I'm a masochist, so I must let every alpha dom asshole hurt me without worrying about silly things like consent or attraction.

I wear fishnet stockings and short skirts, so I must be begging for attention and have no right to complain about men's 'natural impulses' when they overstep the boundaries of basic decency. I dress this way so it's all my fault.

I'm solo poly, so I must just be an easy slut with a harem of fuck buddies and have no-one who actually cares about me.

North West

I was a mother at 16, so you can imagine the stereotypes.

Reality: I completed GCSEs while 7 months pregnant. Went back to complete 5 A levels, starting when my son was 2wks old. Went to uni, got a good degree in biology. Have worked constantly since graduating (and during the uni holidays, at weekends etc). Never claimed benefits other than child benefit (which pretty much all families are entitled to).

Etc.

Now I'm a disabled, wheelchair using parent, the latest stereotypes are that I lack intelligence, that if I go out anywhere I must need a carer and that I cannot make my own decisions. If it's noted I'm a parent, people feel the need to step in and try to do things for my daughter which are unnecessary and unwanted. I've been told to my face that it's irresponsible of me to be out alone with my daughter.

Etc.

All of the above might go some way to demonstrating why I'm unwilling to be silenced and may come across as prickly or intolerant. I am only intolerant of stupidity and intolerance itself. I'm actually a very kind and generous person underneath, but I have to trust you before I'm letting you get anywhere near.

I have a First from Oxford, so I must be posh, privileged, stuck-up, arrogant, rich, etc.

Actually I went to a dodgy as hell State school, was poor enough (one parent working as a teacher back in the 90s when teacher pay was dire) to get a University grant, have to constantly be careful with money (no car, no foreign holiday in several years, etc), and I don't remotely think I'm better than other people because of a bit of paper. I've been here 5 months and never mentioned it before.

I did it because I love studying English and that was the best place to learn. That's all.

My child chose to live with his father, therefore I am an awful mother, but nothing is further from the truth. He chose to live with his father because of where he lives currently but when he needs to speak to someone or advice about life, he calls me. I think letting him be happy where he wants to be and me supporting him on his choices, makes me a pretty amazing mum

I get that. I work in adult social care. The assumptions made about me range from thick as mince to “don’t do anything”. I genuinely love what I do, I wouldn’t change it for anything. I and my charges know that the assumptions are untrue & that’s all that matters.

I see so much in my work, I actively try and avoid making assumptions or judgement.

Let's see.

I'm going to try and not reveal too much.

Hear the voice, assume I've had a privileged background. Far from it. Proud scholarship girl here.

I'm poly so I must be looking to marry every single person I have sex with. No, I'm quite content not doing that. Even if the sex is incredible, I'm good.

Another poly thing - that I'm not genuinely happy in either of my relationships. No, it doesn't work like that. They're both a bit of a dick at times but I like them. Like being open about what I want.

I'm ND. So that must mean I really struggle with social interactions. Or you know, functioning day to day. Erm no. Apart from a few obvious tells that close friends spot, you probably won't know unless I've told you. Or you're reading this.

I date men older than me so I must have daddy issues and be a sugar baby. First one? Yeah sure, maybe (this is a joke). Second, bollocks. I'm financially secure. Quite good at being independent.

There are so many daft misconceptions and it's such a shame really. I get that it's easy to quickly assess someone but what about taking people as individuals, who they are?

By definition, they're just as happy with women as other men.

And they're no more likely to push boundaries on a meet than straight guys or straight women.

That is why boundaries are set. Respect the person not the urge. People can cross boundaries on a whole plethora of content. It all falls down to the respect of the individual.

"I'm an older woman.

On fab it's assumed that 'i know what I want and how to get it ' , I'm experienced, will have a voracious sexual appetite, be able to teach younger men a trick or two, won't cause drama and will probably be grateful for the attention of a younger man.

It's true I do know what I want but I have no real idea how to get it. Compared to many younger women I don't have a great deal if experience, my sexual appetite could never be described as voracious, it's more gently simmering, I'm really at a loss as to what younger men want to be taught. I won't cause drama, that is correct but I most certainly will not be grateful

Off fab it's assumed that I'm not capable of physical exertion, can't use computers, won't understand most technology or be able to use social media, will dress a certain way and shouldn't have long hair.

I don't fit any of that.

Also it is not sweet, cute or any of the patronising words people use to describe older people holding hands or kissing in public. We're sexual beings capable of showing affection. "

Absolutely brilliant comment x you are a good looking genuine couple xx yous look half of your age x yous are well capable of teaching younger boys new tricks x i know that people can be too picky about older couples x it's nice to see that yous are still looking beautiful and it should be a privilege for any younger or people nearer your ages to be lucky enough to get a chance to meet yous x

If you saw me on the train to work in London or Dubai in a suit reading the FT you might assume I’m like everyone else I seem to meet & got here pretty much the same way - private or grammar school, strong A levels , top university, one of the big 4.

I left school an awful and violent school at 15 barely passing an exam , had a child at 18, travelled the world building & repairing boats, settled back in uk at 27 and started studying while having 2 more kids.

A LS related misconception.. That guys here will fuck anyone, whilst there may be a proportion who might of course..

On our second visit to a club Mr was the focus of 2 ladies (yeah, lucky him and all..) Separately and both part of a couple..

Neither of which he found attractive and despite politely declining, both were more than a little 'typsy'and wouldn't take the hint..

For my part, I found their attentions and his discomfort amusing at the time. However I apologised as I realised the double standard and he would have stepped in the roles reversed! We've witnessed this on group chats too.. Him being messaged by women individually, but guy's warned not to do so by admins..

A lot of them are misconceptions, yes. Like in my case, the stereotype of "all teenage parents must be claiming benefits and not working" or the chap above who is a wheelchair user pointing out the misconception that "wheelchair users are asexual and/or their genitals don't work [as a rule]."

These are misconceptions/stereotypes.
