Among these examples, which one is NOT an example of stereotypes?

The correct answer is Option (3) → She is a brave person.

Here's why:

Stereotypes are oversimplified and often negative generalizations about an entire group of people based on assumptions or prejudices. They attribute certain characteristics to all members of a group, regardless of individual differences.

"She is a brave person" describes an individual's character trait. It's a specific observation about a particular person, not a generalization about an entire group.

The first three statements ("Group C is lazy," "Tribe A is irrational," and "Community B is coward") generalize characteristics about entire groups, which is characteristic of stereotypes.
