[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 8027733, member: 6801228"] Clearly not, that thing was brutal. [SPOILER="Spoilers about the Show"]You find out after the girls get their "wish" and gain magic, that they essentially become liches, forever children with their souls bound in the gemstones they use for their magic. The witches they fight? Other magical girls who have fallen to despair and grief which twists them into monsters. Of course, the "grief seeds" those witches drop are also the only way to remove the stain of despair from your own soul. So, keep fighting and trying not to die or have your soul destroyed for eternity, and don't think negative thoughts or you will become a monster. There is actually a really wonderful fan-story called the Golden Empire that really gives a great sense of this struggle. [/SPOILER] Ok, let us take a hypothetical. You run a company and you have a spanish worker and a Japanese worker. You have a big overtime project that needs to be done. It is a ton of work. Who do you give it to. According to this stereotype, the Japanese worker, he's harder working and will put in more effort, because that is his culture. But, is that actually true? Even if he is a hard worker, can he handle that work-load? What if he is scared of losing his job, so he won't mention that he is felling overworked, because every time this decision comes up, you want to give more work to the person who will actually do it? This is one of the ways that "positive" stereotypes can be just as bad as bad stereotpyes [/QUOTE]
