Section 1: Stereotypical Beliefs about a Human Diversity Group
The human diversity group I want to discuss is the Lesbians, Gay, Bisexual, Transsexual, Queer (LGBTQ).

Also, he did not steal anyone’s job because he was a handy man, and work in the crop fields. Pay federal and state taxes like any other citizen. He was a typical macho man because he did not let my mother work. He was the household and provider for 7 siblings. Both of my parents were catholic conservatives. My parents were not homophobic, but their views were based by religion thoughts. They avoid talking about the forbidden topics such as the gay and lesbian society. The only time that my father brought the topic was to promise him that I will get married with a woman and give them grandchildren.
However, the positive stereotype that I have heard about my culture is that we are hard workers. We rather work hard than to beg for money. My parents were not educated, but taught me that importance of education. Also, my father taught me to love and serve my country the same way he did. When he served in the Mexican Army. Currently, I am serving for 19 years 7 months in the Air
