I think its interesting how just thinking about a stereotype can make us embody it. But I also think it can be used as a bit of an excuse, maybe even an easy way out, like you don't have to try hard enough. I've never been too great at math. But maybe it isn't that thinking I was bad at math made me be bad at it, maybe it was just that I knew it would be an easier thing to do if I could just blame the stereotype than myself for not trying hard enough.
