Stereotypes I don't fit...
I'm a woman, but I'm taller than most men, and when I've got into physical fights with men I've won far more often than I have lost. One man ended up in hospital.
I've got a diagnoses of asperger's or high functioning autism, but I'm so crap at maths it hurts.
I'm a loving and responsible mother, but I've got arrested more times than I can remember.
I grew up on a farm where I learned to kill hens, skin rabbits etc, but I'm a vegan.
I grew up in the British isles, but speak five languages well. (Most British people think that shouting loudly at foriegners is all the linguistic skills anyone needs.)
I'm a Christian who doesn't hate gays or Muslims.
Stereotypes I do fit.
I'm a woman who absolutely adores babies, and goes cuckoo over their cute, adorable, cuddly natures.
I'm an Irish woman who cooks enough to feed a small village with hardly any ingredients at all.
I do that Irish Momma thing, where if anyone even appears to threaten my baby I go out and pull their ears off.
I'm rubbish at spacial coordination (woman thing? dunno...)
