Moving In Stereo (Types)

Edward T goes on another one of his "hippies in Seattle" rants and Hilary says he is boxing people in and creating stereotypes. She says he has a narrow interpretation of people and he gives no credit to people being individuals.

ETM says it's about Sociology, about people behaving certain ways in groups, and he doesn't need to get to know people on an individual basis. He believes he can predict how people are going to behave without even meeting them, simply based on where they come from and how the currently live their lives.

Hilary says this is stereotyping people and that he could be missing a lot of things that could make his life better. ETM counters that he already knows what he likes and what he doesn't and there are some people he just doesn't want to know, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Hilary then brings up his dating life and and a statement he made about who he wants to date and who he doesn't. Then the battle really begins.

Take the children off the streets - this one's a donnybrook for sure!

Enjoy!
