Instruction: Come up with 4 or 5 stereotypes of Taiwanese students and write a brief description for each stereotype.

Club guys

Club guys are highly devoted in the club as it plays an essential part in their college life. They are enthusiastic and good at socializing more often than not. Thus, they are popular and welcome among peers.

Nerds

    They are attentive to their studies. They are obsessed to a particular subject, crave for detailed knowledge and pursue extraordinary academic performance or achievements. They tend to have few friends owing to their poor interpersonal skills.

Preps (fancy guys)

    This type of people tend to be more fashionable than others around them. They enjoy reading fashion magazines, follow the latest trends, and purchase plenty of cosmetics as well as clothes. Before going out, they (female) would definitely wear make-up because they are like fish out of water going anywhere without make-up. Preps usually catch everyone’s eyes while walking on the street. They are the ones who are always on the cutting edge of fashion.

Geeks (otaku)

    These people usually stay at home, watching animations all day long. Also, they play video games sometimes. They cannot live without these things. Simply put, their heads are always full of animations, Japanese and video games.
