But what people don’t always realize is that these ideas exist with the white male as well, as seen in the you tube video, “Ultimate Lax Bro”. This plays off the stereotype of lacrosse players, basically saying that all lacrosse players are rich, stupid, self obsessed, and went to boarding school in the northeast. This video proves that there is basically predetermined racial ideas for all classes of people.
