How we find comfort in categories and labels. We feel at home and able to gain insight and understand another by giving others labels, parts, characters to play. We feel we can manage and control the others in our world and our world in general.
It makes sense and we can eliminate the chaos somewhat, and make it liveable. It makes it easier because we don't have to work hard, try to figure that person out, put out heart out in the line. We can fit them into one particular stereotype and then be done with it. We won't have to search for ambitions, values, goals, motivations, past, history, dreams, heartbreaks before we judge another person. We don't want to stretch out the hand that of understanding and kindness we want out of others.
