Probably. I don’t really have much personal experience with this, maybe I’m too “old” for my friends to have caught onto this trend -but it doesn’t really seem very different from using stereotypes as name-calling at any other time. Then again, maybe it is regional, because I can’t think of my sisters or any of their friends ever tossing that label out. Either way, I am sure it isn’t much different than stereotyping “preps” or “nerds” as you said. I think the terms and the stereotypes probably change with time, but it all has roots in the same ground. I don’t do it, personally, but then again in high school I was the “goth” girl that dated the “jocks” and the “preps” and the “nerds,” so I guess those distinctions have never been especially important to me on a personal level.
