You know, I strongly disagree with your example. I happen to be one of
the top HS downhill racers in my state. Your stereotype about women and
skiing is completely unjustified. Go find something else to debunk.
(I admit that the average woman who goes skiing doesn't necessarily
race, however, the point is that you're speaking entirely based on your
stereotypes of the women you saw - not from actual experience.)
Not ironically, some of the best female racers I know are also some of
the sexiest women I know.
I am assuming at this time that you have not spoken to either of the two
women in the picture, and therefore know nothing about their hobbies (I
don't, either). You are, thus, speaking based on your stereotypes.
