HK, I realize that you can't make sweeping generalizations here but do you agree that there is always some truth behind stereotypes?

There is some truth to that picture. Black slaves did eat a lot of watermelon, along with pigs feet, ham hocks and other foods that were plentiful and unwanted by the Plantation owners. That's how that stereotype started.

Look, speaking as a person of Scandinavian heritage, I'm a rarity. MOST Norwegians and Swedes are unemotional, reserved and calm. Just rent any Ingmar Bergman film and see for yourself.

It's not so much that stereotypes are TRUE, just that there IS some truth behind the formation of all stereotypes. For example: All people whose board names start with a 'C' and end in a 'K' have huge cocks.

Some stereotypes are based in various ways on some form of truth, but often, as with the already talked about "watermelon" stereotype, it's something that's long out of date and no longer accurate...what, only blacks like watermelon these days?

I believe the phrase you're looking for is that some stereotypes have "a kernel of truth."
Other stereotypes are based on pure ignorance, distrust and fear.

I went to Public School. The black guys in the locker room were hung like horses. Some were even shaving. And that was in the 5th grade.
