Do people stereotype you because you listen to dubstep?

[kpnutnut]

Automatically people decide I'm a ganja fiend.

bingo
besides the people who stereotype and base their identity on a music genre tend to be in high school

My entire phone memory is filled with dubstep. my laptop is filled with all kinds of shit. some rnb some hip hop even some cold play, grime, DnB, but mostly dubstep.

Sometimes yeah but I mainly get, oh you don't know what dubstep is. So I just whatever. All my mates know what I am into so I very rarely talk about music with anyone else.

And yes, I listen to plenty of other stuff besides dubstep, even if its become one of my sole listening habits ha. It's too diverse!

[particle-jim]

sometimes, people just assume i love teh wobbelz so i correct them via the medium of anger

[LA_Boxers]

Yeah.........everyone thinks im super cool and amazing!

[kpnutnut]

lol i find that i get stereotyped into smoking/angry person sort of thing...

[jj_17]

Generally I struggle to see how anyone can be stereotyped for listening to dubstep (unlike perhaps e.g. metal where you go to a gig and predictably see loads of fat men with long hair wearing black band-branded clothing)... perhaps the only thing I can think of that is even stereotypable (is that a word) is a gang of mephedrone-filled kids moshing and punching people whilst watching Doctor P or Excision or something... for me, that part of the 'dubstep' scene has become a stereotype, in a way

[laurent__duval]

no.

[DZA]

Nope but couldnt give a shit if they did

I remember a couple of years back where if you said you were into dubstep people automatically assumed you were a ketamine user.

But that was when ketamine was all the rage.
