Breaking Stereotypes?

We have advanced in many ways, profoundly in technology but it doesn't take more than 5 seconds to stare at someone holding a non-touch mobile phone with total contempt. All the meme's on phones getting smarter and people dumber is actually a no brainer.
Judging a book by its cover might be an old proverb, but judging a person by their appearance doesn't seem to get away....  

We have adopted the western culture in many ways, be it from the choices of clothing to watching television programmes like Game of Thrones (uncensored nudity)....but it doesn't take more than a glimpse to judge somebody with a crop top or just two opposite genders casually having a pep talk over a cup of coffee.

We certainly do enjoy a little ogling  and a little stalking of our favourite crushes...(that little is not really 'little', it goes beyond each individual's craziness) but nobody hesitates to satirise an open relationship. Freedom of expression has no place in this world? 

We undoubtedly have had our share of moment of embarrassment and unconscious awkward acts, but nope it doesn't put a little sense to not make a parody of another person. And we thought that was funny and cool.

And lastly,

Everyone, in every religion...believed, believes and will continue to believe in love.
The famous Radha & Krishna ,Mumtaz & Shahjahan, Eve & Adam, Laila & Majnu and even Bonnie & Clyde love stories. 
But it doesn't take a second to oppose love marriages. How can someone possibly shut their feelings? One is expected to be stoic ,because their feelings are not even taken into consideration?

And how are we going to break these stereotypes? 
If rules are meant to be broken, then so do stereotypes.

Listen to your heart -its not always wrong (this is another stereotype)
And outweigh it with your brain.
