Answer to Question 1

Stereotyping is viewing everyone in a certain group as alike instead of as individuals.

Answer to Question 2

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
