What stereotypes do you NOT go against?
As I said in the other thread, I'm Indian, and yes, I am a computer/science/math "whiz." Now shut the hell up.

4. I wear glasses and I like to read ...
...and got fairly high marks in school. And I'm consumed by guilt whenever I think I might be disobeying my parents' wishes.

Yes, I'm Asian.

8. Um... gotta go with I like to drive fast.
A weakness for sportscars and fast driving. I am pretty atypical for a guy beyond that. Or at least what the expectation is supposed to be.

I suppose some would say I tend to be an Alpha Male at times. But that really only triggers when I get the impression that someone else is trying to be the Alpha Male and is doing it badly. I am really sort of an antiAlpha Male. You can imagine how I respond to unwarranted authority. :evilgrin:
