Example Sentences
- "Yet the old-time fairy tale, having served for generations, may now be classed as “historical” in the children’s library; for the time has come for a series of newer “wonder tales” in which the stereotyped genie, dwarf and fairy are eliminated, together with all the horrible and bloodcurdling incident devised by their authors to point a fearsome moral to each tale."
- "There are too many gratuitous and insulting characters, like Mary Fisher's employee, a stereotyped Latino stud, and the old people in a nursing home who are presented as unindividuated and naively happy."
