it's best to try to avoid stereotypes and typical tropes while writing it fanfics, they come off as lazy and can even be offensive.

here are some tropes and stereotypes that you should definitely avoid.

JOHN AND JANE DOE'S
we've all seen these characters somewhere. it's like they have no faults!!
either that or they are extremely pretty and beautiful and do absolutely nothing wrong but get abused and shit.
it's annoying.

extremely annoying

KISS SAVES ALL
now, im not talking about the kiss between ben and beverly. im talking about the kisses where the main character is having like a mental breakdown or such and the love interest kisses them and then suddenly.
her depression is cured. her parents stopped fighting. and all her problems are solved !
just.

no

REMEMBER, IM THE COOL ONE
where the oc is cool. but the author needs to remind you of it 2057 by having her do all the the bad ass shit. like in it, they'll like have their oc come in during mikes fight and help him.
no. ew
stop it.

PEOPLE OF COLOR
i've seen so many stereotypes of poc people that's it's really just too much for one section in this chapter.

just don't use stereotypes. it's rude and it definitely comes off as rude.

do ya research

hope this helped 💕
