From looking at the blog I learnt that stereotypes are generalisations made about groups of people which mean that there is less processing to do when meeting new people. These stereotypes make assumptions about people's characteristics based on one aspect of them such as their appearance and social generalisations like this lead to prejudice in society.
I also learnt some stereotypes and anti-stereotypes. For example, woman are stereotypically emotional, irrational and dependent on a man. An anti-stereotype would be a woman who can stand on her own two feet and doesn't need a man to support her.
You seem to have understood the general idea and refer to an example of anti-stereotypes.
