Categorizing people based on limited attributes can lead to making incorrect assumptions and poor decisions. Seeking advice or guidance exclusively from individuals of a particular religion, profession, gender or other single attribute fails to consider the complexity of people and situations. Relying on overgeneralized categories can result in overlooking a person's full background, expertise and character.
