There's an old saying: all stereotypes have some origin in reality. Basically that somewhere, someone did something which gives off the image to the whole group. But there are always ones we, weather intentionally or not, conform to for our specific group. So what are ones which you perpetuate for your group?
For myself, I conform to the Canadian stereotypes of saying "Eh?" a lot and for saying "sorry" a lot, even when neither I nor anyone else around did something wrong (though in my defence everyone I know does this too).
I also speak very loud, which is apparently a regional stereotypy of my rural area for those in the urban area next to ours.
