How does a stereotypical Jock relate to the world?

Asked by wundayatta (58722points) December 17th, 2011

You meet someone who is known as a stereotypical jock. What would you expect them to be like? How would you expect them to behave in situations, such as getting a job, being on a date, having to get a sibling out of trouble, or getting caught in a lie?

Would they change the way they are over time, as the distance from the time when they were a sports hero grew further? Would you expect them to have any particular politics?

I don’t want any namby pamby—“it depends” crap. There is no depending. You make all the choices about this person and they fit your stereotype. There is no right or wrong here. This is more a kind of Rorschach test on your associations with the idea of the Jock.

If you were involved with a jock, as friend or colleague or romantically, what do you think would go well and where would you have problems?
