I've heard about several stereotypes for Mount Holyoke, such as that Mount Holyoke girls party a lot and such.

some stereotypes... smart..motivated...gay

We are stereotyped as being a very homosexual community or as being desperate for guys. I think that there is somewhat of a divide between the students. We are also looked at as a very intellectual group of women.

The stereotypes are awfully conflicted for Mt. Holyoke. I think people assume you are a butch lesbian who plays rugby or a pearl wearing Daddy's girl who rides for the equestrian team. Does not make much sense trying to squish both identities into one student.

Lipstick lesbians. Desperate skanky straight girls. Nerds.

Lesbian, snobby
