Answer 1

D (?)

Step-by-step explanation:

defintion of stereotype:

to believe unfairly that all people or things with a particular characteristic are the same. It's not fair to stereotype a whole group of people based on one person you don't like. or

a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing.

D Makes the most sense as being the answer-- simply because it's stating something 'bold' and saying it towards a specific group of people;

here the description of a housekeeper; Housekeepers are responsible for cleaning and reporting any safety hazards to the homeowner or manager in charge. They must complete tasks like vacuuming, sweeping, emptying trash cans, dusting shelves, cleaning windows, and mopping floors. Some Housekeepers change linens, wash dishes, and do light ironing and laundry.

So while keeping order in a household is what they do, saying that is their sole job is overlooking a lot of what they actually do, or to put it simply D fits the definition the most.
