A stereostype is when someone gives you a label or a certain image that you fit, but in games there can be more ways to stereotype a charcter that is designed in a game.
The main ways you can spot a stereotype in a character, the way you do this is by looking at feautures like the gender,sexuality,characteristics,cloths.
sexuality
The sexuality in games generally focusing on muscularity, and more towards the sexual aspects of a player, this is mainly shown in Fighter games with woman having larger chests and then men being a lot bigger and more built and muscled then the women, but the women in the games are skinny and small but with larger chests then most other woman in games.
The Gender of the player also comes into effect, not on stats if playing a MMO but in what you can get during the game, the main example for this is Same armour different style by this i mean Men being all heavily armoured and women in the same armour will just have a bikini armour and some shoulder pads if lucky, so the Gender in game changes everything from the way you look and some times fight.
This just all depends on the game that is being played it is mainly in MMO type games.
