Answer

The answer is Isaiah cooking his girlfriend a meat-free dinner because she is a vegetarian.

Explanation
Option 1: Cynthia believing her best friend to be good at math because she is Asian.

This is a stereotype because it involves a generalized belief about a group of people (Asians) being good at math, which is not necessarily true for every individual.

Option 2: Maria assuming her son-in-law is a heavy drinker because he is Irish.

This is a stereotype as it involves a generalized belief about Irish people being heavy drinkers, which is a cultural stereotype and not applicable to every individual.

Option 3: Isaiah cooking his girlfriend a meat-free dinner because she is a vegetarian.

This is not a stereotype. It is based on a specific, known preference of an individual (being a vegetarian), rather than a generalized belief about a group.

Option 4: Pedro assuming his neighbor likes rap music because he is African American.

This is a stereotype because it involves a generalized belief about African Americans liking rap music, which is not true for every individual within that group.
