It's sort of like a Rorschach test. What you see reveals things about you and your thoughts.
This is a flawed method of thinking though, there are plenty of factors that go into what you think. If you're aware of and trying to avoid a negative stereotype, you're just as likely to fall into the "he doth protest too much" as someone who demonstrates that stereotype.
It is not a 100% accurate factor. It relies on presumed stereotype "boxes" that people are put in, and who presumed and on what basis.
