This quote was spoken by Ivy Compton-Burnett who states that we tend to believe that appearances are what define a person's self and who we see them as. We don't take into account the fact that they can be anything or anyone regardless of their image. An example of a misinterpreted stereotype based on appearance would be giant characters in all types of media. Upon hearing the word giant, many form a mental image of a very large and intimidating being who has a disfigured stature with repulsive features. This mental image leads many to label giants as unintelligent, slow, and aggressive beings. The makers of Big Fish, Jack the Giant Slayer and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix were convinced that the giants' appearance is what labels them as unintelligent and aggressive beings. Intelligence is defined by the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills, and ideology based on prejudice or discrimination against any real, fictional, or mythical race of beings of superhuman size and possessing superhuman abilities is known as Giantisim.

In Big Fish, Jack the Giant Slayer, and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Karl, the legendary giant warriors, and Grawp were portrayed as unintelligent beings based on their appearance. The filmmakers chose to delve deeper into their characteristics to maintain the prejudicial stereotype of giants, demonstrating them as gigantists. The misjudgment of these characters based on their image encourages the prospect of gigantism in all types of media.
