I have a stereotypical view of swans that causes me to hate all of them
Are you actually joking right now? How could you possibly hate all swans?
I can't stand what they are like when they are in flight.
I like swans, myself. It's okay that you have your own opinions of them, though.
I thought you are going to talk me out of it.
I don't think that I need to, because while I think swans are great it is okay for you to have your own opinion. It isn't like you'll be meeting a lot of swans in your lifetime either way.
