Many Sensors have musical or artistic abilities that I admire. I wouldn't describe them as uncreative. Both Sensors and Intuitives create, just in different ways.
My mother, one of the sweetest people I know, is an ISFP. She's a gentle soul, who is patient with my quirks and eccentricities. I wouldn't have wanted a different type for my mother.
A great deal of the bias against Sensors is inspired by unpleasant childhood memories of being teased by individual popular or athletic Sensors for being odd (INTJ), flaky (ENFP), dreamy (INFP), absent-minded (INTP), and the like. But I recall ISTJs, in particular, also being teased without mercy, so being picked on isn't exclusive to the Intuitive experience. It's just that Intuitives are the majority here on this forum.
