Have you ever been discriminated against whether it was for your race or sex?

I have no idea if it's true that EVERYONE will experience some form of discrimination but you'd almost have to live under a rock to avoid it. I have been discriminated against for my race, sex, age, sexual orientation, height, weight and posssibly others i didn't notice. There have been jobs I didn't get because of these factors but I was better off not working under those conditions anyway. I have been harassed by police "for my own good" for being in the "wrong" neighborhood(a pretty white girl could get raped, never mind I was on my own front porch). I was almost beaten with hockey sticks because some idiots thought I was a gay man and not a woman. However, most people have treated me fairly.

Both. Minority women are given bonus points on Civil Service exams, that white men are not.

l've been discriminated against for being skinny, also because my girlfriend was native American.

Certainly, and I expect more of it!
