Do you ever feel discriminated against?

Question

If so, why? For what reason? I.E. - race, sex, creed, religion...

If you had to 'group' up the people discriminating against you, what group would you say does this the most....?

Good point Rae! I might have worded this "are you ever discriminated against" .. :))

Answer 1

no offense, but ppl dont know how hard middle-class white ppl have it.

now b4 u go on saying 'oo that son of a ***** is gonna start complaing about how bad white ppl have it' hear me out

as a middle class citizen, i get no special benefits. no one gives me free money. the government gives poor ppl free money, and rich kids get free moeny from their parents. i have to work for every penny i have

as a white person, everyone thinkgs i have it good. no one EVER thinks u cant do something cuz ur white. they think white ppl are like gods, even though that is so far away from the truth. i have just as many problems with my homework as any teen has.

as a middle-class white guy, i have to work for everything i get. no one is giving me any breaks, no ones cuttin me any slack. i'm EXPECTED to do good bcuz im just ur average joe. how many middle class white guys do u see become huge sucsesses in the world? most of the big names out there were very poor or very rich growing up. u never see the average joe acieve bcuz no one is there to help him. he has to help himself if he wants to get anywhere in the world. and i plan to do just that, work my way to the top. its not easy though

Answer 2

I am a woman in my 50's. When I go into an establishment to buy something, I have a very difficult time getting any service. I have noticed clerks and store personnel tripping over each other helping out young women and ignoring me. I have to search for help and stand there waiting while they assist the little "barbie dolls" first. I have more than once left places in anger. I have also written several letters to the home offices of many companies complaining of "ageism". Yes, I am being discriminated against but I will not just go away quietly.

Answer 3

I sometimes feel discriminated against because I am a divorced single mom....So, many times I try not to act like I'm single and when I fill out paperwork for my kids school or sign my kids up for sports, I don't give any information about my ex other than what is necessary like his work info or cell phone. I don't give his address or home phone (many times the questions don't even ask because it's assumed we are married). It's funny...divorce is so common, but it's still looked upon as a bad thing. Maybe it's the area where I live, but I hate letting people know I am divorced because of the fear of being discriminated against.

Answer 4

Feel: I don't feel discriminated because I don't see anyone different than me. Only people that categorize others feel that way. I have friends from other races.
Now that I have been told discriminated words that is different. That has come from every race even my own! But that has happen maybe 5 times the least in my lifetime in companies or agencies!

Answer 5
