Are you prejudice?

Question

If yes, is it because of upbringing or an experience(s) you had?

Answer 1

No, I don't think I'm prejudiced. I grew up around a mixture of people. We liked each other for who we were, not the color of our skin.

Answer 2

Yes,From my own personal experiences. I find so much wrong with the black culture. 75% of babies born out of wedlock. Young men entering a life of crime etc. Some cultures come to America and succeed with little or no problems. Kids go to college well mannered ect. Many blacks blame society for there problems,it's like they sit there in there own funk and complain.
My parents live next to a park in a very nice upper-middle class neibhorhood. The blacks started using the basketball courts every thing was ok for a year or two. Then trash everywere,loud cursing,puplic urination and loud music. It got to the point where local people stopped going to the park.One neibhor of my parents tried talking to the kids,"most are in there early 20's". He got a broken windshield and four flat tires for his trouble. Finally we had a talk with the police chief and the head of parks and recreation. The end result,basketball courts were taken down sad, but it solved the problem.
I will try to judge people one by one,and there are blacks in work who don't display these traits. But for me I wish to distance myself from rude and disrespectable behaviour.

Answer 3

no but i grew up around prejudice. i am 20 now and i have worked on myself for years to change the prejudiced attitudes influenced on me from people around me in my teenage and childhood years. it has worked and i feel so much happier within instead of having these ridiculous narrow views and restricting who i can and cannot date. when someone from the past comes up to me and talks rubbish about sexual orientation and race i turn around and walk away. prejudice rubs off and is contagious. do not listen, agree or have it in your presence. remove it because it is the most hateful, unhappy and negative thing that you will ever have in your life. peace :)

Answer 4

I am prejudice towards fundamentalist Christians. I used to be one myself but I was very hurt by never living up to their standards and was actually placed in physical danger.
On the one hand, I say "to each their own" because Christian fundamentalism does work for some people and I am happy for them, but on the other hand, it makes me cringe because I know first hand the harm that it can cause.

I am now free to be an un-closeted bisexual as well.

Answer 5

I was brought up to love and respect every one no matter what. Now that I am all grown up, can't stand Spanish people. Here in South Florida they get all the jobs and they can't speak a lick of English to save their life.

I hate it when I call an organization and for language preferences the say "press 1 for Spanish or 2 for English. This is AMERICA SPEAK ENGLISH PLEASE!!!

Answer 6

NOPE! Not at ALL!!! I have NO reason to be! Everone was born as God's child, no matter what race, sexual orientation, etc.

Those things are usually taught to people. They are "programmed" to bash the people they think are not good enough or whatever you want to say! THOSE (teachers/students) are the LOSERS b/c they miss out on so many GREAT people!!!!!

Answer 7

I do not consider myself to be a person that is prejudiced, but I think as humans we all have our prejudices. The key is recognizing them, and putting logic to them and moving past them.

Answer 8

Yes I am, because I watch TV and see what is happening around the world.

Answer 9

No, I'm not. From the time I was a small child, I was exposed to people from all races, nationalities, sexual preference, etc. So I never thought much about it or judged people by it.

Answer 10

I don't think I'm prejudice I just have moral standards that I live my life by I don't hate anyone because of the color of their skin.
