Yes. You can't change another persons preception on anything. Only you can change your perception and the way you percieve things. But remember, perception changes over time and with new life experiences. Be careful on what and how you percieve things...you may be cutting yourself short from gaining valuable knowledge, insight, experience.

No
I believe every person is the person society perceives them to be. I am but one drop in a huge body of water.
The term person implies recognition by a society. It is a term of recognition and entitlement, hence; if I call my chihuahua a person and we all agree that chichuhuas are persons then he is a person, and all the cocker spaniels are just dogs and angry dogs for being excluded from society.
Sadly, wars have been fought and people killed over this recognition. And, it takes a great many perspectives to fight a battle let alone a war.
Now you have made me have to teach the philosophy of law as relates to citizenship and what makes you a person and people are falling asleep.
Shameful. : )

yes and no. yes because if you percieve a person a certain way then in your mind the person is what you believe them to be - no, because we all see the world through 'filters' that may not reflect reality at all.

Or perhaps, I am the person I percieve everyone else to be...

Nope but you can still percieve them to be anything you want. Don't make it true.

Never, sometimes they are not even the person they perceive themselves to be.

no because sometimes your perception of someone may be affected by external influences.

** Absolutely not! Our perception can be clouded by so many variables!
