ARRGHHH! I'm so tired of hearing people whine about so-and-so group when they aren't even effected by them. Have you ever been subject to someone sterotyping you with a certain group and hating you because of it?

Yeah, I'm Asian so people think I'm naturally smart or whatever. Some of my old classmates though I was too smart for my own good. >.>"

I just got mad because some jerk was sterotyping vegetarians to be rabid Peta people. He was such a jerk. |

 I honestly can't stand it when people say bad things about vegetarians. Or well it may just be for all people but I see it a lot with vegetarians. I have a couple of friends that are vegetarian and Josh's sister is one as well. I think its great that you guys decided to do that but I wouldn't blame you for getting mad though.

My friend and I had a discussion not too long ago about people who are extra proud of their heritage and instead of coming off as proud, they seem to be condescending. I guess it just goes to show that you don't have to directly attack someone.
I get stereotyped a lot for being a farm kid. People think I should be a redneck or something... like I should listen to country music and wear hand me down overhalls. LOL. It doesn't really bother me though. There are some old timers around here who are rude to people when they find out that they are German. They act like it's post WWI or something. Like they want to go back to lynching German's for just being German. |

I try not to toss stereotypes onto other people because I know I wouldn't like it, but that's just me being an open-minded tree-hugging hippie or something like that. >_> |

I'm wear black. I never talk to many people because of shyness. Peopl think I'm a freak.
Honestly, I could care less. I hate judgemental people who base their opinion on me before they've even said a word to me. It gets on my nerves but everyone does it. What can one do but take it as it comes? Eh. I get used to it.

I'm suppose to be smart at everything, when in reality, I'm not. |

There are these racist people in a few of my classes and on my bus... Whenever someone of another race that looks funny walks by, they often make comments. I try hard not to smack them
