Default Prejudice

Do you feel you are prejudiced towards a certain group... knowingly or unknowingly?
Simon cowells comment 'Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse' at the sight of an overweight contestant on BGT...
The outcry BEFORE the airing of the C4 documentary 'The undateables'...

Here are a series of test to show any inherant prejudices you may have. beware you might not like what you see

I am prejudice. I judge people on their appearance. I don't care about it though, if they don't want to be judged I say they should try look better.

I think most of us are prejudiced in some form or other about different things. I personally am prejudiced against morons, such as Simon Cowell...

Regarding the Independent article:

"Seventy per cent of Britons would not consider having sex with someone who had a physical disability, according to the most recent survey of the nation's opinions on sex. Just over one in four would not rule out the possibility, while only 4 per cent have had sex with someone with a physical disability."

Seventy percent of people are pretty shallow. Some people are very superficial. Whilst I acknowledge that first impressions count, and that looks are normally the first thing that most of us notice, a personality is a pretty determining factor in a relationship. Why anyone would rule out having sex with a person who has a physical disability is beyond me? Never say never.

Well if the question is purely about sex then most people would answer primarily with attractiveness in mind

Physical attractiveness? Of course (although sex goes deeper for some), but why would they rule out the possibility? Just because someone has a physical disability does not necessarily make them any less attractive. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder anyhow.

I was disgusted. It's worry to think that some people feel like that. Hopefully they mature soon

I am not I hope prejudiced,(except maybe against Cheryl Cole),Simon Cowell's comment when the opera duo came on was at first annoying and then after he had to eat his words sickening at his backtracking,
He had already judged that guy on his appearance when he made that comment,I found that really bad from him on BGT actually.

Simon is a very shallow man Joey,why do you think it's always the cutsy boy or the pretty girl that always wins X Factor? the same seems to happen on BGT by the looks of things.
