why do people feel it is necessary to place others in 'groups' based on their external appearance? what personal gratification is gained from the emotional beating of other souls? if anyone has any thoughts on this, please let me know. i don't understand why so many people spend so much time classifying others. style is style. let it be, eh?

It really gets down to people being insecure. They feel that they are better than others if they can just put people in a hole. They are able to deal more easily when they can just put others in a box

How true is that... It just makes me sad that people aren't willing to acknowledge the fact that no matter who or what we are, we share the common base of Humanity. Why is that so difficult? It's true...
