with a lot of people these days, they do judge a book by its cover. It really annoys me so much. People judge me and they just don't want to be my friend because of the way I look. It does sadden me because I know within, I have a good heart that I would like to share with people.

I think Oh well, it is their loss.

Personally, I don't think that stereotyping will ever stop. It will keep going and going. I am just getting too use to it.

Not really. Here in my country people don't really base your character by the way you look. Although it can't be avoided that sometimes people misjudge your character, but it's not as worse as what you are experiencing.

Well atleast that's what I've observed. I don't completely judge a person based on his/her physical appearance. And I don't think people judge me by the way I look too.

I hate the stereo typing these days! All the people in my village, think that i am a 'gothic' just because my hair is black! I mean what the hell! And because i wear a little bit of eyeliner im also a goth!
