Of course I judge others. I do it all the time. It's human nature and anyone who says that they don't judge is lying, to themselves most of all. I judge by appearance, by grammar, by speech, by written communication, by many things. I try not to let it stop me from appreciating them as human beings. But the fact is that we all have filters and we use them to screen out the things we don't want to or don't have the capacity or time to deal with. We can only handle so much and our filter or judgement help us with this.

I do not judge others, but I do make comments on them. We cannot avoid that because we have to determine whether we like to have them as friends or not. We have to know if they do good or bad so that we can decide whether or not to join them.

Of course I do. I'm human. We all do, because it's in our nature to do so. People can say that they don't and they can genuinely try not to, but on a fundamental level, they do. Let's face it, we as human beings, are an extremely judgemental lot. We make assumptions based on the way someone is dressed, the way they talk and a millieu of other things that make impressions on us. We can't help it, anymore than we can help breathing.

Unfortunately, I do, although I'm teaching myself to stop. As I judge, so I will be judged. It's hard not to, with the media saturated with that sort of thing, and constantly creating labels for people. It's hard not be affected by it. I don't want to judge, at all, so if I catch myself doing it, I'll kick myself (in my head), and turn off that bad TV show.
