There's something I constantly experience and just irks me everytime. When I meet a new persol down at school or talking to people who work with me in the summer and go to my school ... obviously they ask you if you're in a house and 3 out of 10 times I get ... "Well, a girl your house did THIS" or "I had an AXO in my math class and she was a snot" or "Yeah I went to high school with an AXO and I hated her" or "Ohhhhh ... a face house ... well I wouldn't want to be part of anything superficial." AHHHHH! I think the worst one of all is a girl who's friends with my boyfriend who while she was dropping me off at the house said "oh my don't we have nice cars in the driveway, bunch of daddy's little girls??? you suburban girls are all the same"
Does anyone else experience this?????? I would never think to say things like this!!!!!!!! Where do these people come from?
I'm a nice girl!!! I love my sisters!! Don't insult me!

UofIL AXO , I'm sorry to hear that you're having these experiences. Let's call it what it is:
PREJUDICE; that is "to pre-judge".
When you are told something like that, it makes want to just counter with
"Well, a person with green eyes last night cut me off in traffic, so all green-eyed drivers must be aggressive and have no regard for the rules of the road" or:
"A guy in a red shirt was rude to me, therefore all people in red must be rude".
If you counter with something like that, maybe people will see really how stupid and unfounded their remarks are.
Then again....
