kitty I do agree that some people seem to have very strong views with limited tolerance for those whose views do not accord with their own. Why should it matter whih newspaper one read's? Some seem to think that there is no such thing as a benefit scrounger but I don't think anyone has said that everyone on benefits is a scrounger. How can a person be blamed for the school they went to, it was not usually their choice!

Yes, I am very definitely prejudiced against:

Intolerance of any viewpoint
Bullying
Arrogance
Patronising
The word should.

I refuse to list what I am not prejudiced about because of my list above!

We have had various threads where people have expressed their views quite forcefully about which newspaper others read blush, people who are supposed benefit-scroungers or have been to public school etc, etc, but how good are you at seeing people and situations from a non-prejudiced point of view?

My feeling is that we all (especially as we get older) have different preconceptions but, if we accept that we have them, we can then learn to ignore them or work round them.

What do you think?
