Do you judge people on appearances?

MajorCriiimes [Edit] [Delete] 13:34, 15 January '13

I'm afraid I do on instinct, but then I think it through and I tell myself to be more open-minded and stop being a cardigan-wearing ponce. There was a darts match on the TV the other day where both competitors were broad-shouldered, shaven headed and covered in tattoos, with gold sovereign rings and tacky St George's Cross designs on their darts. Now I'm not one of those touchy over-PC types but I just put two and two together and I thought "This event is like a BNP convention for people who shove their wives' faces into the gravy on Christmas Day."

Then again I came to my feelings and realised I was being an absolute cliched bedwetter. Some people like a manly, proudly working-class image.. it doesn't mean ONE BIT that they're violent or bigots. Having said that, why do there seem to be no black darts players?
