People Being Stupid & Judgmental

It's that if you don't know anything about someone before you meet them, you are more likely to get to like them. However, if you have heard stuff about them, or made assumptions about them just by what they are dressed like, you will never get to really know them.

I'm not saying that I ever judged people without giving them a chance first, but it is true. If you and no one you know knows a specific person, you will likely hang out with that person without shame of any sort, and have a really great time. Now, if you have heard rumors about a specific person, you are not likely to like them. If they are good rumors, you judge them based on whom you heard the rumors from. If they are bad rumors, you take them at their negative face value (this is so you fit in with your friends, without any problems. You will dislike a person, if your best friend dislikes them, while that other person may be someone who would become one of your best friends, would you give them a chance).

Judging by clothes is another problem people have. I know this for certain. I used to judge people on what they dressed like, then I just stopped caring. When I was younger, people who wore black were goths. Goths, were bad people. Well, I myself wear black and all things considered, I'm a good kid.

People define themselves by what they wear. Others define you based on what you wear. I think everyone should just simply dress the way the find best, and not judge others by what they wear. However, I know it's not that simple.

People will always judge people based on what they wear, and what they hear, not what they themselves learn about another person. All I can say is give other people a chance. You may find that they are not quite what you thought they would be like.
