Since ‘prejudice’ may not be the right word. I’ll explain what I mean by it.

There exist people that are quick to make snap judgments about others. Often based on superficial observations.

They will assume deep insights about a person’s character and personality, based on nothing but a stereotype. Then act accordingly to what they believe that person is like

Example: white girl with coloured hair and tattoos. Some will assume what she likes to do for fun, the music she’s into. Her relationship with her family and her sexual history. All from fucking hair dye and tattoos.

Usually all it takes is confirmation of one thing they guessed being true, to believe they are right about everything else.

Another example is: asian dude who plays videogames. Same thing will happen. It’s crazy.

What’s crazy is that people will act on this “information” as though it is fact.

It happens on here too, frequently. Others see my flair and assume a whole tonne about my life.

How does it apply to dating? Well people carry this attitude into dating and it makes things harder. Their prejudice causes them to write off so many people for traits they have imagined about them that they end up frustrated.
