NO Discrimination here !! (146)
Riya,
I have seen it as well as Ship, especially where I live and where I grew up. Women have been some of the worst, but also in that same aspect, women have been some of the best about it as well.
Two sides of the same coin, I think.

I t amazes me , you know. Women are supposed to be sensitive beings. There are always all kinds of people both men and women .. but this quite surprised me.
Maybe , as Ship said i am lucky to have good people around me.

It is there in your country as well, look at your caste system. Look at the arranged marriages, the fact that they are looking for a certain caste for prosperity. Yeah I know that those are going by the wayside there, but it is still around.
Discrimination will always feed off of hate and misunderstanding.

uhoh . . i mean the caste and religion discrimination is rampant here and i feel terrible being a part of it , passively following it and not being able to do much ... as people are beyond logic.
Discrimination .. includes race , religion everything. Previously i was being myopic .. you made me see the bigger picture.

I did .. you know i was thinking .. that a simple word can have so many meanings all causing distress in real life. We see what we know and fail at times to envision the things beyond personal experience but which are real as well.

Thats okay, Riya. We know it is rampant everywhere, that no matter where we live we cannot escape it. Nor can we change the world as a whole, but you can change it one person at a time. Because people in a group are sheep.
But then again who is to say ours is the right view either.

Rolling Stone Magazine once carried an ad that said "Intolerance Breeds Quality." Very interesting concept...

Discrimination works both ways.
Sometimes the people who shout the loudest about discrimination, labelling and generalizations
do it themselves, openly.
They just cannot see it.

Honest story to share on the thread.
I coach soccer (fotbol to many of you others) here in the States.
Usually it is men's or college age club programs that I am working
with. In the mid 90s, I had been coaching a Junior College team for
two seasons......and it was a good side.
We have Disney in the area and student/athletes from all over the world come here to work at Disney and go to school. That now sets
the stage for the story.
My 3rd year, I have 125 trying out for a team of 25. I also have 19
returning players. So really it is 106 trying out for 6 openings on the team. One of the new players trying out was 'openly gay' and he was also black. He was also all-state and a excellent player.
Came time for the final team cut. And I selected him to make the team.
After the list was posted. I had the captian, co-captian and another player come to me and said "Coach don't you know what you have done? Whom you have selected?"
I said yes, I knew. Also said that this player was going to play a key role in thier teams success this year as player. That I select players on
how they play and what they will do on the field to improve the team.
Not on whom or what they are.
None on the team every said anything to me again on the subject.
The team was undefeated state champions that season. He played a key role in starting most the matches and provided speed in our defense that had been lacking the season prior. He was a key piece to that season's success.
Moral of the story is this. If you are in a leadership position and you let
race, religion, color effect your decisions. You will miss excellent talent that will improve your group/team/effort. I also had 5 Islamic players on the side.
If you are not trying to build a organization with diversity as a key element. Then you already have the competitor that embraces it, have
a competitive edge on you.
Merry Christmas All
