[QUOTE="Amelie, post: 510872, member: 1287"] No, that wouldn't change anything- thats my point- i would already know them, i would have got to know them (and rightly so) as simply the people they are. Its all great saying you don't have a problem with something, but you know- unfortunatly nurture is deep rooted eh- i was brought up in a house where it was deffo seen as wrong, and although i make no consious choice to find gay people slightly, i dunno, different i have only the last 10 years or so of my own thinking to back that up. The rest of my mind has that deep rooted notion that my parents gave me- even though i disagree with it now. Thats what i mean by subconcious, you might think you have a certain view on things, but sometimes the way yu have been brought up, or any influence for that matter can sneak in without you even thinking about it. I don't class myself as racist, far from it- yet i was brought up to think that Indian people were some homogenous group of 'dirty paki's' as my dad calls them. I have always hated this, yet a few months ago when i was trying to make an insurance claim and i was trying for ages to describe sheet to an Asian lady, i must admit i thought, just for a second that i couldn't be arsed with the breakdown in lang, that, infact she was a bit stupid for not understanding- why couldn't we just have bloody English staff. This is wrong, but again its slight bits of your upbring, and the pressure form media etc that surley play some kind of role in the way you view individuals (rightly or wrongly). [/QUOTE]
