      What combination creates the most discriminated person?

      I'm trying to think of what is the most discriminated combination of person.



      I'm thinking...

      Black, teenage, gay, (female or male?), (now here's a country specific part) in the U.S. I would say Muslim/Atheist/witch/devil worshipper, (sadly yes, I think in the eyes of the public these four are almost equal lol) worker at an abortion clinic.


      I can't decide which is worse on gender. Is it worse to be a female or male, when coupled with homosexuality when thought of as discriminated against? Obviously women are more discriminated against than women, but he preference factor changes it?

      Jealousy does not a discrimination make...

      I should probably add Jews to the list...since just last year a Jew got jumped in public after he responded to "merry christmas" with "happy hainuka." The only person who came to his aid was a Muslim.

      Although the rich white male is in control right now, he is always wrong when it comes to civil liberty debates.

      Example. Do you think a white man could take a Harlem barber-shop to court for not being hired because of his color?

      Its the same deal with racial slurs. Black comedians say "cracker" all the time. The last time I heard a white comedian say "nigger", it was a media fiasco (Kramer from Sienfeld)

      If a black man says "BLACK POWER!!!" with his fist in the air, he is considered courageous. If a white man says "WHITE POWER" with his fist in the air, he is a racist. Whitey is always wrong.

      I'd say an interracial atheist lesbian couple attempting to adopt a white baby.

      Lol if you were white why the hell would you want to work in some black ghetto barbershop?

      That Kramer thing....was he not angry and screaming it? I agree black comedians like Chris Rock use nigger alot. but white comedians use the word nigger too. Look up Doug Stanhope.

      I don't know about that black power thing being seen as courageous, we don't see that in the UK too much, can you give an example?

      Indians and/or Middle Easterners are probably the most fiercely discriminated against, today, as far as ethnicity goes - in America, at least.

      Though I don't necessarily disagree with that...

      Yes. I can't speculate on what the outcome would be, but yes. He could.

      There is reasoning behind both of these points. Would you like me to explain them to you?

      I don't know oneironaut.
      The nigger thing yeah I can see that...but we can't call black people anything! I can't even call you a spook. (I think your black right? Fuck if I remember)

      Yet you can call me anything and everything under the sun in reference to white. Its like being black is such a bad thing that referring to a black person by his color at all is horrible! WTF?

      What do you think would happen if you said you were a proud black man? Nothing. No one would think anything of it.

      If I say I'm a proud white man, I'm suddenly in the klu klux klan.



      Need I say more?

      hmm...white the more desirable skin color?

      last I check the trend today was tans, both dark and light tans. a lot of whities are too embarrassed to show off their legs unless they spray them. lest their glowing legs blinds everyone.

      the most discriminated?

      is going to be a man, he is going to be gay. his religious background will be different than norm in the area. he is going to be the color minority of the area. (when I mean area I mean if its a black community, then the color minority might be white)

      so it really depends on the area

      I say man, because I feel : male gays are still 'hated' more than lesbians. traditionally racists have been more distrusting of black/hispanic males then black/hispanic females

      when a female is discriminated, I feel the issue is gender more than color/race/orientation or religious background

      at least thats how I feel

      I do not agree that middle easterners are the most discriminated. ive seen so many middle easterners rise on the economic chart twice as fast as hispanics. ive never seen a middle eastern hold a shitty job like janitor, when every janitor ive met was hispanic. I do see however, a lot of middle easterners isolated in society, in their own niches. however, theres a reason why - many of the ones I see walking around AREN'T SPEAKING ENGLISH. I'm not saying they don't speak english, just saying for obvious reasons they choose to speak in a language they are comfortable with in a social setting.

      but, its a language that is not popular in the US. it isolates them because it makes them feel like 'foreigners'. that they are not american - they just live here. language is a huge factor in america. the majority of us consider someone more american if they speak english in a public setting. I would say spanish is the only other 'american' language, but that depends on how large the hispanic population is in your city.

      Black females.

      Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.

      I don't agree with that. There are a lot of black females who are considered heroes by the masses. Diana Ross, Donna Summer, Venus Williams, Oprah Winfrey, Halle Berry, Florence Griffith Joyner, lots of others. Things aren't like they used to be.
      You are dreaming right now.

      What about somebody of Roma (Gypsy) descent? IMO they seem to be more discriminated against in the US than even blacks or other minorities. Even in popular media, it's still considered perfectly okay to stereotype and disparage them.

      I don't know if they count because no one even thinks about them...and you can't really tell them apart from normal people until they start doing rituals (people at hospitals absolutely hate them for their crazy practices, once the docters walked away and came back to a room full of lit candles wall to wall X.X)

      And those women have some of the strongest psyches in their professions. It's not like a terrible thing, states of oppression give people strength, and from their economic oppression the strongest black americans are thriving. I just have to say though, and it might be racist, but no one deals with as much bullshit as a black female living in a black neighborhood.

      Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.
