Discrimination.

This week I've been feeling like having a bit of rant and a moan. You see, when someone rubs me up the wrong way, or I strongly disagree with something someone has said or doen, I'm not afraid to tell them that I think they're wrong. Now I understand everyone's entitled to their own opinion - I think everyone should, it's important that every child growing up learns to have and voice their own opinion - but if their opinion will upset, hurt or discrimate someone that it should not be heard.

I've taken PE as an A level, and in one of our lessons recently we were discussing "state and trait" personalities. "State and Trait" is when you feel one way about something and in a normal situation you were act like you wanted to, for example if you were discussing racism or homosexuals or something that maybe be offensive to someone like that with a friend, you could voice your true opinion and your friend may disagree but nothign would come about it. The other side to this, however, is if you're put in a different situation, for example, say you had to write an article for a newspaper or do a speech at a school, you would act and write how you think you should, without voicing your true opinion incase in influenced others to feel or at this way. This is true for most people, and there is definately a time and a place for everything.

What the problem with everything? Why is it a problem is someone is white and someone else isn't? There is not need to any kind of racism. The thng that annoys me the most is if someone is sexist. I cannot sttand sexist men who think they're better that females. They're egotistical, annoying and they always thing they can do things 10 times better than woman when the majority of the time the can't. For this reason, when women and sexist about men, I usually defend men because it's hypocrital of me otherwise.

Any kind of inequality, homophobics, sexism, racism, any other kind of phobic or ism. There's just no need. If they're not the same race as you, that's not their fault, and they shouldn't be treated differently because of it. If they want to be gay, or a greebo or a chav or just different from you in any way, just let them! It's their choice to be who they are, just as it's your choice to be who you are.

And why do we have to keep changing the phrases of things so that they're policitally correct? It gets so confusing, there seems to be a new phrase or term every week. In my opinion, it's ridiculous. We've been studying language change in English Language. I'm sorry if I'm ever politically incorrect but I can't seem to keep up.

I tend to speak my mind and tell people how they feel. But I don't do it out of place. Sometimes it is better - and easier - to hold you emotions in, let them out in a different way, not by telling the person how you feel but maybe by playing a sport, punching a pillow or singing your heart out for a while.
But sometimes people can't learn and improve if they don't know what it is they're doing wrong. As long as you're not too harsh, too mean and you give someone constructive criticism, or you tell them you opinion in a fir argument while taking into consideration their point of view, then there is no problem.


I love writing blogs. This is the way I release my emotion.

Oh and maybe singing my heart out every now and again. That kind of works for me.
