Prejudice.
I once had a student borne in the U.K.whoonce said; when sweating heavily, to another lecturer in answer to a question about working hard, ''that not sweat that's Chocolate''.
He suffered a very telling shock when he went out to work & found that he was treated as many blacks are or were at that time 30 yrs ago.
At collage it wasn't noticed by most of us as he had a purely Southern UK accent.
Many thing prompt a negative response in us.
Smell just think about those who do who are they part of a group, did you know some who did in the past.?
Beards because someone with one, is imprinted in you memory for one reason or another.
A National History backed up by further poor experiences of some of a Country's nationals. Small mindedness on my part not looking at a race in it's entirety because of some effect on my feelings.
How about how different people pray in your presence ? Some totally silent, some very freely with no thinking time, some are just read out !!!!! Have you been there.?
What about those funny Christians who wave their hands in the air? & on & on & on.
Knowing your (Our ) faults means we can face them & deal with them but we can't ignore
our dislikes or bias one way or another. We're in a much happier place when we are face
